Remote flexibility

Undisclosed

The listing is advertised as remote but does not state which countries or regions candidates may work from.

Why this role is Undisclosed

We only label a role Work from anywhere, Region restricted or Work from home when the employer's own wording says so. We checked this advert under our current rules and found no country or region eligibility requirement in it. We don't guess, so it stays Undisclosed until the employer publishes enough location information. Here is exactly what the advert left out.

  • Countries you can work from: Not stated. The advert only gives "remote", which names no country you must live in.
  • Whether the work is remote: Confirmed by the employer: "Senior SDET, Back End [Remote-US]"
  • Working hours: Stated: Async.

Worth a look all the same. Missing wording is usually a rushed job posting rather than a closed door, so ask where you can be based in your first message, before you write a tailored application.

What the employer says

  • Source listing states candidate location: "remote"

What Nomaders makes of it

  • No residency or region requirement found in the job description
  • Check with the employer before assuming you can work from abroad

The quotes above are the employer's own words; the reading is ours. Always check the original listing and employment terms before working from another country.

The Role

We’re looking for an accomplished, well-rounded Senior Software Development Engineer in Test (Sr SDET) to help improve the quality and reliability of services that support insurance products and business workflows.

This hands-on role requires deep backend testing experience, strong programming ability, and ownership of scalable test automation.

The individual will validate service behavior and cross-system interactions, strengthen automated delivery checks, and help teams identify defects early in cloud-hosted, distributed environments.

Your Day-to-Day

Design, build, test, and maintain shared automation frameworks, internal services, and developer tools that serve multiple QA and engineering teams.

Own test strategy and execution for backend APIs, microservices, and end-to-end business workflows, balancing component, contract, integration, and system-level coverage.

Validate business rules, API contracts, data persistence, authorization, error handling, and compatibility across services.

Establish reliable automated checks in continuous integration and delivery pipelines, improving feedback speed and reducing flaky tests.

Validate cloud-hosted services and deployment configurations; troubleshoot failures using application logs, service telemetry, and infrastructure evidence.

Assess performance and resilience risks, design targeted tests, and collaborate with engineers to address identified weaknesses.

Review requirements and architecture, communicate quality risks, and mentor engineers while independently driving complex testing work.

Perform other related duties as assigned.
