About the team role
We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world’s biggest financial problems. We’re looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn’t a place for complacency, it’s where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We’re a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards.
At Robinhood, Quality Engineering (QE) is a critical function within our broader engineering organization. We serve as the final line of defense for product quality—empowering teams to ship confidently by embedding robust test strategies, running critical end-to-end checks, and maintaining automation systems that scale with our product velocity. Our mission is to uphold a high bar for customer experience, especially during P0 launches, through a mix of technical expertise, test execution, and cross-functional collaboration.
As a Staff Quality Engineer, you will support high-impact product launches by designing test strategies, executing manual and automated testing, and partnering with our contractor team on regression test cycles. This role requires someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, cares deeply about the customer experience, and is eager to shape the test infrastructure behind Robinhood’s iOS, Android, and Web apps.
This role is based in our Menlo Park office, with in-person attendance expected at least 3 days per week.
At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in-person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community. Our office experience is intentional, energizing, and designed to fully support high-performing teams.
