Designation: SDET I

Office Location: Gurgaon

Position Description: As an SDET I, you will play a vital role in automation and quality validation for our real-time bidding (RTB) exchange platform, its web-facing integrations, and SDK connectivity across the ad-tech stack. This role is central to ensuring reliability, data accuracy, and performance across bid processing, exchange-to-SSP/MMP integrations, and the web layer that surfaces this data to internal and partner stakeholders. The role carries a primary automation mandate (80%) with a smaller manual testing component (20%) for exploratory, ad-hoc, and release-validation scenarios that automation does not yet cover.

Primary Responsibilities

Design, build, and maintain automated test suites for web-based features covering RTB bid flows, exchange configuration screens, and SDK-integration touchpoints.
Validate end-to-end data flow across the RTB pipeline - bid request/response, win/loss notification, and reporting reconciliation.
Build and maintain integration test coverage for SSP (Supply-Side Platform)



and MMP (Mobile Measurement Partner) connections, verifying request/response contracts, attribution data accuracy, and postback reliability.
Write data validation and monitoring scripts to continuously verify data integrity across Kafka topics, exchange logs, and downstream reporting systems.
Configure and interpret monitoring dashboards in Datadog and Grafana to proactively detect anomalies in latency, error rates, throughput, and data pipeline health.
Collaborate with backend/RTB engineering teams to understand event schemas and Kafka topic structures, translating these into automated data-quality checks.
Execute manual/exploratory testing (20% allocation) for recent feature releases, edge cases, and scenarios not yet covered by automation — particularly around new
SSP/MMP onboarding or exchange configuration changes.
Triage and document defects with clear reproduction steps, working closely with development and
