Technical QA Automation Engineer

Responsibilities

Design, document, and execute test cases (functional, integration, end-to-end, regression, smoke) based on requirements and acceptance criteria, combining manual and automated testing strategies.
Develop, maintain, and improve automated test suites for web applications and APIs, and define which scenarios provide the most value to automate.
Validate APIs, services, and integration flows (e.g., Postman), and analyze logs, requests/responses, and technical errors to help identify root causes.
Identify, report, and track defects using tools like Jira; validate fixes and assess the impact of changes through regression testing.
Integrate and maintain automated tests within CI/CD pipelines, analyzing results to spot flaky tests, coverage gaps, and improvement opportunities.
Collaborate with developers, Product Owners, and QA teammates throughout the sprint cycle (planning, refinement, daily meetings, retrospectives), reviewing requirements from a quality/testability lens.
Maintain test environments and test data, and continuously propose improvements to testing processes, tools, and overall quality strategy.

Requirements

5 years of QA experience, combining manual testing and test automation, with solid grounding in STLC/SDLC and Agile (Scrum).
Proven experience automating tests for web apps and/or APIs using frameworks like Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium, with JavaScript or TypeScript.
Solid testing fundamentals: functional/non-functional testing, black-box/white-box, equivalence partitioning, boundary value analysis, and clear, maintainable test case design.
API testing experience (Postman, Insomnia) and understanding of HTTP/REST, response codes, headers, and authentication.
Basic to intermediate SQL for data validation, plus experience with test/defect management tools (Jira, TestRail, Zephyr) and Git.
Strong knowledge of CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins) and ability to troubleshoot using browser dev tools, logs, and monitoring.
Strong communication skills to convey findings, risks, and quality issues, working both independently and cross-functionally.

Nice to Have

Performance testing experience (k6, JMeter, or similar).
Basic security testing for web applications and APIs.
Strong knowledge of relational and non-relational databases.
Experience with Docker, containerized environments, and microservices architectures.
Experience using AI/Generative AI tools and agentic workflows (including MCP) to accelerate QA and test automation processes.
