What You'll Achieve.
At least 15 engineers across 5+ teams are independently writing E2E tests within six months of widespread release.; Reducing daily manual review effort by 80% and proving reliable enough to extend to the release pipeline.; Enable at least three teams to complete release assessments without direct QE involvement.; Ensure no critical gaps in E2E coverage or delivery confidence.; Increasing the number of product teams writing their own E2E tests to at least 50% within the first 12 months.
Industry & Context.

Nice to Have
You prefer clearly defined processes and established playbooks over building the systems and standards from first principles in a rapidly evolving environment., You're more comfortable being the person who delivers quality work directly rather than enabling others to build that capability themselves, or you measure success primarily by your own output rather than what teams can achieve independently., You view AI tools with scepticism or aren't genuinely curious about how to apply them practically to solve real engineering problems, or you're unwilling to learn new languages and frameworks as the problem demands.

Communicating trade-offs clearly to non-specialist engineers
Full Job Description
ABOUT HYPEREXPONENTIAL (HX) At hyperexponential, we're building the AI-powered platform that enables the world's most critical decisions in a $7 trillion industry, which risks to take, and how to price them. These are the decisions that shape real-world outcomes: whether rockets successfully launch into space, autonomous vehicles make it to market, or communities recover after major storms. Until now, insurance has been making billion-dollar decisions using outdated tools. We're changing that. Our platform brings together data, AI, and human expertise to give insurers the fastest path from submission to decision - helping them move faster, act smarter, and take on more risk with confidence. Backed by a16z, Highland Europe, and Battery Ventures, we're scaling globally - already trusted by nearly 50 of the world's largest insurers, with zero churn and billions in premiums flowing through hx. What began as a single product in one market has rapidly evolved into a multi-product, multi-territory platform powering every stage of pricing and underwriting. AI is at the core of what we do - from building the world's first domain-specific AI peer programmer for insurance (think GitHub Copilot with a PhD in actuarial science) to shaping agentic workflows that reinvent how this industry operates. What makes hx different is the people who build it. Here, impact isn't tied to title or tenure; it's defined by the challenges you take on and the discipline you bring. Surrounded by peers who stretch you, you'll do the best, hardest work of your life in a company engineered to endure. If that sounds like you, join us in building what comes next. ABOUT THE TEAM Quality Engineering at hx is undergoing a strategic shift. We're moving from an embedded model, where QEs sit in product teams and deliver hands-on testing, to an enablement model, where a small central team builds the tools, standards, and coaching that help every engineer own quality. It's one of hx's boldest engineering exper
