Job Description
We are seeking a Automation Engineer to join our software quality team. In this role, you will help ensure product quality through manual and automated testing, debugging, and continuous improvement of QA processes. You’ll work closely with experienced QA engineers, developers, and product stakeholders while building your technical skills in automation and modern testing practices.
This is a great opportunity for someone early in their career who is motivated to learn automation tools, CI/CD processes, and agile development practices in a supportive team environment.
Responsibilities
- Assist in designing, developing, and maintaining automated test scripts (Cypress, Robot Framework, Appium, or similar tools).
- Partner with QA and development teams to gather requirements and help build tools that improve testing efficiency and reliability.
- Support CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions) and help monitor and troubleshoot test execution results.
- Execute manual and automated test cases to validate new features and bug fixes.
- Collaborate with developers and QA team members to identify, document, and track defects.
- Contribute to test plans and help improve QA processes and standards.
- Participate in Agile/Scrum ceremonies and team discussions.
To be successful in this role, you will need:
- 0–5 years of experience in software testing or development (internships included).
- Basic understanding of software testing concepts and QA methodologies.
- Familiarity with at least one programming or scripting language (Java, JavaScript, Python or similar).
- Exposure to automation frameworks or tools (academic or project experience is acceptable).
- Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
- Good communication skills and ability to work in a team environment.
- Experience working in an Agile environment is a plus but not required.
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or related field (or equivalent experience).
