We are looking for a Senior QA Automation Engineer to strengthen our quality assurance process. Although the platform has existing automation in place, recurring bugs and unstable releases reveal structural gaps in quality coverage.

This role requires a highly skilled engineer capable of auditing the current automation, rebuilding unstable areas, improving test strategy, and ensuring reliable, defect-free releases.

You will collaborate closely with Development, DevOps, and Product teams to implement best practices, optimize testing workflows, and elevate overall product quality.

Key Responsibilities

1. Automation Quality & Test Architecture

• Audit existing automation to identify false positives, flakiness, outdated libraries, missing regression coverage, and low-value tests.
• Refactor or rebuild automation for stability, maintainability, and scalability.
• Define the automation scope for the upcoming delivery cycle (new features, high-risk areas, historical bugs).
• Implement best-practice patterns: Page Object Model, reusable fixtures, API abstraction, stable waits.

2. Functional & Regression Testing

• Perform manual testing for new features with unclear or incomplete acceptance criteria.
• Build/improve a complete regression suite integrated into CI/CD pipelines.
• Validate bug fixes and ensure test coverage prevents reoccurrence.
• Report defect patterns and risk areas to leadership.

3. Testing Process & Standards

• Create/update test strategy, test cases (manual + automated), test data plans, and acceptance criteria.
• Document all test results clearly, ensuring traceability and reproducibility.
• Enhance collaboration between QA, Dev, and Product to reduce defect leakage.

4. Environment & CI/CD

• Work with DevOps to stabilize QA/UAT environments.
• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines with reliable pass/fail signals.
• Reduce test flakiness and ensure poor-quality builds are blocked.

5. Release Quality Ownership

• Validate release candidates end-to-end.
• Execute smoke, sanity, exploratory, and performance testing when needed.
• Provide clear go/no-go indicators based on quality KPIs.
