Software Development Engineer in Test III

Role Overview

• Own and evolve the test automation platform, ensuring scalability, reliability, and ease of use
• Design and maintain robust automation frameworks across UI, API, and backend layers
• Build and enhance internal QA tools that improve test efficiency
• Drive adoption of automation best practices, coding standards, and efficient test design
• Implement and maintain test observability systems for reporting, analytics, and defect insights
• Conduct performance, load, and scalability testing for key features and services
• Develop and maintain test infrastructure, supporting containerized and distributed environments
• Collaborate closely with developers, QA, and DevOps to embed quality throughout the delivery pipeline
• Improve test reliability and flakiness detection through intelligent retry and failure analysis systems
• Contribute to continuous improvement of tooling, test data management, and CI/CD quality gates
• Research and implement emerging technologies (AI/ML, LLMs, smart test generation, etc.) to advance test automation capabilities
• Advocate for shift-left quality, influencing design and architecture discussions for better testability
• Maintain clear documentation and onboarding materials for test frameworks and platform usage

Requirements

• Experience: 5+ years in software testing or automation for web applications, SaaS platforms, or large-scale systems
• Technical Depth: Proven expertise in designing and maintaining test automation frameworks (Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, etc.)
• Programming Skills: Strong in TypeScript, JavaScript, or Python — capable of writing scalable, maintainable automation code
• Infrastructure Knowledge: Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab) and containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes)
• Cloud Proficiency: Working knowledge of GCP or AWS for test infrastructure and environment setup
• API & Backend Testing: Deep understanding of RESTful APIs, request validation, and integration testing
• Performance Testing: Experience with tools like k6, Locust, or JMeter for load and scalability validation
• Observability & Reporting: Familiarity with test reporting dashboards, metrics tracking, and alerting (Grafana, Prometheus, Slack integrations)
• Debugging Skills: Strong ability to diagnose failures in distributed systems and identify root causes quickly
• Architecture Awareness: Solid understanding of system design, micro-services, databases, and data flow across layers
• AI/ML Awareness (Preferred): Exposure to AI-assisted testing or LLM-based test generation is a plus
• Soft Skills: Excellent communication, documentation, and collaboration skills with a cross-functional mindset
• Mindset: Ownership-driven, curious about platform scalability, and passionate about building tools that enable others to test better.
