What We re Looking For (Must-Have)

Core Engineering

- Expert-level Java / Python (OOP, data structures, design patterns)
- Proven experience building automation frameworks from scratch
- Hands-on Playwright experience for modern UI automation
- Strong API and integration testing (REST, microservices)
- CI/CD experience with automated quality gates (TeamCity, Jenkins, GitHub)
- Solid understanding proficiency with SQL, handling backend data stores and performing data validation
- Experience validating high-availability, low-latency systems
- Practical, maintainable BDD implementations

Distributed Systems Reliability

- Strong understanding of microservices and event-driven architectures
- Experience with performance, load, stress, and resilience testing
- Ability to debug using logs, metrics, and traces
- Using production telemetry to guide quality strategy

AI-Driven Spec-Driven Engineering (Must-Have)

- Hands-on use of AI / GenAI tools for test design, automation coding, and debugging
- Robust AI evaluation skills-validating AI-generated code and tests
- Expertise in prompt engineering and context management
- Proven Spec-Driven Development (SDD) experience
- Experience using and developing Agents, Skills and Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations
- Ability to embed AI-assisted QE workflows safely into CI/CD
- Strong understanding of responsible AI usage and verification of AI outputs

Quality Ownership

- Experience with release certification, regression strategy, and production validation
- Hands-on incident triage and root-cause analysis
- Willingness to support production releases, including on-call rotations





- Partner with product owners, developers, architects, and platform teams to define project-specific quality strategy, acceptance criteria, testability standards, and release-readiness checkpoints.

- Design and maintain end-to-end automated test coverage for critical business journeys across UI, API, microservices, database, integration, and event-driven components.

- Build reusable test utilities, service virtualization, mocks, stubs, synthetic test data, and environment-aware automation to enable reliable execution across development and test environments.

- Integrate automated functional, regression, performance, resilience, and security-focused checks into CI/CD pipelines with clear quality gates and actionable reporting.

- Validate asynchronous workflows, message queues, event schemas, retries, idempotency, failure handling, and data consistency across distributed services.

- Use SQL, logs, metrics, traces, and production telemetry to validate backend processing, diagnose defects, support incident triage, and improve risk-based test coverage.

- Apply Spec-Driven Development by converting requirements and technical specifications into executable tests, traceable validation assets, and measurable quality outcomes.

- Use approved AI / GenAI tools to accelerate test design, automation coding, code review, debugging, and defect analysis while independently validating generated outputs.

- Contribute to framework architecture, coding standards, pull-request reviews, engineering documentation, and continuous improvement of the QE toolchain.

- Own defect quality from discovery through closure, including reproducibility, severity assessment, root-cause collaboration, regression protection, and release risk communication.

- Support release certification, production validation, post-release monitoring,



and on-call incident response as required by the project.
