Senior QA Automation Engineer

Join our team as a Senior QA Automation Engineer who treats AI agents as collaborators. You will build Playwright suites, design autonomous test agents, and shape QA for an agent-driven SDLC where manual testing is the exception.

Responsibilities:

• Execute end-to-end automation with Playwright (UI + API) across backend services.
• Daily use of Claude Code agents, skills, and MCP servers to generate test cases, data & edge cases directly from requirements/PRs.
• Design AI agents that own SDLC slices including PR-triggered test design, autonomous regression triage, and release sign-off.
• Build custom Claude skills/MCP servers integrating QA with Jira, CI/CD, ScyllaDB/Kafka, and observability tools.
• Leverage AI for defect prediction, flaky test detection, and root cause analysis.
• Perform SQL-based data validation across transactional & analytical systems.

Requirements:

• 5+ years in QA with an automation-first mindset.
• Strong hands-on experience with Playwright or Cypress for UI + API automation.
• Proficiency in JS/TypeScript and Postman/Insomnia.
• Fluent working knowledge of Claude Code, Cursor, or Copilot for test generation & review.
• Solid grasp of AI/ML fundamentals, prompt engineering, context management, and evaluating LLM output reliability.
• Knowledge of SQL, CI tooling (GitHub Actions/Jenkins), Agile/Scrum methodologies.
• Comfort treating AI agents as first-class collaborators, knowing when to trust, verify, or override their outputs.

Bonus Points:

• Experience building MCP servers or custom Claude skills/tools.
• Background in agentic test orchestration.
• Demonstrated measurement of AI-assisted productivity metrics (test velocity, coverage uplift, defect escape rate).
• Previous experience with distributed systems / event-driven architecture / B2B SaaS.
