Job description

Senior Automation Tester

We are seeking a Senior Automation Tester with 5-8 years of demonstrable, hands-on experience in software test automation. The ideal candidate has built and maintained automation frameworks from the ground up, writes production-quality code in Java or python, and applies strong SQL skills to validate data end-to-end.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain robust automated test scripts using Selenium WebDriver and test frameworks such as TestNG or JUnit.
• Write complex SQL queries to validate data accuracy across databases including Snowflake, Redshift, Oracle, and Netezza.
• Build and enhance test automation frameworks (Page Object Model, data-driven, keyword-driven) from scratch.
• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines and manage execution at scale.
• Collaborate with developers, BAs, and product managers in an Agile/Scrum environment using Jira.
• Analyse test results, identify defect patterns, and drive root cause analysis.
• Mentor junior QA engineers and champion testing best practices across the team.
• Write and maintain Unix shell scripts for test environment setup and automation support.

Requirements

• 5-8 years of hands-on Automation Testing experience (not manual testing with basic automation exposure).
• Real-world project experience with Selenium WebDriver - theoretical knowledge only is a disqualifier.
• Ability to write complex SQL queries (joins, aggregations, subqueries) independently; no SQL knowledge is a disqualifier.
• Proficiency in Java and/or Python - must be able to write, debug, and review automation code; basic familiarity is insufficient.
• Experience with at least one test automation framework (TestNG, JUnit, PyTest, or equivalent).
• Bachelor's degree in Engineering (BTech) or a related technical field.

Work Arrangements

• Full-time position.
• Location: Bengaluru, Karnataka, India.
• Shift/schedule details: Full-time.
