Summary

Needed: SDET - Software Developer Engineer in Testing with AI Assisted Quality Engineering

Eligibility

Due to regulatory/contractual requirements, visa sponsorship or permanent resident status () cannot be accommodated.

 
Key Responsibilities: 
•            
Develop and maintain UI and API automated tests using Playwright and TypeScript. 
•            Expand the existing Playwright framework and establish reusable fixtures, API clients, utilities, and coding standards. 
•            Create automated coverage for Angular applications and Java-based REST APIs. 
•            Integrate and execute automated tests through Jenkins. 
•            Investigate failures using Playwright traces, application logs, network activity, API responses, and SQL. 
•            Validate application processing and data using Oracle SQL. 
•            Perform exploratory, functional, integration, regression, and risk-based manual testing. 
•            Review requirements and acceptance criteria for gaps, edge cases, risks, and testability. 
•            Collaborate with developers, product owners, and testers throughout story development. 
•            Participate in code reviews and improve the reliability and maintainability of the automation suite. 
•            Identify flaky, redundant, slow, or low-value tests and address their underlying causes. 
 
AI-Assisted Quality Engineering: 

SDETs are expected to use GitHub Copilot and other approved AI capabilities in their daily work to improve speed, coverage, and effectiveness.
This includes: 
•            Generating and refining Playwright TypeScript tests for UI and API scenarios. 
•            Identifying missing scenarios, edge cases, negative paths, and requirement gaps. 
•            Accelerating test-data creation, SQL queries, API requests, and reusable automation components. 
•            Analyzing failures, logs, stack traces, and Playwright traces. 
•            Refactoring repetitive, flaky, or difficult-to-maintain automation code. 
•            Creating technical documentation, test summaries, and defect details. 
•            Understanding unfamiliar application code and identifying areas of testing risk. 
•            Sharing effective AI-assisted testing practices with other team members. 
 
SDETs remain accountable for all AI-generated work. Candidates must independently review generated output for correctness, security, maintainability, test value, and alignment with established standards. AI-generated code must not be accepted simply because it compiles or passes once. 
 
Required Qualifications: 
•      
     Hands-on experience using Playwright with TypeScript for UI and API automation. 
•            Strong TypeScript programming fundamentals. 
•            Experience designing maintainable automation—not simply creating test scripts. 
•            Experience testing modern web applications, preferably Angular. 
•            Experience testing Java-based REST APIs. 
•            Strong understanding of HTTP, REST, JSON, authentication, response validation, and negative API testing. 
•            SQL experience for backend data validation, preferably with Oracle. 
•            Experience executing automated tests through Jenkins or another CI/CD platform. 
•            Experience with Git-based source control and collaborative development workflows. 
•            Ability to diagnose failures across the UI, API, database, test code, test data, and environment layers. 
•            Experience with exploratory and manual testing in addition to automation. 
•            Ability to work independently and communicate defects and quality risks clearly.
