This is frankly exactly what I'm looking to land. I've just had a really hard time differentiating / finding leads. Similar to product stuff it seems like roles in the space are very few and far between and given how flooded the market is it's been very difficult just to get in the door.

Any suggestions where I could start to ween my way into this space?

See my other comment about PE funds. We call these mid-stage companies. A great number of them are partially or majority owned by PE funds who are into growing tech companies sustainably. You can actually find that out by looking on PE fund websites and linked in posts - they tell the world when they acquire things, and very frequently make fresh hires upon doing so.

One of the things we do is provide 3rd party opinions on what they might want to hire upon acquisition. Definitely one of the big ones is "senior test engineer". Not tester, but person who builds all the test infrastructure and trains other devs on how to do it properly.
