The listing
Key Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain scalable test automation frameworks from the ground up.
- Develop automated tests across:
- API – REST Assured, Karate, pytest, or equivalent.
- UI – Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, or equivalent.
- Database/Data – SQL-based validation of data quality and integrity.
- Build reusable automation architecture, libraries, utilities, fixtures, and reporting.
- Validate data for:
- Completeness
- Correctness
- Consistency
- Duplicates
- Data integrity across systems
- Develop and execute performance and load tests using tools such as JMeter, k6, or Gatling.
- Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines and ensure critical failures can prevent defective releases.
- Investigate automation failures, identify root causes, and work with developers to resolve defects.
- Define and maintain appropriate test coverage across APIs, UI, backend services, and data pipelines.
- Contribute to overall test strategy and quality engineering practices across multiple teams.
- Continuously improve automation reliability, execution speed, maintainability, and coverage.
- Mentor other QA engineers and promote engineering best practices within the QA team.
Required Skills & Experience
- 5+ years of professional QA/testing experience, with strong focus on automation.
- Proven experience building or significantly rebuilding automation frameworks, rather than only writing tests within an existing framework.
- Strong programming skills in at least one of:
- Python
- Java
- TypeScript
- Strong hands-on experience with API automation using technologies such as:
- REST Assured
- Karate
- pytest
- or equivalent frameworks
- Strong experience with UI automation using:
- Playwright
- Cypress
- Selenium
- or equivalent tools
- Strong SQL skills for automated data validation and database testing.
- Practical experience with performance/load testing, using JMeter, k6, Gatling, or similar.
- Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines.
- Strong understanding of test automation architecture, design patterns, maintainability, and scalability.
- Experience working in Agile/Scrum software development environments.
- Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
Nice to Have
- Experience testing streaming or event-driven data pipelines.
- Exposure to security testing or penetration testing.
- Experience owning or contributing to test strategy across multiple engineering teams.
- Experience with cloud environments and modern DevOps tooling.
- Experience with Docker/Kubernetes and distributed systems.
- Experience testing data-intensive or high-throughput platforms.
What We're Looking For
The ideal candidate is someone who:
- Thinks like a software engineer, not only a traditional tester.
- Has personally built automation frameworks and understands the architecture behind them.
- Can write clean, maintainable production-quality code.
- Is comfortable testing across API, UI, database, data, and performance layers.
- Understands that automation should provide reliable feedback in the CI/CD pipeline.
- Can investigate failures rather than simply report them.
- Takes ownership of quality and can work across multiple engineering teams.
Important
This role is automation-first.
Candidates whose experience is primarily manual testing, test-case execution, or writing tests inside an existing framework without significant framework-development experience are unlikely to be a strong fit.
