Onebrief makes military planning seamless and represents a shift in paradigm for future military decisions. It is an all-in-one tool that supports both the creative and process-oriented aspects of military planning. In Onebrief, planners use maps, boards, diagrams, timelines, slides and written products to create their plans—all while sharing a common database. Everything stays in sync, in real time. Our approach has been refined and validated through hundreds of user experiments.
Our product is currently in broad use at 8 of the largest military headquarters in the world. 3 of the 4 biggest operational plans in the US are currently built with Onebrief. Last year, we achieved 100% gross retention and 158% net retention—our revenue grew 4x and reached double-digit millions. We are backed by Y Combinator (S21) and top-tier VCs, including Caffeinated Capital (Affirm, Docker, Notion, and more) and Human Capital (Andruil, Brex, Snowflake, and more), and have raised a total of $44.6M in venture capital. Our elite team combines the best of tech and military talent, including education and experience at Google, Twitter, Adobe, MIT, Harvard, Special Operations, TOPGUN, and more.
As a quality champion, you will hold your engineering team(s) accountable for meeting the right release quality bar in the following ways:
Weighing in early in the dev cycle (during the design process), to identify rabbit-holes and potential problems in areas like performance, security, usability, and unintended cascading breakage in adjacent areas — before code is written
Developing test plans, quality-related procedures (like bug bashes, defect triage, etc.), and documentation that support developers as they build new features
Writing automated tests at multiple layers of the pyramid (unit, integration, e2e) with the goal of always shifting defect detection as far left as possible
Coordinating with other teams to communicate how your teams’ work will impact their work — before it is merged
Conducting exploratory testing and root cause analysis as needed, and mentoring others in this skill
Exercising excellent judgement to identify and negotiate quality trade-offs that will inevitably arise in a software development environment that’s highly responsive to customer demand
Working with your fellow engineers to develop first class quality metrics that align with overall quality strategy, with a focus on monitoring and observability
You’re an experienced quality engineer who knows how to break stuff — a thoughtful meticulous professional who brings discipline and craftsmanship to the pursuit of making resilient well-tested software. You love working directly with designers and software engineers to develop and share patterns and practices that ensure the products you build and release as a team meet the highest standards. You are also an effective agent of change and an outstanding communicator.
We’re in the defense space, so we’re looking for someone excited about our mission, eager to contribute to a growing startup, in a high-trust autonomous environment where everyone has a seat at the table. As an early member of our growing Quality team, you will be making a foundational and massive impact in the product and growth trajectory of the company.
Knowledge of industry-standard quality engineering practices, along with solid opinions on when it’s OK to break the rules / dispense with conventional wisdom
3+ years of experience writing test automation at the unit and integration layer of the pyramid for a React-based or React-like web application using any of the following:
Mocha
Jest
Cypress
Playwright
Creatively implementing shift left methodologies that demonstratively led to higher code quality
Proven ability to mentor engineers in best practices around quality assurance practices in general and/or test automation specifically
Nice to haves — experience maintaining CI/CD pipelines that make use of:
Github Actions (or similar) declarative pipelines
Contract testing
Visual regression testing, either homegrown or 3rd party
API endpoint testing
Load and/or performance testing
Log analysis with a tool like: Datadog, Kibana, or Prometheus
Docker, Kubernetes
Most importantly, you are a true Onebriefer:
You are obsessed with creating value for real users
You are ambitious, scrappy, and a creative problem-solver
You learn quickly, work iteratively, and naturally seek collaboration
You approach your work with integrity, intellectual honesty, and a low ego
You communicate frankly, clearly, and succinctly
You thrive as a self-starter, embracing autonomy and ambiguity
You are a U.S. citizen
