Should I look for a new job soon?

I know the market is terrible and experience is experience in this economy, but I am in a predicament.

As a new grad I took the first job I was offered and did not want to take any chances, and I am very grateful for that.

I’ve been at my new job for about a month and I truly don’t like it or see myself enjoying it in the future. My boss is very toxic, and I am stuck in a lab the entire day staring at a computer. The job was advertised as a software development role, but there really is no development. I am more of a tester and run automated scripts on devices, which really isn’t what I went to college for. According to my boss I won’t even write a single line of code lol.

The job is very boring and very slow, and I know everyone doesn’t love their job, but as engineers I feel like we should somewhat enjoy our job, that’s the reason I became one at least. I also have a feeling I am kind of stuck in this role for at least a year according to my coworkers.

My coworkers are amazing people, and there are genuinely a lot of friendly people at this company which make my days go by faster. My pay is also $85000 in the north east which is pretty fair imo.
