About the role
As a Developer-in-Test you will bring the use of automation, software engineering, and up to date test practices to our agile team collaborating with Developers, DevOps, QA, and Product.

- Design, write, and maintain scalable automated test suites across all layers (Unit, Integration, API, and End-to-End) and reduce redundancy in test automation
- Focus test scenarios from customer perspective both positive/negative, intention rather than implementation, while reviewing and identifying false generated positives
- Pair with development team members to implement tests at all levels, advising on unit vs. integration coverage and what tests to skip at the E2E layer
- Mentor peers on QA best practices, test design patterns, clean code in test repos, and the Testing Pyramid
- Work with Product, Business, and Engineering stakeholders to translate requirements into risk-focused test scenarios (covering both positive and negative cases).
- Participate in implementation of CI/CD pipelines for new products and monitor CI/CD pipelines, quality of builds, and analyze test failures
- Perform targeted manual testing to catch edge cases, mitigate defects early, and convert findings into repeatable automated tests.
- Contribute to the review of internal processes, services and tools and assist in identifying, aligning, and implementing improvements. Who you are:
- You understand the Testing Pyramid and
how to apply
it
- how to balance unit, integration, contract, and E2E tests for maximum build performance and low maintenance
- You have theoretical knowledge for translating business requirements to automated test cases
- You have demonstrated understanding of the different levels, types, and approaches of automated testing, the benefits and drawbacks of each type, and when to use each approach
- Strong communication skills; able to speak with a variety of stakeholders with confidence, adjusting message and delivery to meet the relevant audience
- Possesses a highly collaborative working style and demonstrated experience excelling in a cross-functional role

- Demonstrable experience creating and designing tests using REST APIs
- Proficiency in at least one modern frontend/e2e framework like Rspec, Playwright, Cypress, or Puppeteer, alongside API test automation experience.
- Practical experience integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI) and working in containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Strong proficiency with Git, including branching strategies and resolving complex merge conflicts.
- Solid understanding of the Agile SDLC (Jira), customer-centric test design, and common API security risks (OWASP Top 10) Winner of Canada's Most Admired Corporate Cultures, twice.
