Software Quality Summit Phoenix 2026
A full day of Phoenix engineering managers in one hotel ballroom, and most of them are hiring SDETs.
15 E Monroe St, Phoenix, AZ 85004
What this event is
TestingMind's Software Quality Summit brings QA engineers, SDETs, test architects and engineering leaders to downtown Phoenix for keynotes, panels, case studies and networking on AI-powered testing, automation at scale and quality governance. The agenda and speakers are being announced closer to the date.
Roles you will actually see
Who should go
Automation and quality engineers, and developers who want face time with local engineering managers rather than recruiters.
This is not a job fair, and that is the point: the people in the room are the hiring managers, not talent-acquisition. If you do test automation, platform or DevOps work, one good hallway conversation here beats twenty booth handshakes. Ticket is paid, so only go if you will actually work the room. Sponsorship is a company-by-company question; ask which Phoenix employers the speakers represent and check their H-1B history before the day.
Show up prepared
- 1Buy the ticket early and review the speaker list as it posts
- 2Pick three speakers whose companies are hiring and read their recent posts
- 3Bring a short demo or repo link showing your automation framework
Sponsorship reality
Sponsorship varies by employer. No organizer publishes sponsorship. Check each employer you plan to meet against H-1B disclosure data before you go, and ask in the first two minutes so neither side wastes the conversation.
Showing up is half of it.
The other half is being first to the roles these employers post, and having something real to show when you get there.
See roles the minute they go live, tailor one resume per employer, and reach the hiring manager directly. Walk into the event as a follow-up, not a stranger.
Start free13 weeks of building real AI agents and automations, so the answer to "what have you built" is a link, not a story.
