Job Overview

Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Automation QA Engineer to join our dynamic team.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in developing and maintaining robust automation frameworks, with expertise in API and UI automation, and a deep understanding of Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) principles. You will play a key role in integrating automation into our CI/CD pipelines and fostering a culture of quality within an agile development environment.

Key Responsibilities

  •  Design, develop, and maintain scalable, robust, and efficient automated test scripts and frameworks for both UI and API layers.
  • Collaborate with product owners, developers, and other QA engineers to define and implement test scenarios using Gherkin syntax (Given/When/Then) within Cucumber.
  • Develop and execute automated tests for RESTful APIs to ensure data integrity, functionality, and performance, using appropriate tools and frameworks.
  • Create and maintain automated UI test suites using Selenium WebDriver and other Java/UI-based automation tools to validate user interfaces and end-to-end user flows.
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of automation frameworks, tools, and processes, ensuring reusability, maintainability, and efficiency.
  • Integrate automated tests into continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines to enable rapid feedback and early defect detection.
  • Execute automated test suites, analyze results, identify defects, and report on test coverage and quality metrics.
  • Work closely with development, product management, and DevOps teams to understand requirements, define test strategies, and ensure quality throughout the software development lifecycle.
  • Share knowledge and promote best practices in automation testing, including test-driven development (TDD) and behavior-driven development (BDD).
  • Assist in troubleshooting production issues by leveraging testing expertise and collaborating with development teams.

Required Skills and Qualifications

  • Proven experience (8+ years) as an Automation QA Engineer or similar role, with a strong focus on automated testing.
  • In-depth hands-on experience with Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) frameworks, specifically Cucumber and writing feature files using Gherkin syntax.
  • Strong proficiency in Java for developing automation scripts and frameworks.
  • Expertise in designing, developing, and maintaining automated UI tests using Selenium WebDriver and other relevant Java/UI based automation tooling (e.g., TestNG, JUnit).
  • Solid experience in automating RESTful API tests, including understanding of HTTP methods, status codes, and data formats (JSON/XML).
  • Strong understanding of software testing methodologies, tools, and processes.
  • Experience with version control systems, preferably Git.
  • Familiarity with integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps).
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with a keen eye for detail.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively in an agile, cross-functional team environment.

Good-to-Have Skills

  • Experience with other programming languages (e.g., Python, JavaScript) for automation.
  • Knowledge of performance testing and security testing principles.
  • Familiarity with containerization technologies like Docker and orchestration tools like Kubernetes.
  • Experience with cloud platforms (Openshift, AWS).
  • Understanding of microservices architecture and testing strategies for distributed systems.
  • Experience with defect tracking and test management tools (e.g., Jira, Zephyr).
