The Senior QA Automation Engineer II is a senior individual contributor responsible for owning and curating team-level automation as part of One Stream's Quality Engineering strategy. This role focuses on designing risk‑aligned, maintainable, and meaningful automated checks that support continuous delivery and informed release decisions.

• Own the design, implementation, and ongoing curation of team-level automation suites, ensuring alignment to product risk and change.
• Design automated checks intentionally based on risk, behavior, and failure value, not step‑by‑step replication.
• Partner with embedded Quality Engineers to convert exploratory findings, risk models, and testing insights into automation candidates.
• Participate in refinement, design, and sprint planning discussions to raise testability, automation, and observability considerations early.
• Decide where automated checks belong (pipeline, nightly, lower‑frequency suites) and adjust placement as risk evolves.
• Investigate automation failures, diagnose root causes, eliminate flakiness, and improve signal reliability.
• Ensure automated tests provide clear, actionable diagnostic output to support fast decision‑making.
• Contribute to shared automation patterns, heuristics, and standards across teams.
• Mentor and support other Automation Engineers and QEs in automation design, risk‑based coverage, and curation practices.
• Collaborate with framework and enablement teams to surface gaps, improvements, or tooling needs.
• Ensure automation coverage and outcomes are visible and interpretable through Testmo and other reporting tools.
• Contribute to sprint‑ and release‑level quality stories, clearly articulating what automation covers, what it does not, and remaining risks.

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 6-8+ years of experience in software development and/or test automation.
• Strong proficiency in C# and automated testing of APIs, services, and user interfaces.
• Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines.
• Demonstrated experience maintaining automation suites at scale, including debugging and stabilizing flaky tests.
• Solid understanding of Agile/Scrum development methodologies and cross‑functional team collaboration.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.

• Experience working with complex enterprise, financial, or SaaS platforms.
• Familiarity with Azure environments, SQL, and data validation strategies.
• Experience improving test observability, logging, or diagnostic tooling.
• Prior experience mentoring peers or influencing automation practices beyond a single team.

• Strong understanding of automation as a checking discipline
  , complementary to exploratory testing.
• Ability to assess risk and align automation scope accordingly.
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills, especially around explaining automation intent and outcomes.
• Ability to balance technical depth with pragmatic delivery needs.
• Comfort operating with autonomy and making quality decisions at the team level.
• Curiosity‑driven mindset with a focus on continuous improvement.
