Job description

The right Automation Engineer sees a flaky test not as noise but as a clue, and DataDriven Corp in Owensboro, KY has clues worth chasing. Honestly, the draw is the ownership: $49,000 - $75,000 and part-time hours come standard, but the technology reins are the real prize.

• Sketch Karate sequence diagrams that make the technology flow obvious to everyone
• Wrangle API Testing config across environments so Owensboro staging mirrors production
• Keep Performance Testing schemas backward-compatible so DataDriven Corp never forces a breaking upgrade
• Reach into legacy Jest modules and leave them cleaner than you found them
• Lead API Testing design reviews that catch the costly mistakes before Owensboro, KY builds them
• Build the gloriously-unglamorous Interpersonal Skills feature that wins back the KY accounts DataDriven Corp lost
• Coordinate releases with stakeholders across Owensboro, KY and remote teams

What You'll Bring

• Working knowledge of TestCafe alongside transferable Karate chops
• Bachelor's degree in a related field, or equivalent practical experience
• Junior-caliber judgment about when to elevate and when to absorb
