The Role

What You’ll Do
  • Understand product requirements and technical designs to identify potential quality risks and testing scenarios.
  • Design, develop, and maintain automated tests for UI and APIs using appropriate automation frameworks.
  • Build and maintain reliable and reusable automation scripts for functional, regression, integration, and end-to-end testing.
  • Work closely with developers and product teams to identify issues early and contribute to a shift-left approach to quality.
  • Perform API testing and validate backend functionality using tools such as Postman and REST clients.
  • Perform database validation using SQL and ensure data is accurate and consistent across systems.
  • Identify, document, track, and validate defects through resolution.
  • Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines and help improve the speed and reliability of testing.
  • Contribute to improving test coverage, automation efficiency, and overall product quality.
  • Identify flaky tests, testing gaps, and repetitive manual processes and look for opportunities to automate and improve them.
  • Participate in performance and security testing initiatives where applicable.
  • Learn and adopt better testing practices, tools, and technologies as the product and engineering environment evolves.
  • Collaborate with the engineering team to build a culture where quality is considered throughout the development lifecycle.

What You’ll Bring
  • 1–3 years of experience in QA, SDET, or software testing with a strong interest in automation and quality engineering.
  • Good programming skills in one or more of Python, Java, or JavaScript.
  • Hands-on experience with automation tools such as Cypress, Playwright, RestAssured, or similar.
  • Understanding of test automation frameworks such as TestNG, JUnit, or Mocha.
  • Practical understanding of API testing using tools such as Postman or REST clients.
  • Good knowledge of SQL and databases, with an understanding of backend validation.
  • Exposure to CI/CD tools such as Jenkins or GitHub Actions.
  • Good understanding of software testing fundamentals, including functional, regression, integration, white-box, and black-box testing.
  • Understanding of Agile/Scrum development practices.
  • Exposure to performance or security testing is an added advantage.
  • You’re curious about how software works, enjoy finding what can go wrong, and bring strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and a willingness to learn new technologies and testing approaches.
  • You take ownership, communicate and collaborate well with developers and product teams, and are excited to grow as an engineer in automation and quality engineering.
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
