Hello! We are Gehtsoft USA LLC, registered with our main office located in the state of North Carolina, in the city of Raleigh. The company has been in operation since 2000, and since 2008, we have been active in the USA.
Our primary focus is custom software development,
but not in the conventional sense of "outsourcing" or "outstaffing."
We specialize in situations where the client may not have a
clear understanding of what needs to be done or how to accomplish it.
It would be more accurate to describe our work as "turnkey product development."
However, we currently do not have our own products — perhaps because,
as the saying goes, "the cobbler's children have no shoes."
We specialize in custom software development, "turnkey product creation." The main client is FXCM. We have professionals and engineers; what do we mean by this? We have no "management"; no one tells us what to do, no one assigns tasks and plans the day. Each employee is an independent unit, and each team is cross-functional. A professional knows WHAT needs to be done, WHY, what the PRIORITY is, and can defend it to the team/business. We have 100% code coverage with tests; we are unique; we are professionals; we have no room for error. We work in pure Scrum, with a weekly sprint. Daily, from the first day of work, we expect increments and excellent performance (in our understanding, from the first day, you must deliver a ready piece of the project, a completed goal). We do not talk about what we did, how we did it, and why. We set specific goals and report on their achievement. We work empirically; for a week (sprint), we test a hypothesis, receiving results daily.
We are the place for the crazy ones. We are perfectionists who understand the meaning of the MVP. We are idealists who want to do things right. We are life-long learners who think that we are never good enough to stop. We are a wolf pack that values situational leadership and personal accountability. When working with us, you will never be the smartest person in the room. We deny experts and focus on a scientific approach and data-based and science-based proof.
We work in a scary world that constantly changes, and the only way to survive is to be ten steps ahead of everyone else. While working with us, you will become a better leader, better specialist, and a better professional because there is no other way to survive. If you are up for a challenge, if you want to grow and evolve, and if you can become, in your first week, somebody who changes us as a business for the better, then we are the right place for you.
We are looking for capable people to join our team - those who will help us develop our projects to achieve ambitious goals. We need people who are responsible, proactive, attentive to detail and love a challenge.
Join our team. Check out the available positions and send us your resume. If you have any questions about working at Gehtsoft, please contact us at contact@gehtsoftusa.com
For those who are useful and needed we are ready to provide аdditional benefits such as financial aid, low-interest loans, relocation assistance, etc. Basically, if you treat us well, we'll treat you well!

Product owner
The person will be responsible for:
Enhancing key project indicators through Evidence-Based Management metrics (Current Value, Unrealized Value, Time to Market, Ability to Innovate)
Anti-requirements: reliance on miracles, hiding information that we can’t make it in time (including the lack of a releasable increment no rarer than once every two weeks) until the last second, falsifying the real state of the development process. The above is strictly prohibited. Attempts to argue for "it’s more convenient/efficient/faster to complete all preparatory work first" will be immediately viewed as attempts to find a way not to do something, which will not do the PO any favors. We’ve heard it all before
No set of instructions can cover every duty or foresee all situations. Therefore, observing engineers must take initiative and, guided by their professional knowledge and situational context, go above and beyond to prove their worth.
Performance targets for the probationary period (3 months)
Required
Welcome

