Test Engineer 100% Remote

JOBSTODAY.WORLD; Singapore; On-site; SGD 13,000 - 17,000; Full time

Job summary

JOBSTODAY.WORLD in Singapore seeks a test automation engineer to own and extend the end-to-end test suite across client projects.

You will work with AI coding tools daily (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) to move faster while ensuring tests remain robust and readable.

Responsibilities include integrating tests against real Postgres, covering multi-tenant isolation, permissions, AI-driven features, and CI reliability. Strong TypeScript skills and fluent English are essential.

Qualifications

• 3+ years in test automation with production ownership of a suite.
• Strong TypeScript: read and write application code.
• Hands-on Playwright, Cypress, or equivalent.
• Experience testing against real databases and understanding test isolation.
• Daily use of AI coding tools with critical review of AI output.
• Fluent in English; Filipino language proficiency.
• Available to work in Central European Time.

Responsibilities

• Extend Playwright E2E coverage across new and existing features.
• Write integration tests against real Postgres - we don't mock the database.
• Cover the hard paths: multi-tenant isolation, permission boundaries, AI Recruiter funnel state transitions, screening form flows, email delivery and inbound polling.
• Test AI-dependent features sensibly - where output is non-deterministic, assert on structure and constraints rather than exact strings.
• Maintain and speed up the existing suite; a slow suite gets ignored.
• Build test data factories and fixtures so writing new tests stays cheap.
• Own CI test reliability - flaky tests get fixed, not retried.
• Do exploratory testing on new features before release, and file bugs with reproduction steps that actually reproduce.

Job description

You'll own test automation for our clients projects - extending and maintaining the suite, closing coverage gaps, and making sure the parts of the product that are hard to assert automatically don't quietly break.

We work with AI coding tools daily. Claude Code, Cursor, and similar are part of how this team ships, and we expect you to use them to move faster than a traditional QA engineer could. Writing forty Playwright specs in an afternoon is a reasonable expectation when the tooling is used well.

But that only works if you can read what the model produced and know whether it's right. A test that passes for the wrong reason is worse than no test - it's a false signal that costs us a production bug later. Judgment is the job. The tools just make it faster.

What you'll do

• Extend Playwright E2E coverage across new and existing features
• Write integration tests against real Postgres - we don't mock the database
• Cover the hard paths: multi-tenant isolation, permission boundaries, the AI Recruiter funnel state transitions, screening form flows, email delivery and inbound polling
• Test AI-dependent features sensibly - where output is non-deterministic, assert on structure and constraints rather than exact strings
• Maintain and speed up the existing suite; a slow suite gets ignored
• Build test data factories and fixtures so writing new tests stays cheap
• Own CI test reliability - flaky tests get fixed, not retried
• Do exploratory testing on new features before release, and file bugs with reproduction steps that actually reproduce

What we're looking for

Required

• 3+ years in test automation with production ownership of a suite
• Strong TypeScript - you can read and write application code, not just test scripts
• Hands-on Playwright, Cypress, or equivalent
• Experience testing against real databases and understanding test isolation
• Daily use of AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot or similar) with a clear sense of where they help and where they mislead
• You can review AI-generated code critically and explain why you rejected something
• Good written English - you'll be filing bugs and writing docs
• Fluent in Filipino
• Must be available to work in Central European Time

Nice to have

• Drizzle ORM, or comfort with SQL-first ORMs
• Experience testing multi-tenant SaaS - tenant isolation bugs are the ones that hurt
• Experience testing LLM-dependent features
• API and load testing

Compensation and benefits

• $900 - $1200/month depending on experience
