  • Translate functional requirements into scalable, automated test solutions for functional, regression, and integration testing.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to optimize delivery processes and improve testing standards.
  • Train and mentor team members on automation best practices and emerging technologies.
  • Participate in product design discussions and influence technical decisions to enhance testability.
  • Stay ahead of industry trends to introduce innovative tools and techniques that elevate quality assurance.

What We’re Looking For:

  • 5–7 years of QA experience with strong automation expertise.
  • Proficiency in Ruby/Cucumber and experience with frameworks like SpecFlow.
  • Solid understanding of TDD, ATDD, and modern SDLC practices.
  • Hands-on experience with tools such as JIRA/ADO, Xray/Zephyr, SQL Server, and web technologies (HTML, JavaScript).
  • Strong knowledge of object-oriented programming (Ruby, Java, or C# preferred).
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to work in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.

Preferred Skills:

  • Experience designing automation frameworks and performance testing (e.g., JMeter).
  • Familiarity with Ruby gems, MVC frameworks, and reusable script patterns.
  • Database expertise (Oracle, MS SQL) and service testing experience.
  • Active participation in open-source communities is a plus.

Why Join Us?

  • Work on high-impact projects that shape digital transformation.
  • Be part of a forward-thinking team that values innovation and continuous learning.
  • Opportunity to lead, mentor, and influence automation strategy at scale.
