ALSO.
California
About ALSO.

We’re ALSO, an electric mobility company originally conceived as a part of Rivian. We’re a passionate team of builders, dreamers, doers and innovators, focused on creating entirely new (not to mention, innovative and delightful) vertically integrated, small EVs designed to meet the global mobility challenges of today and tomorrow. Our mission is to inspire everyone to ride ALSO—replacing many local car, truck and SUV miles with ones on vehicles that are more affordable, more enjoyable and 10-50x more efficient.

The Role

As a Sr. Validation & Tools Engineer focusing on web and cloud validation, you’ll ensure quality across the entire ecosystem of our connected e-mobility platform from our customers’ first touchpoint at purchase to the cloud systems that power the vehicles. You’ll design and execute manual and automated tests for web applications, APIs, and cloud integrations, while also validating data telemetry and end-to-end connectivity. Working closely with developers, data, and product teams, you will build confidence in every release and drive automation and monitoring to speed up validation velocity.

This is a highly cross-functional role and the right candidate must be able to move comfortably between web and IOT domains, and enjoy turning complex testing procedures into scalable frameworks and dashboards. Also they will have a level of independence and autonomy to drive initiatives & follow through on implementations.

What You Will Do

  • Develop and maintain manual and automated test suites covering the full user journey on Also’s digital systems - from e-commerce purchase and account creation through cloud connectivity of the flagship product.
  • Create automation frameworks to test web UI, APIs, and cloud integrations.
  • Partner with web, cloud, and firmware teams to design and execute end-to-end system validation, confirming reliable data flow between bike, cloud, and user interfaces.
  • Build and maintain dashboards and analytics to visualize vehicle telemetry and OTA update metrics.
  • Collaborate with developers and product managers to identify, reproduce, triage, and resolve bugs quickly - contributing to root-cause analyses and continuous improvement.
  • Contribute to a CI/CD testing pipeline, enabling fast feedback loops for web and cloud releases.
  • Manage SIL and HIL test environments using Automation framework, driving a critical role in SW/HW integration with the cloud backend.
  • Bring an ownership mindset to quality and define clear metrics and build automated reports to drive broad communication and system stability.

What You Will Bring

  • BS or MS in Computer Science or related field.
  • 5+ years experience in software validation and hands-on programming, embedded software/firmware development, preferably with vertically integrated consumer products. Automotive systems is a plus.
  • Experience testing web applications, APIs, and cloud-based systems, ideally using tools like Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, or Postman.
  • Strong programming skills in Python or similar for automation and data validation.
  • Familiarity with AWS or equivalent cloud ecosystem.
  • Experience designing an end-to-end test that covers multiple systems and codebases.
  • Exposure to data validation and IOT testing preferred - OTA stress tests, validating data upload, and downstream integrity.
  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills - able to work across firmware, cloud, and web disciplines.
  • Experience in CI/CD automation workflows (Jenkins or similar).
  • Familiarity with UDS or XCP protocols.
  • Expertise in various protocols and their physical layers (CAN, CAN-FD, USB-PD etc)
  • Familiarity with real-time operating system platforms, ideally in functional-safety critical applications
  • Familiarity with hardware/software architecture selection with cost and performance tradeoffs (OS, MCU, etc… selection).
  • Passion for and demonstrated proficiency in working with cross-functional hardware and software teams.

The salary for this position ranges from $170,000 - $200,000 per year, depending on experience and qualifications.

Perks & Benefits

  • Robust health coverage — excellent health, dental, and vision insurance covered up to 100% by ALSO, with FSA & HSA options
  • One Medical membership and dedicated insurance advocates
  • Rich fertility and family-building benefits with Progyny
  • Flexible time off
  • 401(k) match

Why ALSO.

We’re passionate about helping the world find a better way to get there—wherever it is you’re headed.

We’re located in the heart of Silicon Valley and have brought together a world-class team from some of the biggest brands in the technology, automotive, cycling, outdoor recreation and retail spaces.

Together we’re working hands-on to imagine, design and build an entirely new solution to a global set of transportation challenges.
