QA Automation Engineer - Full Stack

Habilidades: API, JavaScript, QA - Quality Assurance, TypeScript

O que nós buscamos:

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Own and expand quality engineering across our backend services and frontend portals.
• Drive automation expansion in repositories that lack adequate coverage, prioritizing high‑risk and high‑traffic surfaces.
• Lead the effort to identify, triage, and eliminate flaky tests — treating flakiness as a first‑class engineering problem rather than background noise.
• Own QA gates in the release process — define and enforce what 'ready to promote' means as code moves through environments.
• Take ownership of our central end‑to‑end testing repository, optimizing its runtime, reporting, and coverage.
• Extend our testing tooling and CI/CD pipelines — this is a builder role, not a maintainer role.
• Scope and lead a contract testing rollout across our service‑to‑service interfaces.
• Partner with engineering early — review designs and technical specs for testability before code is written.
• Codify regressions after incidents — when bugs reach production, ensure the same class of bug can't recur silently.
• Collaborate with infrastructure and operations on CI/CD reliability, test runtime, and runner stability.

YOUR FIRST 90 DAYS:

• Days 1–30: Become fluent in our testing infrastructure and tooling. Run our test suites end‑to‑end across pre‑production environments. Shadow a release cycle.
• Days 31–60: Ship meaningful new coverage in at least two service repositories. Begin instrumenting flaky‑test detection. Start contributing to our central end‑to‑end testing repository.
• Days 61–90: Take full ownership of the central end‑to‑end testing repository. Propose and begin executing a CI/CD QA improvement plan. Deliver a recommendation on the contract testing rollout.

Principais responsabilidades:

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:

• 3–5 years in an SDET, QA Automation, or equivalent role on a production SaaS product.
• Strong TypeScript skills — our integration test layer is TS‑based regardless of the underlying service language.
• Hands‑on experience with a modern testing framework (Vitest, Jest, Playwright, or similar).
• AWS Lambda or serverless testing experience — comfortable with mocking, event‑driven flows, async retry behavior, and using cloud logs as a debugging surface.
• REST and GraphQL contract and integration testing experience.
• Bash fluency — comfortable reading and extending shell scripts.
• CI/CD pipeline ownership experience (GitHub Actions or comparable) — matrix strategies, artifact passing, runner concurrency.
• A track record of measurably reducing test flakiness in a prior role.
• Reads Go and Python well enough to add unit tests, debug failures, and review test PRs.
• Clear written communication — bug reports, test plans, and release sign‑offs that engineers and non‑engineers can both act on.
• Fluent English (C1 or higher) — near‑native written and spoken.

NICE TO HAVE:

• Multi‑tenant or multi‑environment test design experience.
• Prior ownership of a shared or central test harness used across multiple service repositories.
• Familiarity with capability‑based or tag‑based test selection.
• Experience with idempotency, retry, and webhook‑replay testing patterns.
• Prior involvement in a Pact or contract testing rollout.
• Payments, banking, or other regulated‑industry exposure.
• Experience building test reporting dashboards or surfacing test health metrics to engineering leadership.
• Familiarity with feature‑flag‑driven rollout patterns.
• Comfort with AI‑assisted development tooling.
