Required Skills: CI/CDMicroservicesDistributed Systems

Have a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent relevant experience.
Bring typically 6–8 years of software testing or engineering experience, including at least 3 years focused on backend APIs and service-based architectures.
Have substantial hands-on experience developing test automation frameworks and integrating them into automated delivery pipelines.
Demonstrate strong proficiency in a general-purpose programming language and the ability to design, review, and debug maintainable test code.
Have a deep understanding of API testing, microservice interactions, service contracts, and distributed application behavior.
Have advanced automation design skills, including test lifecycle management, parameterized execution, mocking, shared utilities, and parallel execution.
Have practical experience testing and troubleshooting public-cloud applications, including identity and permissions, networking, compute, storage, and messaging dependencies.
Have experience with continuous integration and delivery, source control, automated quality checks, and environment configuration.
Have strong database querying skills and the ability to trace data and failures across multiple services.
Be able to turn incomplete requirements into meaningful tests and communicate technical findings clearly.

Design, build, test, and maintain shared automation frameworks, internal services, and developer tools for QA and engineering teams.
Own test strategy and execution for backend APIs, microservices, and end-to-end business workflows.
Design and extend code-based automation frameworks with reusable setup and cleanup, data-driven scenarios, dependency isolation, and clear failure reporting.
Validate business rules, API contracts, data persistence, authorization, error handling, and compatibility across services.
Test asynchronous processing and distributed-system failure conditions, including retries, duplicate events, partial failures, and delayed consistency.
Establish automated checks in continuous integration and delivery pipelines, improving feedback speed and reducing flaky tests.
Validate cloud-hosted services and deployment configurations, and troubleshoot failures using application logs, service telemetry, and infrastructure evidence.
Assess performance and resilience risks, design targeted tests, and collaborate with engineers to address identified weaknesses.
Review requirements and architecture, communicate quality risks, and mentor engineers while driving complex testing work.
