Job Description
This role is located in Budapest, Hungary - We are a hybrid work environment and are in the office 3+ days/per week.
Tulip, the leader in frontline operations, is helping companies around the world equip their workforce with connected apps, leading to higher quality work, improved efficiency, and end-to-end traceability across operations. Companies of all sizes and across industries have implemented composable solutions with Tulip’s cloud-native, no-code platform to solve some of the most pressing challenges in operations: error-proofing processes and boosting productivity, capturing and analyzing real-time data, and continuous improvement.
A spinoff out of MIT, Tulip is headquartered in Somerville, MA, with offices in Germany and Hungary. Focused on composable, human-centric solutions for industrial environments, Tulip is disrupting the MES category and has been recognized as a World Economic Forum Global Innovator.
Software systems are complex beasts filled with odd historical intricacies and idiosyncrasies. Tulip is looking for someone who marvels at the complexity of real, production-level systems and finds joy in creating a future-facing vision of how to improve them.
About You:
- You care about developer productivity and building tools that make engineers’ lives easier and more enjoyable.

- You understand, and can spread knowledge around the multiple tiers of an effective automated testing strategy
Key Responsibilities:
- Design, build, and maintain internal developer tools, platforms, and workflows used across Tulip’s engineering organization.
