Position Overview:

Anaqua is looking for a QA Automation Engineer to own the quality strategy for our Platform & Microservices team — someone who builds robust, scalable test automation that gives the team confidence to ship fast.

You will design test frameworks from the ground up, automate across UI, API, and service layers, integrate quality gates into CI/CD pipelines, and champion a shift-left culture where defects are caught early and quality is everyone’s responsibility.

You’ll love this job if you like to:

UI & E2E TEST AUTOMATION
- Build and maintain E2E test suites for web applications using Playwright (preferred) or Cypress, leveraging page object models and up-to-date patterns
- Perform cross-browser and responsive testing across desktop and mobile viewports
- Conduct visual regression testing to catch unintended UI changes (Percy, Chromatic, or equivalent)
- Improve test stability by handling dynamic content, waits, retries, and mitigating flaky tests

API & MICROSERVICE TESTING
- Automate testing of RESTful APIs, including request/response validation,



schema validation, and authentication flows
- Implement contract testing between microservices to catch breaking changes early (Pact or equivalent)
- Test gRPC services, including protocol buffer validation, streaming endpoints, and error handling
- Validate event-driven architectures by testing message queues, producers/consumers, and async workflows
- Use tools like Postman, REST Assured, or custom HTTP clients for exploratory and automated API testing

TEST FRAMEWORK DESIGN
- Design modular, scalable, and maintainable test automation frameworks from scratch
- Apply data-driven and keyword-driven test design patterns for scalable test coverage
- Manage test data including fixtures, factories, seed data, and environment configurations
- Enable parallel test execution and test sharding to accelerate feedback cycles

PROGRAMMING & SCRIPTING
- Write clean, maintainable test automation code in TypeScript or Ja
