The role

The company is looking for a QA specialist who thrives on turning functional requirements into reliable, automated reality. Your mission will be to harness the established testing ecosystem to drive the automation of functional and regression tests. You will serve as the bridge between manual requirements and automated execution. By utilizing a suite of required tools, you will ensure that every new feature is functionally sound and that regression suites provide total peace of mind for end-to-end system health.

Responsibilities

  • Functional Automation & Strategy Execution: Work closely with test analysts to implement the automation strategy for functional and E2E testing, translating complex functional specifications from cross-functional stakeholders into high-impact automated test scripts to ensure comprehensive coverage across every project phase.
  • Regression Excellence: Maintain and monitor End-to-End (E2E) regression suites, ensuring they are optimized to detect regressions immediately as the system evolves.
  • Mastery of the Toolkit: Use the required testing tools to their full potential to create automated test cases and generate the precise data sets needed for deep-layer validation
  • Automated Assertions & Validations: Implement complex automated assertions across databases and various physical file types (e.g., CSV, XML, JSON, Flat Files) to ensure absolute data integrity.
  • API Test Automation: Design, implement, and maintain comprehensive automated tests for RESTful APIs to validate endpoint functionality, status codes, response times, and data payloads.
  • Identifying & Developing Tooling: Identify any specific gaps in the current tool implementation that prevent a functional test from being fully automated, and actively develop, update, or extend tools to resolve them and ensure tests can be completed.
  • The “Reuse-First” Mindset: Operate with a strict mindset of leveraging and extending existing test suites and modular components to speed up the automation of new requirements.

Requirements

  • Previous experience in software development and/or as a test automation engineer would be helpful to complement your core technical skills.
  • You have an interest or foundational background in Database and Data-Integrity Testing. While experience implementing and running tests within established frameworks is a great advantage, a strong willingness to learn and grow in this area is equally valued.
  • You have a strong analytical mindset; while a proven ability to parse and validate various file formats and database records programmatically is a great asset, a genuine willingness to learn these techniques is highly valued.
  • You enjoy working alongside Test Analysts, Developers, Product Owners, and other business analysts to ensure your automated tests provide the comprehensive coverage the business needs.
  • You understand how a single change ripples through a system and have experience managing the health of long-running regression suites.

Your Technical Toolkit

  • API & Data Validation: Proficiency with industry-standard tools (such as Postman) to build robust backend validation scripts, with a general comfort level handling various data payloads (e.g., JSON, XML, or CSV).
  • SQL & PL/SQL Proficiency: Solid previous experience in SQL and PL/SQL is ideal, and you should be comfortable navigating and querying complex database structures.
  • Python (The Asset): Knowledge of Python is a significant asset, specifically for file parsing or extending the capabilities of existing automation scripts.
  • Version Control: Familiarity with Git or similar tools to manage and monitor large-scale regression suites.
