Who we are
Hammer Media is the digital media powerhouse behind Caleb Hammer and the hit show Financial Audit.
In just three years, we’ve built one of the internet's fastest-growing brands, amassing over 3 million subscribers and 3 billion views!
Our mission scales through Dollarwise, a financial health platform that transforms viral content into practical tools. By bridging the gap between entertainment and FinTech, we provide personalized resources that empower users to master their habits and take control of their financial future.
Join us as we build the ultimate ecosystem for financial literacy and long-term growth.
About the Role
We’re looking for a QA Engineer to own quality across Dollarwise. This isn’t a “run test cases” role. You’ll build the systems that ensure everything we ship works the way it should, especially when real people are relying on it to make better financial decisions. This role is critical to ensuring our products are reliable, scalable, and deliver a seamless user experience at every touchpoint.
You’ll partner closely with the Head of Engineering, product, and a small group of senior engineers to architect the testing infrastructure, uncover edge cases, and drive issues to resolution. You’ll own projects end-to-end—from shaping how we test to what gets deployed—and you’ll see your work impact users quickly.
What You’ll Do:
Build and own the end-to-end testing framework. You’re responsible for making sure what we ship works—consistently, reliably, and at scale
Design and own our testing framework across mobile and backend
Leverage AI tools to rapidly generate test cases and edge scenarios
Support regression testing and optimize CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Docker, AWS) so bad builds never make it out
Continuously improve how we test, what we test, and how confident we are every time we ship
Raise the standard of the codebase—clean abstractions, comprehensive testing, and code reviews that push quality higher with every commit
Who You Are:
You’ve built or owned testing systems—not just executed them
Strong experience with automation tools (Selenium, Cypress, Vitest, etc.)
Experience with automated testing in mobile apps
Comfortable testing APIs (Postman, RestAssured, or similar)
Familiar with CI/CD and modern deployment workflows
You think in edge cases and failure modes, not just happy paths
Highly detail-oriented, but fast—you don’t sacrifice speed or quality
You take ownership. You don’t wait to be told what to test—you figure out what matters
Solid understanding of security best practices, especially around authentication, authorization, and protecting sensitive data
Why Join Us? (The Perks):
We are an in-office team in East Austin because we believe the best ideas happen when we’re in the same room. Our culture is high-energy, collaborative, and focused on radical accountablity.
Relocation Assistance: Not in Austin? No problem. We provide a relocation package to help the right candidate join us here
Awesome Office & Team: Work from our East Austin office with a stocked snack bar, catered lunches, and a team that actually likes spending time together
Unlimited PTO: We trust you to manage your time and your results
Health & Wealth: 100% coverage for employee health, dental, and vision, plus a 401(k) with a company match
Lunch & Events: Lunch stipend and quarterly team-building activities (we go big on our events)
Pet-friendly: There’s a good chance you’ll be greeted by a few wagging tails when you walk through the door
