Job Summary

We're looking for a dedicated Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) to take complete ownership of our integration testing framework. This role is a pivotal link between our development and quality assurance teams, focusing on building a robust, scalable, and automated testing infrastructure.

This is a hands-on role that requires a strong technical background and a passion for quality.

  • Architectural Guidance: Work closely with the development team to ensure new feature implementations are designed with strong testability as a core requirement. You will gate features based on the architectural design's ability to support comprehensive integration testing.
  • Feature Awareness: Maintain deep knowledge of upcoming features and new development work, allowing you to proactively design and prepare the necessary testing infrastructure.
  • Test Implementation & Management: Manage the backlog of integration tests to be implemented and be a hands-on contributor, writing, running, and debugging test cases. You will also oversee the delivery of the testing framework for use by other team members, including manual testers.
Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • 5+ years of proven experience in designing and implementing automated integration testing frameworks.
  • 5+ years of professional experience and expert-level proficiency in Python
  • 1-2 years of working knowledge of C++
  • Experience with GUI test automation frameworks (e.g., Qt Test, Squish, Selenium, Playwright).
  • A proactive and self-starting attitude, with a demonstrated ability to take ownership, drive tasks to completion, and make things happen with minimal supervision.
  • Experience with testing methodologies, tools, and best practices.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to influence technical decisions.
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.
  • Experience with continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.
  • Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines and tools, particularly Jenkins.
  • Proficiency working in a Linux environment.
  • Experience with containerization technologies like Docker.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with Rust as a replacement for C++ is highly desirable.
