Job description

We need a Senior Quality Test Engineer who can own test execution end to end—designing and maintaining test scenarios, performing thorough manual testing, and building reliable automated tests. You’ll manage defects through to resolution, provide clear status and risk updates, and partner closely with delivery, QA, and product teams to ensure customer environments and platform features are released with confidence.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

• Take ownership of the delivery team’s test strategy and drive effective execution.
• Contribute to the timely and high-quality delivery of customer environments through effective test planning and execution.
• Define and adapt test coverage to align with customer requirements and delivery priorities.
• Maintain test scenarios and test execution records in the test management tool to support traceability, effective execution and accurate reporting.
• Identify, log, and document defects in bug-tracking tools to drive timely resolution.
• Track and troubleshoot defects with developers and stakeholders through to closure.
• Provide clear testing status updates in stand‑ups and planning sessions, highlighting risks and priorities.
• Build and maintain automated tests using Node.js/JavaScript (Mocha, WebdriverIO).
• Partner with QA and product teams to automate test coverage for new and existing platform features.

MUST HAVES

• Bachelor’s Degree holder.
• Outstanding written and verbal communication skills
• Strong team working, problem solving, and critical thinking skills
• Proven manual test design and execution (test scenarios/cases, exploratory and regression testing) aligned to customer requirements in UI, Mobile and API layers.
• Strong defect management: identify, reproduce, document, and track issues in a bug-tracking tool through to closure.
• Test management discipline: create and maintain test scenarios and test cycles in a test management tool.
• Strong hands-on coding experience, with the ability to build and maintain test automation within a codebase rather than relying on record-and-playback tools.
• Experience with JavaScript, Node.js, Mocha, and WebdriverIO is preferred.
• Strong analytical skills and a high attention to detail, with the ability to document and design effective test scenarios.
• Ability to quickly learn and apply enterprise AI tools and technologies to support technical workflows and business objectives.

Highly Desirable

• Demonstrated experience automating complex UI and API workflows, including authentication, session management, and end-to-end validation.
• Experience using Jira and Zephyr to manage testing requirements, execution, and defects.
• Experience using Postman and Figma.
