Job Description

We are seeking a highly skilled, detail-oriented Senior Engineer - Technology Quality Assurance to take complete ownership of our end-to-end testing lifecycle. In this role, you will be the ultimate champion for software quality, ensuring every feature we release meets exceptional standards of functional precision, performance, and user experience.

• Automation Framework Design: Own, Build, maintain, and scale robust automated test suites (UI and API) to accelerate integration and regression testing cycles.
• Performance & Load Testing: Plan, script, and execute load, stress, and performance tests to ensure systems remain fast, scalable, and resilient under heavy traffic.
• Manual & Exploratory Testing: Conduct thorough manual and exploratory testing to catch edge cases, usability flaws, and visual inconsistencies that automated scripts miss.
• Product Polish Advocate: Serve as the ultimate filter for product quality, ensuring UI/UX flows are intuitive, seamless, and pixel-perfect prior to release.
• Agile Integration: Collaborate closely with Product Managers, Software Engineers, and Designers in an Agile/Scrum environment to refine user stories, define acceptance criteria, and prevent defects early in the sprint cycle.
• Defect Management: Identify, document, prioritize, and track bugs to resolution using JIRA (or similar tools), providing clear reproduction steps and detailed diagnostics.
• CI/CD Integration: Integrate automated test suites directly into CI/CD deployment pipelines to enable continuous feedback and rapid delivery cycles.

Qualifications

• Minimum of 10 years of hands-on experience as a QA Engineer working on web and mobile applications.
• Must have exceptional, highly competent verbal and written English skills for clear documentation, team collaboration, and professional client interactions.
• Proven experience designing and implementing automation frameworks using tools such as Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, Appium, or similar.
• Solid background in performance testing tools like JMeter, K6, or Gatling.
• Strong expertise across manual, API (REST/GraphQL via Postman or RestAssured), cross-browser, and performance testing methodologies.
• Extensive experience working in Agile/Scrum methodologies with active participation in sprint planning, daily standups, and retrospectives.
• An exceptional eye for detail with a relentless drive to ensure products look, feel, and function flawlessly.
• Comfortable writing SQL queries for database verification, inspecting network calls, and analyzing system logs.
• Confident and willing to engage directly with clients and stakeholders as needed.

• Experience with CI/CD tools (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI).
• Familiarity with security testing practices and OWASP principles.
• ISTQB certification or equivalent software testing credential.
