The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  MGM is hiring a Quality Assurance Manager in Columbia, SC.

• Role description

  This is a Quality Assurance Manager position for the person who automated their own job once and immediately wanted to do it again. The whole arrangement rewards initiative — $93,000 - $151,000 to start, technology ownership throughout, and MGM backing every step.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Reproduce the quality-focused bug from the Columbia field report, then make it impossible again
  • Stress-test Pytest systems until they bend, then harden where they cracked
  • Question the trust-the-team Pytest pattern everyone copied and propose something cleaner
  • Stitch Zephyr events into the Karate pipeline feeding MGM's technology reports
  • Pull MGM's Attention to Detail stack out of the SC region before the migration deadline
  • Automate the manual JUnit chores that quietly drain Columbia, SC engineering hours
  • Own data integrity across MGM's BDD stores so Columbia numbers never lie
  • Build internal tooling that improves developer productivity and velocity

  What You'll Bring

  • 8+ years that left you with strong instincts and few illusions
  • Sound instincts for reading a room you've never been in before
  • Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
  • Manager fluency in Karate, with Networking on your roadmap
  • Sharp written and verbal communication, tested under scrutiny

  MGM is the oddball-friendly Columbia company that turned a niche technology obsession into something the whole SC now uses. Our Columbia office runs on mutual respect, low ego, and a genuine willingness to help.

  Combine $93,000 - $151,000 with growth, generous benefits, and a mentor, and you have the reason people stay at MGM for years.

  Hiring as we speak in Columbia, with daily reviews still underway.
