We are seeking a Senior SDET Engineer to drive quality engineering initiatives across modern web applications and distributed systems.
This role focuses on designing, building, and scaling advanced automation frameworks that improve software reliability and delivery speed.
You will work across UI, API, and integration testing while embedding automation practices into CI/CD workflows.
The position offers the opportunity to influence testing architecture, improve engineering standards, and mentor other team members.
You will collaborate closely with developers, product teams, architects, and DevOps engineers in a highly technical environment.
The ideal candidate will bring strong automation expertise, engineering mindset, and a passion for building maintainable quality solutions.

Accountabilities:

The Senior SDET Engineer will be responsible for designing and implementing robust automation solutions that support continuous delivery and high-quality software releases. The role requires ownership of automation frameworks, test strategy, and collaboration across engineering teams to improve product quality and reliability.

  • Design, develop, and maintain scalable end-to-end automation frameworks using Playwright and TypeScript, applying best practices such as Page Object Model (POM) and component-based architecture.
  • Build and enhance API automation frameworks for REST, GraphQL, and SOAP services using Python and pytest, including reusable test utilities, fixtures, and validation libraries.
  • Integrate automated testing into CI/CD pipelines using tools such as Jenkins and GitHub Actions, creating reliable quality gates for smoke, regression, functional, and deployment validation testing.
  • Improve automation stability by identifying flaky tests, optimizing execution performance, and enhancing reporting and monitoring capabilities.
  • Develop and maintain service virtualization solutions using WireMock or similar tools to support reliable testing of dependent systems.
  • Establish automation standards, reusable frameworks, coding guidelines, and engineering best practices across quality initiatives.
  • Partner with development, product, and DevOps teams to improve application testability, delivery processes, and overall software quality.
  • Mentor junior and mid-level automation engineers through technical guidance, code reviews, and knowledge sharing.
  • Maintain test traceability, quality metrics, and reporting through collaboration tools and test management platforms.
  • Evaluate emerging testing technologies and recommend improvements to automation strategies and engineering practices.

Requirements:

The ideal candidate will have strong experience in software quality engineering, automation development, and modern testing frameworks, with the ability to design scalable solutions for complex applications.

  • 5+ years of experience in Software Quality Engineering, Test Automation, or SDET roles.
  • Strong hands-on experience building Playwright-based automation frameworks using TypeScript.
  • Extensive experience with API automation using Python and pytest.
  • Experience testing REST, GraphQL, and SOAP APIs in distributed or microservices-based environments.
  • Proven experience designing automation frameworks from the ground up and maintaining scalable test architectures.
  • Strong understanding of automation principles including test isolation, reusable fixtures, data-driven testing, and framework design patterns.
  • Experience integrating automated testing into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Docker, or similar technologies.
  • Hands-on experience with Git workflows, pull requests, and version control best practices.
  • Experience with Jira or similar tools for test management, traceability, and sprint reporting.
  • Knowledge of mocking and service virtualization approaches, including WireMock or equivalent solutions.
  • Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills with the ability to diagnose complex automation and application issues.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills with the ability to collaborate across technical teams.
  • Comfortable working independently in Agile/Scrum environments.

Preferred qualifications include:

  • Experience migrating Selenium-based automation frameworks to Playwright.
  • Knowledge of Java testing frameworks such as TestNG or JUnit.
  • Familiarity with Spring Boot microservices and distributed architectures.
  • Experience with performance testing tools such as k6, Gatling, or Locust.
  • Exposure to observability and monitoring tools for troubleshooting automation issues.
  • Experience with enterprise test data management strategies.
  • ISTQB Advanced Certification or equivalent.
  • Experience working on high-traffic digital products or platforms.

Benefits:

  • Remote work flexibility.
  • Opportunity to work on modern automation frameworks and large-scale digital products.
  • Exposure to advanced technologies across automation, cloud, AI, and enterprise software environments.
  • Professional growth opportunities through technical training and hands-on experience.
  • Collaborative environment focused on innovation, engineering excellence, and continuous learning.
  • Opportunity to contribute to impactful solutions for diverse business challenges.
  • Access to a global technology community and cross-functional collaboration opportunities.
