At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.
The Rider Quality team is a critical starting point for this mission - but we're not doing traditional QA. We’re building the future of quality engineering.
This is an opportunity to step into a mid-level role where you’ll do more than write code - you’ll help build and evolve systems that improve how engineers deliver products faster, happier, and with fewer bugs. We are shifting away from manual processes and legacy automation frameworks, and investing in Artificial Intelligence and agentic approaches to drive a meaningful “shift left” across the organization.
Success in this role is measured by tangible impact, including improvements in developer experience, engineering efficiency, and reductions in production issues.
What you'll accomplish:
About the Team
The Rider Quality team focuses on elevating quality, testing, and accessibility across our mobile platforms. We are evolving our strategy to leverage automation and AI to transform how testing is done.
Our philosophy is to empower developers to self-serve rather than rely on centralized bottlenecks. By building smart, automated tooling, we aim to remove friction and enable teams to move faster with confidence.
The Role
We are looking for a skilled and motivated Software Engineer to join our team. You will contribute to building the next generation of our quality platform, including AI-powered tooling for test generation, validation, and execution.
You’ll work closely with senior engineers to integrate these tools into developer workflows, helping ensure seamless adoption and measurable impact. This is a great opportunity for someone with a strong engineering foundation who is interested in automation and applying emerging technologies to real-world quality challenges.
