Sr QA Test Automation Java

Overview

We are looking for a seasoned Senior Software Engineer Test Automation (QA) to join our Digital Frameworks team. In this role, you'll drive the future of test engineering by contributing to core automation initiatives and enabling frameworks, tools, and platforms that accelerate quality across our product teams.

This is not a traditional QA role. We're seeking a full-stack automation expert who is passionate about tooling, platforms, and frameworks, capable of evaluating cutting-edge solutions—including low-code/no-code test tools, building PoCs, and influencing architecture-level decisions.

Our application stack includes Java/Spring Boot microservices on the backend and Next.js/React on the frontend, deployed to Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).

• Architect and maintain reusable automation frameworks for backend (API/microservices) and frontend (UI) testing.
• Research, evaluate, and introduce modern test automation tools (e.g., low-code/no-code, model-based testing, AI-powered test platforms).
• Lead proof-of-concepts (PoCs) for new tools and frameworks to assess fit for the organization.
• Build shared quality tooling and pipelines to be used across teams (test orchestration, data setup, mocks/stubs, parallelization, etc.).
• Collaborate with platform, Dev Ops, and product engineering teams to shift quality left and define testability patterns.
• Establish automation standards, coding guidelines, and governance models for cross-team reuse.
• Actively mentor junior engineers and guide teams in adopting quality engineering best practices.

• 10+ years of experience in Quality Engineering, with deep expertise in test automation.
• Strong programming skills in Java (Spring Boot stack) and JavaScript/Type Script (React/Next.js).
• Experience building automation frameworks using JUnit/TestNG, Cypress, Playwright, Selenium, etc.
• Proficiency in evaluating and implementing tools for test case management, test execution, and reporting.
• Demonstrated success with CI/CD-integrated testing using Azure Dev Ops, Git Hub Actions, or equivalent.
• Knowledge of Kubernetes, containers, and testing in cloud-native environments (preferably Azure).
• Familiarity with contract testing, mocking services, and test data management strategies.

• Experience with low-code/no-code automation platforms such as Testim, Tricentis Tosca, Mabl, or Katalon.
• Exposure to AI/ML-based testing, self-healing tests, or model-based test generation.
• Understanding of platform thinking and working in centralized enablement teams.
• Hands-on experience with observability and monitoring tools for test impact analysis.
