SDET / QA Automation Engineer (Fintech/Web3)

Join Bitrefill, a leading fintech company in the Web3 space. As an SDET/QA Automation Engineer, you will play a crucial role in transitioning our QA team from manual testing to automated, AI-augmented workflows. You will be responsible for writing, maintaining, and scaling automated test suites, integrating automated test execution into CI/CD, and collaborating with developers to understand new features. This is a mid-level role with a focus on building and maintaining test automation infrastructure.

• Ownership of regression coverage, shrinking manual test cycles, and freeing up the QA team to focus on strategy.
• Authoring and maintaining E2E automated tests with Playwright and Maestro, building out regression, smoke, and sanity suites.
• Integrating automated test execution into CI/CD, collaborating with developers to understand new features and turn requirements into automated coverage.
• Mobile test automation experience or genuine interest (Maestro, Appium, Detox, or similar)
• Solid understanding of test workflows: cases, suites, runs, reporting
• Comfortable with JavaScript/TypeScript
• Coding skills beyond test scripting, you come from a dev background and test automation is where you apply it
• Familiar with CI/CD concepts and running tests in pipelines
• 2-4 years writing and maintaining E2E automated tests. Actually writing them, not watching someone else do it
• Strong experience with at least one modern test automation framework (Cypress, Playwright, Selenium, or similar). Solid web scraping or automation experience counts too
• Already using AI tools and agentic clients (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or similar) to write and debug tests, because it makes you faster, not because someone told you to
• Dev experience that leans toward backend and infrastructure
• Comfort operating in early-stage QA environments where process isn't fixed: you'll help define what ”done” means
• Experience with API testing (REST, request/response validation)
• Experience testing e-commerce or marketplace platforms
• Experience with test management tools and APIs (Qase, TestRail, or similar)
• Experience with Spur or Maestro specifically
• Interest in Bitcoin/crypto, or experience testing payment/fintech products
• You see flaky tests as a problem to solve, not a fact of life
• Curious about how AI is changing QA. Excited about AI-augmented workflows, not intimidated by them
• Self-driven. Comfortable owning your work in a small, remote team
• You write solid automation code today and you're already thinking about how you'll work differently tomorrow
