Job Description:

Job Summary:

We are looking for a detail-oriented and proactive QA Automation Engineer with experience testing enterprise applications on the Salesforce platform. This role is critical to ensuring end-to-end quality across custom Salesforce implementations — including Lightning components, Apex code, Flows, integrations, and declarative configurations. You’ll partner closely with product, development, and release teams to implement automation-first test strategies that reduce risk and accelerate delivery.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Design, implement, and maintain automated test suites for Salesforce applications (Lightning Web Components, Flows, Apex classes, REST integrations, etc.)
2. Build reusable frameworks to test both UI and backend processes (e.g., using Selenium, Provar, Playwright, or custom frameworks with Java/Python)
3. Create and maintain robust test cases for regression, smoke, and functional testing across multiple Salesforce orgs and configurations
4. Validate end-to-end workflows including integrations with systems like DocuSign, MuleSoft, Kafka, Data Cloud, and external APIs
5. Collaborate with Salesforce developers and admins to test both custom and declarative features
6. Proactively identify quality risks in stories, features, and releases — and define mitigation strategies
7. Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or Copado)
8. Support and improve test data management strategies across sandboxes
9. Contribute to QA standards, coding practices, and documentation

Qualifications:

1. Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, or related discipline
2. 3–6 years of QA experience, with at least 2+ years in test automation for Salesforce
3. Strong understanding of the Salesforce platform — including data model, Apex, LWC, Flows, and Process Builder
4. Hands‑on experience with test automation tools like Cucumber, Karate, Selenium WebDriver, or similar
5. Proficiency in at least one programming language (e.g., Java, JavaScript, Python)
6. Experience testing Salesforce REST and SOAP APIs
7. Familiarity with Salesforce‑specific test management tools (e.g., TestRail, Xray, Salesforce Test AutomationFrameworks)
8. Working knowledge of Git, Jenkins, or other CI/CD tools
9. Experience writing SOQL queries for test validation and troubleshooting
10. Ability to read and debug Apex code and LWC (preferred but not mandatory)
11. Strong communication skills and a proactive, ownership‑driven mindset

Nice to Have:

1. Familiarity with Salesforce DX and scratch org workflows
2. Performance or load testing background
3. Salesforce certifications (QA or Platform Dev)
