Job Description & How to Apply Below
Position: Software Development Engineer – Test (SDET)
  • Direct AI agents to generate, execute, and maintain the majority of automated test coverage, using Playwright with JavaScript/Node.js as the underlying framework
  • Design and refine prompting strategies and agentic workflows that reduce manual test-writing over time
  • Apply human judgment where agents fall short edge cases, flaky results, and coverage gaps that need a person to catch them
  • Own test case documentation, execution, and reporting in Test Rail
  • Track work and defects in Jira
  • Use Git and contribute to agent-driven test automation running in Git Hub Actions as our CI/CD process matures
  • Weigh in on API testing strategy, even in areas where day-to-day ownership sits with someone else
  • Juggle a shifting mix of project work, defect response, and ongoing improvements without dropping the ball on any of it
  • Give clear, proactive updates on testing status, risk, and blockers, to your team and to leadership
  • Work with product, dev, and QA to nail down scope, acceptance criteria, and what "good enough" actually means
  • Mentor junior developers through code review, test design, and automation practices as they grow into more dev-focused work including how to work effectively with AI agents themselves
  • Actively pilot and give feedback on agentic AI tools as part of an early-stage rollout, helping shape how the team adopts them
  • Help shape test strategy and automation architecture as agents take on more of the day-to-day testing load
Requirements
  • Hands-on Playwright experience
  • Strong JavaScript/Node.js skills
  • Test Rail (or similar test case management tool) experience
  • Jira experience for tracking work and defects
  • Working knowledge of Git
  • Comfort directing or prompting AI tools to do work you'd otherwise do by hand and knowing when to step in
  • You can explain a gnarly technical issue to a non-technical exec and to a fellow engineer, and know how to adjust for each
  • Track record of managing competing priorities not just tolerating ambiguity, but working well in it
  • Comfort with a role that isn't fully defined yet and will keep evolving
Core Competencies

Demonstrates expertise in automated testing using Playwright with JavaScript/Node.js, along with strong capabilities in test case management and defect tracking. Proficient in mentoring junior developers and adapting to evolving roles while managing competing priorities effectively.
