About Mighty Acorn

At Mighty Acorn, we make it easier for governments to deliver world-class digital services. From renewing a fishing license to applying for unemployment benefits, we build digital services that deliver government programs reliably, smoothly, and quickly.

Our vision is a world where “good enough for government work” returns to its pedestal: fast, reliable, and frustration-free. We achieve this by empowering people, increasing transparency, breaking down silos, and moving together toward a shared goal.

One of our core beliefs is that automation can help drive transformation of complex digital services, and we’re especially excited to bring DevOps and automated testing practices into our work.

While our team averages 10+ years of experience in the industry, we are a relatively new (formed in 2023) professional services company. Our government clients engage us to improve their digital products and services in a way that ensures better outcomes for their users and stakeholders. That means our clients hire us for our expertise, which we bill our time for.

About the role

What you’ll do:

  • Build automated testing systems to test functionality and performance of large-scale software projects.

  • Write Typescript code to do browser automation using Playwright.

  • Come up with solutions to complex problems such as how to set up mock data across multiple distributed systems, or how to simulate realistic traffic for load testing. 

  • Work across multiple scrum teams to find new and novel solutions for helping teams deliver value faster and with less bugs.

  • Work with manual testers to automate labor-intensive processes.

  • Advocate for DevOps principles such as tight feedback loops, iterative development, and open communication.

What you’ll bring:

  • 7+ years of Software Engineering experience.

  • 3+ years of Typescript/Javascript experience.

  • Experience using browser automation tools such as Playwright, Puppeteer, or Cypress.

  • Experience in testing or optimizing performance of web applications.

  • Familiarity with popular web development technologies, third-party applications, and platforms.

It would be a bonus if you also had:

  • Experience working on infrastructure, particularly Terraform on AWS.

  • Experience working with Salesforce.

  • Experience working in professional services or government digital services.

  • Experience building products and services for all users, regardless of ability, backed by knowledge of accessibility standards (Section 508 Refresh/WCAG 2.0 A and AA).

  • Experience or an interest in sharing your knowledge and experience at industry conferences.

Other requirements:

  • An ability to work efficiently, sometimes under tight deadlines.

  • A preference for transparency and an ability to be direct and transparent in your own communication.

  • An ability to adapt quickly and cope with temporarily ambiguous situations as requirements change.

  • This role requires work be performed from within the contiguous United States.

  • Candidates must either hold active US citizenship or a green card, and should possess work authorization that does not require any present or future visa sponsorship by Mighty Acorn Digital.

  • Candidates selected for the role must pass a criminal background check prior to their start date.

  • Candidates must have a fast (>100Mbps) and reliable internet connection and have a dedicated workspace with background noise at an appropriate level for audio calls.

  • Candidates must possess at least a Bachelor's degree.

Our recruiting process is generally as follows:

While we try to get back to all candidates quickly, it generally takes us a few weeks to review a submission. If after reviewing your submission we’d like to learn more about you, we’ll invite you to submit a brief, 3-4 question one-way video interview so that we can learn more about your experience and motivations as they relate to the role. If your answers have us thinking you’d be a great addition to the team, we’ll reach out to schedule 2-3 interviews with members of our team. Regardless, we make it a priority to notify all candidates of the outcome of their application.

Please only submit through this application.

Please apply only through this application process. Direct emails regarding this position will be ignored, unless you're seeking a reasonable accommodation. Further, we are not seeking partnerships with recruiters or agencies for this role, and unsolicited resumes will not be considered. Only candidates that apply through this application will be considered and please do not also send your application materials directly in a follow up email.
