Do you want to work in a team where learning new things is a daily routine? Do you want to be part of the AI movement that is shaping the IT industry? Become a quality leader in a team that will play a critical role in infusing Red Hat products with generative AI. Our aim is to develop a platform other teams at Red Hat will use to quickly and easily develop virtual assistants for Red Hat products and we seek a quality engineer who will help us make this happen.
