About the Role
We're looking for a Senior QA Engineer who can bring AI into our automation framework to reduce test-authoring and maintenance time, and help streamline how we estimate QA effort. This role isn't just about writing automated tests — it's about rethinking how automation gets built, so the team spends less time on repetitive scripting and more time on high-value testing.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain scalable automation frameworks (UI, API, and/or mobile) using modern tools (e.g., Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, Appium, RestAssured).
- Integrate AI/LLM-based tooling into the automation pipeline to:
- Auto-generate or suggest test scripts/test data from requirements, user stories, or existing test cases.
- Speed up locator/selector maintenance and reduce flaky test upkeep.
- Summarize test failures and triage root causes faster.
- Identify repetitive or manual QA activities and propose AI-assisted or scripted solutions to cut turnaround time.
- Help refine and reduce QA estimation timelines by identifying where automation and AI tooling can replace manual effort.
- Build and maintain CI/CD test pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar).
- Collaborate with developers to embed automated tests early in the development cycle (shift-left testing).
- Mentor other QA engineers on automation best practices and AI-assisted testing techniques.
- Continuously evaluate new AI-powered testing tools (e.g., self-healing test tools, AI test-generation platforms)
and recommend adoption where valuable.
Qualifications
- 3–5 years of QA experience with strong hands-on automation background.
- Proficiency in at least one automation framework/tool (Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, Appium, etc.).
- Solid programming/scripting skills (JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, or Java).
- Practical experience using AI tools/APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Claude, Copilot, or similar) to assist in code/test generation, or a robust interest and aptitude to build this capability.
- Experience with API testing (Postman, RestAssured, or similar).
- Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines.
- Strong understanding of test estimation practices and ability to identify automation ROI.
- Good understanding of software testing life cycle (STLC) and QA best practices.
Required Skills
- Experience building custom scripts/tools that use LLMs for test case generation, data generation, or log/error analysis.
- Familiarity with prompt engineering for test-related use cases.
- Experience with self-healing automation frameworks or AI-augmented testing platforms (e.g., Testim, Mabl, Functionize).
- Exposure to performance or load testing tools.
Pay range and compensation package
What Success Looks Like
- Reduced automation development and maintenance time through AI-assisted workflows.
- More accurate and faster QA effort estimates.
- A more resilient, scalable automation framework that requires less manual upkeep.
