  • Collaborate with developers to identify and automate high-value test cases early in development.
  • Maintain and extend existing manual and automated test case documentation.
  • Create test data and environment setup scripts for repeatable, isolated test runs.
  • Monitor pipeline test results, investigate failures, and report issues in Jira.
  • Continuously improve automation coverage, reporting, and stability of tests.
  • Work with existing QA members to elevate their skill set in the automation space.

  • Strong skills in TypeScript or JavaScript.
  • Experience testing REST APIs and validating request/response data.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD tools (Woodpecker CI, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Drone, etc.).
  • Understanding of Git workflows, PR testing, and version control practices.
  • Experience authoring clear, maintainable test cases and automation scripts.
  • Basic understanding of .NET, Angular, and containerized environments (Podman/Docker).


Preferred Skills

  • Experience writing API test suites in Postman or Playwright’s API module.
  • Knowledge of SQL for data validation and test verification.
  • Understanding of QA metrics, test coverage analysis, and reporting.


Soft Skills

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving ability.
  • Excellent communication and documentation skills.
  • Comfortable working closely with developers and DevOps engineers.
  • Proactive and detail-oriented, with a focus on improving test quality and speed.
