Senior QA Engineer

This role is hybrid with 3 days in office (Cracow)

The Basics:  

Tanium QA Engineers are responsible for testing products built on the Tanium platform. This will involve working with developers and product managers to construct & execute test plans, plan for functional, performance & regression testing, file detailed bugs, and providing visibility through project updates.

  • Strong experience with virtualization - VMware, Hyper-V, UTM, and similar
  • Proficient with scripting languages - shell, Python, PowerShell, etc., and familiar with their use for streamlining day to day tasks
