Role Overview
As a key member of the QA/Dev Team, we are looking for a hands-on, high caliber Senior QA automation engineer responsible for building scalable automation frameworks, leading release validation, and driving end-to-end quality for weekly feature releases for our next generation SimplifyVMS solution.
This is a critical role designed for rapid career progression; you’ll initially design and implement the AI-first automation ecosystem and quickly scale into Lead, overseeing a lean high velocity team.
You will serve as the primary point of contact during testing, overseeing the project lifecycle from requirements gathering to production go-live. With a mix of technical expertise, functional knowledge, and strong stakeholder management, you will ensure each feature, test release drives quality for our customers.
We value a hands-on, solutions-focused mindset, and a strong sense of ownership. If you thrive in dynamic environments, enjoy solving complex problems, and can balance technical detail with strategic delivery—this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities
Techno-Functional Leadership:
Design, build, and maintain a robust, scalable automated testing framework for web applications and APIs.
Establish the technical vision for QA, including choosing the right tools (e.g., Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, RestAssured) aligned with a modern product stack.
Integrate automated testing pipelines seamlessly into CI/CD workflows (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab, etc.).
Lead by example, writing clean, maintainable automation code while establishing coding standards and reviewing scripts from mid-level engineers.
Collaborate with Product and Engineering leadership to define automated release criteria.

Technical Expertise:
5-7 years of core experience in software test automation, with a strong emphasis on both UI and API layer testing.
Expert-level programming skills in Java, Python, JavaScript, or TypeScript.

Excellent communication skills with natural leadership traits and a desire to take ownership of the QA function.
SQL & Database Proficiency: Working experience with SQL and other relational databases for configuration and troubleshooting purposes.
