Senior QA Automation Engineer
Senior QA Automation Engineer
Role Summary
They're scouting a Senior QA Automation Engineer who dominates manual and automated testing with ruthless precision, primed to charge into an AI-powered engineering battlefield. Here, quality isn't an afterthought—it's the iron core of product supremacy. Your strikes will secure the reliability, stability, and unbreakable trust in features that power the financial worlds of thousands. You'll build impenetrable automation frameworks, plunge into intense manual and exploratory testing, and leverage LLMs alongside AI-driven QA weapons to accelerate test generation, preempt risks with deadly accuracy, and drive flawless, high-velocity weekly releases. If fusing elite tech skills, QA dominance, and AI-enhanced workflows to demolish ambitious targets sets your pulse racing, this is your kill zone.
Skills
Mastery in manual testing, regression runs, and exploratory hunts
Battle-tested with test management beasts like JIRA, Linear, and kin
Deep command of automation frameworks: Maestro, Appium, Selenium, or their sharp equivalents
Street-smart with AI-driven testing platforms (Testim, Mabl, AutonomIQ, or the like), and primed to snap up bleeding-edge AI gear
Grip on SDLC, Agile rhythms, test blueprints, and defect kill chains
What you'll do
Execute manual, functional, regression, and exploratory strikes across mobile and web battlegrounds
Architect, sharpen, and unleash automated test arsenals to back rapid, rock-solid releases
Wield LLMs and AI-charged QA tools for:
Smart test case spawning
Self-mending test scripts
Preemptive failure hunts
Turbocharged debugging and triage
Sync tight with engineers and PMs to map risk zones and plug testing voids
Craft and guard test docs, defect dispatches, and QA war rooms
Drive QA evolution, steering the squad to peak velocity
Blast product vitals, risks, and quality fallout across the frontlines
Back weekly launches with blistering test loops and zero-delay response
What we're looking for
5+ years owning full-stack QA, from manual grit to automation firepower
Proven scars designing, scripting, and firing off manual cases plus automated barrages
Real-world runs with AI/LLM accelerators in QA ops—like smart test birth, self-healing, glitch prophecy, or LLM debug assists
Razor analytical, debug assassin, and puzzle-crushing prowess
Command of mobile and web testing doctrines
Time in the trenches of user-facing, high-traffic app wars
Elite written and verbal strike comms
Lead or managerial QA stints? Extra edge
Who you are
You own the rush of shipping flawless, stable, user-crushing products
You juggle automation muscle with surgical manual probes, nailing when to deploy each blade
You hunt proactively, obsess over details, and smoke out edge-case demons before users blink
You zero in on business thunder, ranking bugs and flows that hit users and product hardest
You feast in startup blitz mode with weekly ship cycles
You devour fresh tools—AI QA rockets especially—and chase efficiency like prey
You cut through noise as a communicator and team puzzle slayer
