About the Role & Team:Workflows in HighLevel are a key part of our automation platform. They handle important tasks like following up with leads, onboarding clients, and scheduling appointments. Workflows connect with different modules, such as Contacts, Calendars, Email, SMS, Calls, Triggers, Webhooks, and external APIs. This makes them complex and dynamic.
As an SDET3 for Workflows, you will test these flows from start to finish. Your job is to make sure they are reliable, even at large scale. You will work with both backend and UI parts of the system, and you will team up with people from different groups. This role is important and involves many testing challenges.
