Job Description

Job Title: Quality Assurance Engineer

Location: Miami, FL (Hybrid, Remote Considered)

About Aldea
Headquartered in Miami, Aldea is a multidisciplinary team of builders, researchers, and product thinkers. We value clear thinking, sharp writing, and strong intuition for what people need. This is a rare opportunity to join an early-stage startup that will help define a new category.

The Role
We’re hiring a Quality Assurance Engineer to join our Engineering team. This is a new role, created to enhance the reliability and performance of our AI infrastructure. You’ll be instrumental in building and maintaining a high-quality test suite that supports Aldea’s speech-related APIs and broader platform development.

This role is critical to our technical success, with a focus on test development and quality assurance. You’ll be responsible for creating and maintaining unit, integration, and end-to-end tests across backend systems, starting with our text-to-speech and speech-to-speech APIs. In your first 90 days, success means implementing robust test coverage for these core systems.

We’re looking for someone with at least 5 years of experience in software quality assurance or backend test engineering. This is a highly cross-functional role: you’ll collaborate with engineers, product managers, and infrastructure leads to ensure we ship scalable, reliable, and high-performing systems.

What you’ll do

  • Design, develop, and maintain automated unit, integration, and end-to-end tests
  • Lead QA strategy for backend systems, starting with speech-related APIs
  • Work closely with backend engineers to integrate testing into the development lifecycle
  • Identify and document bugs, edge cases, and test coverage gaps
  • Contribute to CI/CD workflows to ensure smooth deployments
  • Help define and track KPIs for quality and performance over time

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in QA engineering or backend test development (non-negotiable)
  • Experience with GitOps, AI, and Python
  • Expertise in automated testing frameworks and QA best practices
  • Experience writing tests for APIs and distributed backend systems
  • Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment
  • Excellent communication and documentation skills

Nice-to-Have

  • Experience with speech processing technologies
  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, etc.)
  • Background in performance and load testing for API systems

This is a role for a systems-minded engineer who wants to drive quality across a growing platform. You’ll play a foundational role in ensuring our technology scales smoothly—while enabling innovative AI products to reach the world faster, more reliably, and with greater impact.

Benefits

We are a well-funded, Seed-stage company preparing for launch. We offer:

  • Competitive base salary
  • Performance-based bonus based on achieving goals
  • Equity participation
  • Comprehensive benefits, including health, dental, vision, and paid time off
  • Flexible work environment—based in Miami, hybrid OK. Remote considered.
  • Option to start on a contract basis with potential for full-time hire
