ABOUT THE COMPANY
Republic Services, Inc. (NYSE: RSG) is a leader in the environmental services industry. We provide customers with the most complete set of products and services, including recycling, waste, special waste, hazardous waste and field services. Our industry-leading commitments to advance circularity and support decarbonization are helping deliver on our vision to partner with customers to create a more sustainable world.
In 2025, Republic’s total company revenue was $16.6 billion, and adjusted EBITDA was $5.3 billion. We serve 13 million customers and operate more than 1,000 locations, including collection and transfer stations, recycling and polymer centers, treatment facilities, and landfills.
Although we operate across North America, the collection, recycling, treatment, or disposal of materials is a local business, and the dynamics and opportunities differ in each market we serve. By combining local operational management with standardized business practices, we drive greater operating efficiencies across the company while maintaining day-to-day operational decisions at the local level, closest to the customer.
Our customers, including small businesses, major corporations and municipalities, want a partner with the expertise and capabilities to effectively manage their multiple recycling and waste streams. They choose Republic Services because we are committed to exceeding their expectations and helping them achieve their sustainability goals. Our 42,000 team members understand that it's not just what we do that matters, but how we do it.
Our company values guide our daily actions:
- Safe: We protect the livelihoods of our colleagues and communities.
- Committed to Serve: We go above and beyond to exceed our customers’ expectations.
- Environmentally Responsible: We take action to improve our environment.
- Driven: We deliver results in the right way.
- Human-Centered: We respect the dignity and unique potential of every person.
We are proud of our high employee engagement score of 86. We have an inclusive and diverse culture where every voice counts. In addition, our team positively impacted 5.1 million people in 2024 through the Republic Services Charitable Foundation and local community grants. These projects are designed to meet the specific needs of the communities we serve, with a focus on building sustainable neighborhoods.
STRATEGY
Republic Services’ strategy is designed to generate profitable growth. Through acquisitions and industry advancements, we safely and sustainably manage our customers’ multiple waste streams through a North American footprint of vertically integrated assets.
We focus on three areas of growth to meet the increasing needs of our customers: recycling and waste, environmental solutions and sustainability innovation.
With our integrated approach, strengthening our position in one area advances other areas of our business. For example, as we grow volume in recycling and waste, we collect additional material to bolster our circularity capabilities. And as we expand environmental solutions, we drive additional opportunities to provide these services to our existing recycling and waste customers.
Recycling and Waste
We continue to expand our recycling and waste business footprint throughout North America through organic growth and targeted acquisitions. The 13 million customers we serve and our more than 5 million pick-ups per day provide us with a distinct advantage. We aggregate materials at scale, unlocking new opportunities for advanced recycling. In addition, we are cross-selling new products and services to better meet our customers’ specific needs.
Environmental Solutions
Our comprehensive environmental solutions capabilities help customers safely manage their most technical waste streams. We are expanding both our capabilities and our geographic footprint. We see strong growth opportunities for our offerings, including PFAS remediation, an increasing customer need.
Sustainability Innovation
Republic’s recent innovations to advance circularity and decarbonization demonstrate our unique ability to leverage sustainability as a platform for growth.
The Republic Services Polymer Center is the nation’s first integrated plastics recycling facility. These innovative sites process rigid plastics from our recycling centers, producing recycled materials that promote true bottle-to-bottle circularity. We also formed Blue Polymers, a joint venture with Ravago, to develop facilities that will further process plastic material from our Polymer Centers to help meet the growing demand for sustainable packaging. We are building a network of Polymer Centers and Blue Polymer facilities across North America.
Our customers are increasingly looking for decarbonization solutions, and we are leveraging our network of landfills to meet that need. Republic is committed to harnessing landfill gas, a natural byproduct of decomposing waste, and converting it to energy. Republic has partnered with renewable gas developers to construct Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) plants at our landfills, expanding beyond the 77 projects we currently have to make progress towards our goal to beneficially reuse 50% more biogas by 2030 (2017 baseline year).

Software Test Engineer Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a software test engineer in Arizona?
Software test engineer is not a state-licensed role in Arizona, so no state board exam or registration is required. Most Arizona employers expect a bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, or information systems, paired with hands-on testing experience or a portfolio of automation work. Industry certifications such as the ISTQB Foundation Level are widely recognized by Arizona hiring managers and help candidates stand out, particularly at larger defense and technology employers in the Phoenix metro.
How much do software test engineers make in Arizona?
Software test engineers in Arizona earn a median of about $100,650 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $63,920 for the lowest 10% to over $143,000 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire software test engineers in Arizona?
Employers hiring software test engineers in Arizona right now include Raytheon, Roche, and Fullbay, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Arizona's concentration of aerospace, semiconductor, and financial technology companies means demand stays consistent across both large enterprise employers and mid-size product teams.
Which Arizona cities have the most software test engineer jobs?
Tucson, Phoenix, and Tempe have the most software test engineer openings in Arizona. Phoenix dominates due to its density of fintech firms, enterprise software companies, and corporate technology headquarters, while Scottsdale draws heavily from SaaS and cybersecurity employers, and Tucson contributes meaningful volume through defense contractors and University of Arizona-affiliated technology operations.
Are there remote software test engineer jobs in Arizona?
Yes, and more than most fields. Software test engineering is largely desk-based and tool-driven, making it well suited to remote and hybrid arrangements. About 67% of software test engineer openings tied to Arizona are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how broadly the role has shifted away from on-site requirements. Test automation and API testing roles are the most commonly offered as fully remote positions.
How can I get hired as a software test engineer in Arizona with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is an associate QA analyst or junior tester role, which Arizona employers including Intel and large fintech firms in Phoenix regularly post for candidates without extensive professional experience. Building a public automation portfolio on GitHub using Selenium or Pytest gives a concrete edge. Adjacent roles such as technical support analyst or business systems analyst at Arizona companies are common stepping stones, and the ISTQB Foundation certification signals baseline competency to hiring teams across the state.
Where can I find and apply to software test engineer jobs in Arizona?
You can find and apply to software test engineer jobs in Arizona on Migrate Mate, which lists current Arizona openings. Find the roles that fit your experience and location and apply directly.
