Role Overview

We’re looking for a QA Automation Engineer to help us scale quality across a fast-moving engineering team. This role is about building the automation, processes, and release confidence that keep pace with a team already working with AI-assisted development. You’ll support a medium-sized team on your own, so independence, organization, and the ability to create scalable ways of working are essential.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement automated tests for frontend, backend, and API flows
• Use Playwright as a core testing platform, with tests written in TypeScript or C# depending on the best fit
• Test microservices-based systems with an understanding of dependencies, release sequencing, and service interactions
• Coordinate release readiness across the team, helping identify what needs to be tested first and what can go out together
• Test Azure-based and event-driven workflows, including message-based scenarios such as Service Bus topics and related integrations
• Combine automation with manual and exploratory testing where it adds the most value
• Improve the way manual testing is enabled so it remains efficient and sustainable as the team grows
• Collaborate closely with developers, the engineering manager, and other stakeholders to build a practical quality process
• Use AI-assisted tools to speed up test creation, maintenance, triage, and analysis
• Help ensure quality scales with the speed of the team instead of becoming a bottleneck

Required Experience & Skills

• At least 4 years of professional experience in QA, test automation, software engineering, or a closely related field
• Strong experience with test automation, ideally across both frontend and API testing
• Experience with Playwright or a similar modern automation framework
• Good working knowledge of TypeScript, C#, or another language used for automation
• Practical understanding of release coordination in microservices-based systems
• Experience testing APIs and backend workflows
• Familiarity with Azure or other cloud-based environments
• A practical, organized approach to working independently and structuring your own process
• Curious, adaptable, and open to using AI tools to work more efficiently
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work closely with developers and stakeholders
• A mindset that balances quality, speed, and pragmatism

Preferred

• Experience building or improving QA processes for a growing team
• Experience with event-driven or message-based systems
• Experience with infrastructure or environment concepts that help with reliable testing
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and how automated tests fit into them
• Experience using AI tools to support testing, analysis, or maintenance
• Experience working in a product-oriented, fast-moving engineering environment
• Experience with security-related or data-sensitive systems
