WHY JOIN US
If you're looking for a place to grow, make an impact, and work with people who care, we'd love to meet you!
ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a Senior Quality Engineer to drive quality throughout the software development lifecycle by partnering with Product Managers, Software Engineers, and Architects to embed quality from the start rather than serve as a gatekeeper at release. You will design and maintain automated tests across unit, API, integration, and UI layers using tools like Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium, champion a right-sized test pyramid strategy, and leverage AI-powered tools for test generation, defect analysis, and coverage optimization. The role requires 4+ years of quality engineering experience with hands-on AI-assisted testing tool experience.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
Partner closely with Product Managers, Software Engineers, and Architects to understand product functionality, technical design, customer workflows, and acceptance criteria, ensuring quality is built into every stage of SDLC.
Define and execute a product quality strategy that aligns with business priorities, engineering practices, and release objectives.
Design, develop, and maintain automated tests across unit, API, integration, and UI layers, applying the appropriate level of testing based on product risk and architecture.
Champion the concept of a right-sized test pyramid by driving quality through the most effective mix of unit, service, integration, and end-to-end tests rather than relying heavily on UI automation.
Collaborate with development teams to understand code changes, code coverage, and application architecture to determine where automated tests provide the greatest value.
Build and maintain scalable, resilient automation frameworks that integrate seamlessly into CI/CD pipelines to enable continuous testing and rapid feedback.
Promote shift-left quality practices by participating in backlog refinement, sprint planning, design discussions, and code reviews to identify quality risks early.
Leverage AI-powered tools throughout the software development and testing lifecycle, including test case generation, automation development, defect analysis, risk identification, and coverage optimization, while validating AI-generated outputs for accuracy and effectiveness.
Identify opportunities to reduce manual effort through intelligent automation and process optimization while improving product reliability.
Partner with engineering teams to investigate defects, perform root cause analysis, and implement preventative quality improvements.
MUST HAVES
4+ years of experience in software testing, quality engineering, or automation roles.
Proficiency with automation tools and frameworks (e.g., Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, REST-assured, Postman, or similar).
Ability to read, write, or debug test code or scripts (e.g., Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, C#).
Understanding of REST APIs and service-based architectures.
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and continuous-testing concepts.
Hands-on experience with AI-assisted testing tools and practices required.
Upper-Intermediate English level.
NICE TO HAVES
Passionate about writing clean, modern, maintainable, & highly-performant code.
Pro-active ability and a self-starter attitude to troubleshoot and solve problems.
Experience working in an Agile environment leveraging remote communication tools.
Strong communication skills with excellent interpersonal effectiveness.