Chief Operating Officer
Yes, we are the place for the crazy ones who do not settle for less. We are perfectionists who understand the meaning of “enough” (but our enough is another’s perfect). We are idealists who want to do things right. We are life-long learners who think that we are never good enough to stop. We are a wolf pack that values situational leadership and personal accountability. We are the scariest animals in the forest for outsiders, but treat each other well. When working with us, you will never be the smartest person in the room. We deny experts and focus on a scientific approach and data-based and science-based proof. We work in a scary world that constantly changes, and the only way to survive is to be ten steps ahead of everyone else. We don’t care about trends and fashion, but care about customers and serving them with efficiency and due regard. We are different, and that is for a reason. For mediocrity, there are plenty of other places to work. While working with us, you will become a better leader, better specialist, and a better professional because there is no other way to survive.
If you are up for a challenge, if you want to grow and evolve and get things done, then we are the right place for you.
We are Gehtsoft USA, a North Carolina Limited Liability Company with our head office located in the city of Raleigh. The company has been in operation since 1999, and since 2008, we have been represented in the USA.
Our primary focus is custom software development, but not in the conventional sense of "outsourcing" or "outstaffing." We specialize in situations where the client may not have a clear understanding of what needs to be done or how to accomplish it. It would be more accurate to describe our work as "turn-key product development." However, we currently do not have our own products—perhaps because, as the saying goes, "the cobbler's children have no shoes."
Our company operates on five main principles:
Our expectation is that every action of every employee is guided by these principles. And most of all, we are guided by a definition of professionalism:
“No instruction can list all an employee's duties, provide all individual cases, and give appropriate instructions in advance. Therefore, the supervising engineers must take the initiative and, guided by their professional expertise and the project goals, make every effort to justify their appointment to the job.”
We are looking for a right-hand person for Gehtsoft’s leadership and founders. A closer, a finisher, “a last mile” pusher. A person whose feeling of accomplishment comes from getting things done. A person who can balance “red,” “orange,” and “teal” teams and people and work with them accordingly. A person who is ready to dig in, grind, and fight for a brighter future for us all.
This will include (but is not limited to):
Week 1:
Month 1:
Month 2:
Month 3:
Vacation/sick leave/holidays follow the American model.
Each employee has 15 days off per year, which can be used at their discretion.
For those who are useful and needed, we are ready to provide аdditional benefits such as financial aid, low-interest loans, relocation assistance, etc. Basically, if you treat us well, we'll treat you well :)

Automation QA Engineer
Improvement of testing quality on the project and risk reduction of potential issues at higher levels of testing (manual, client acceptance) by implementing automated E2E & API tests in accordance with the testing pyramid.
Consistently high application quality (lack of blocker/highest/high defects, as well as no more than 5% of defects found by the client out of the total number of defects) through reducing the number of bugs missed by API & E2E tests and ensuring their earlier detection.
Enabling daily releases to Production in the AP team.
Saving resources and funds of the AP team through effective test coverage with automation.
Efficiency and productivity increase of AP team developers through relieving them from writing API & E2E automated tests, freeing them to focus on development, support, implementation of component and contract test coverage, closure of technical debt, etc.
Reducing test execution time and increasing product delivery speed by improving test design and transitioning to the Playwright framework, which will enable parallel test execution.
A Senior Automation QA Engineer is an outstanding professional with deep knowledge in test automation, including experience with various frameworks (Cypress, Playwright) and programming languages (JavaScript). The candidate should have experience in creating and maintaining test infrastructure, including configuring environments for test execution, creating and supporting containers (Docker), as well as experience integrating automated tests into continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD) processes.
A Senior Automation QA Engineer independently organizes their work and actively participates in product requirement analysis, identifies potential risks and creates appropriate test cases and scenarios, ensures their high performance and stability, analyzes test results, identifies defects and their root causes, and optimizes automation processes. They actively document their work, ensuring transparency and accessibility of information for the entire team. The candidate should be ready to train and share experience with other team members, contributing to the professional growth of the entire QA team. Their professional contribution brings undeniable value to the company's project, ensuring high quality and long-term success.
Current Value Increased
The overall cost of quality assurance on the project decreases due to the QA Engineer covering the automation level with API and E2E automated tests.
Testing automation reduces manual effort
Reducing the risk of defects occurring in later stages by improving test coverage with automated tests according to the testing pyramid and optimizing testing processes, confirmed by Quality metrics (Defect Density, Defect Containment Efficiency)
Supporting the product owner in meetings with the client about requirements and strategy
Assisting the client in optimizing and executing the testing plan and strategy, providing their experience and expertise
Providing consultations to the client, helping them better understand and adjust testing and automation processes
Facilitating product changes as automated tests allow quick verification of functionality when code changes are made
Team efficiency increases as team developers have more time for development, support, implementation of component and contract test coverage, closure of technical debt, etc.
By actively implementing an automated testing strategy, they will ensure continuous delivery to the end user.

Would be great:
NOTE: It is not marked as "mandatory" because the majority of candidates do not know, and there is nowhere to learn. However, it is crucial to be prepared to work in the empirical approach used here. Yes, we will teach, but learning is mandatory, and there is no other option. And you will need to learn quickly.
