About the Role
We are looking for an experienced QA Automation Engineer to join a large-scale modernization initiative to transform a legacy platform into a modern cloud-native microservices ecosystem.
You will work closely with multiple engineering squads, helping build and maintain automated quality processes that support modern software delivery, cloud-native applications, AI-assisted development workflows, and continuous integration practices.
This is not a traditional manual QA role. We are looking for someone who can help build quality into the development lifecycle through automation, scalable testing strategies, and collaboration with engineers working in fast-paced delivery environments.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, maintain, and execute automated regression test suites.
- Develop automated tests for log and metric ingestion pipelines.
- Validate search and query functionality, accuracy, and latency.
- Test distributed tracing accuracy and end-to-end telemetry flows.
- Validate alert delivery, firing conditions, and routing behavior.
- Develop automated tests for audit trail queries, integrity, and expected system behavior.
- Validate Infrastructure as Code (IaC) deployments, including clean-state deployments, reproducibility, and zero-manual-step expectations.
- Execute and help design load and scalability testing against defined performance targets.
- Execute failure-injection scenarios and validate expected platform behavior.
- Run regression testing across multiple versions and environments in parallel.
- Identify, document, triage, and track defects against formal acceptance criteria.
- Verify fixes and execute appropriate regression testing before quality sign-off.
- Collaborate with the Test Architect and engineering teams to continuously improve regression coverage.
- Maintain clear and reproducible automation code and testing documentation.
- Provide regression evidence during sprint reviews and contribute to quality status reporting.
- Work within Agile sprint cycles using formal acceptance criteria and Definition of Done (DoD).
