Build the Future of Quality - With AI in Your Toolkit
We're looking for a Senior Test Automation Engineer who's ready to work at the intersection of quality engineering and generative AI. This isn't a traditional QA role - it's a chance to shape how modern teams ship reliable software by combining deep automation expertise with cutting-edge GenAI tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and the OpenAI API.
If you believe quality is a strategic advantage (not just a checkbox), and you thrive in environments where automation, data, and AI converge - keep reading.
- Own test automation strategy end-to-end for key product areas - from framework architecture to execution and continuous improvement.
- Harness GenAI tools daily to generate test cases, parse logs, surface edge cases, and accelerate exploratory testing in ways most teams haven't tried yet.
- Build and scale Selenium-based frameworks (Python, Java, or JavaScript) that keep regression suites fast, stable, and meaningful across browsers and environments.
- Wire automated tests into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, Git Hub Actions, or Azure Dev Ops - ensuring every code change is validated before it ships.
- Analyze test results and production data to uncover failure patterns, define quality KPIs (coverage, defect density, MTTD), and present actionable insights to engineering leadership.
- Review automation code and mentor junior engineers on framework best practices, GenAI-assisted workflows, and data-driven decision-making.
- Partner with product and dev teams from the design phase - defining acceptance criteria, testability requirements, and quality standards before a single line of code is written.
- AI-first QA workflow. GenAI tools and cloud infrastructure are already provisioned - no fighting for budget or buy-in.
- Embedded, not siloed. You work alongside engineers from design through deployment, not downstream from them.
- Lean documentation. No 50-page test plans. Every artifact is living, actionable, and tied to automated checks.
- Signal over noise. Test suites are actively pruned - every test earns its spot in the pipeline.
- 5+ years in software QA, with at least 3 years dedicated to test automation.
- Selenium Web Driver expertise - Page Object Model, explicit/implicit waits, cross-browser execution.
- Strong coding ability in Python, Java, or JavaScript for framework development and scripting.
- Proven experience with GenAI tools (OpenAI API, Claude Code, Cursor, or similar) applied to real engineering workflows.
- CI/CD familiarity - hands-on with Jenkins, Git Hub Actions, or Azure Dev Ops pipeline configuration.
- Data analysis chops - comfortable writing SQL, parsing logs, and building dashboards with Grafana, Tableau, or comparable tools.
