Mac OS X/iOS Software Test Pilot Seattle, WA (Sorry, no telecommute/remote work opportunities right now.) Us: a Seattle software company that's been around since 1989. Back then, we wrote code for NeXTStep; these days, we make highly-regarded productivity applications for Mac OS X & iOS. You: someone who can make guesses about how a website or application is going to fail, prove that you're right, and then communicate it clearly and effectively to the folks who need to fix it. Ideally, you also have the ability to predict the things about our products that will confuse or dismay a new customer. As an example of what we do, imagine we have four months to write, test, and ship two applications on a brand-new hardware platform (with no specimens of said hardware in the building) while still updating and maintaining our released products on both platforms. Could you keep up without going totally crazy in the process? If so, we'd like to hear from you — we're looking to expand our QA department by adding another Software Test Pilot. For more information about us, including how to apply for this job, please check out the "Company" section of our website, which is at http://www.omnigroup.com/company/.
