WHO YOU ARE:
We’re looking for a QA Engineer with strong automation skills and solid manual testing fundamentals. You’ll design, implement, and maintain automated tests for UI and APIs, execute targeted manual testing where appropriate, and integrate quality checks into CI/CD to help us ship reliably and fast.

Own end-to-end quality for assigned features: test planning, case design, automation, execution, and reporting. Build/extend maintainable automation frameworks for Selenium/Web Driver (UI) and API tests (e.g., REST Assured or Python/pytest + requests). Create smoke, regression, and sanity suites; reduce flakiness and improve coverage & runtime.

Integrate suites with CI/CD (Jenkins/Git Hub Actions/Git Lab CI) and publish clear reports (Allure/Extent).

Partner with Product & Engineering to define testable acceptance criteria and adopt shift-left practices. Perform exploratory and risk-based manual testing for new/complex features and support UAT when needed. Prepare and manage test data, validate states via SQL/DB queries, and debug with logs/Dev Tools.

Log/track defects with precise repro steps, severity/impact; drive fixes to closure.

Monitor and communicate QA metrics (pass rate, defect leakage, flake rate, coverage) and propose improvements.

Contribute to code reviews for test code, standards, and best practices; mentor juniors when applicable.

3–5 years in QA, with 2+ years focused on test automation. Hands‑on with Selenium/Web Driver for UI automation. Strong API testing experience (Postman/Insomnia plus REST Assured (Java) or Python with pytest/requests). Proficiency in at least one programming language:
Java, Python, JavaScript/Type Script, or C#; comfortable reading others. Test frameworks:
TestNG/JUnit (Java) or pytest (Python); exposure to BDD (Cucumber/Behave) is a plus. CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins/Git Hub Actions/Git Lab CI) and Git version control. Strong manual testing fundamentals: test design techniques, boundary analysis, exploratory testing. Working knowledge of SQL and basic Linux/CLI; excellent written and verbal communication.

Modern web testing tools (Playwright or Cypress). Performance testing basics (JMeter or Locust). Containers/cloud basics (Docker, cloud CI runners). Experience with ERP or complex integrations (e.g., People Soft) is a plus.

At Zinnia, you collaborate with smart, creative professionals who are dedicated to delivering cutting‑edge technologies, deeper data insights, and enhanced services to transform how insurance is done.
