  • 2+ years of experience testing AI-powered applications, LLM systems, Agentic AI platforms, orchestration frameworks, or autonomous workflows.
  • Hands-on experience validating agent orchestration workflows, conversational AI applications, multi-step reasoning systems, and AI-driven business processes.
  • Experience testing AI orchestration frameworks such as LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, Semantic Kernel, or similar technologies.
  • Expertise in API testing, backend integration testing, UI automation, and end-to-end workflow validation.
  • Understanding of automation architecture, design patterns, anti-patterns, dependency injection, and inversion of control principles.
  • Experience in cloud-native and containerized environments such as Azure, AWS, GCP, Docker, or Kubernetes, and integrating automated test suites into CI/CD pipelines.
  • Experience validating asynchronous, event-driven, and distributed systems, with a focus on resiliency and fault tolerance.
  • Preferred: experience with AI observability, telemetry, RAG pipeline validation, vector databases, or prompt evaluation frameworks.

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and maintain scalable automation frameworks and regression test suites across UI, API, backend, and AI-driven applications.
  • Lead quality engineering initiatives for Agentic AI systems, including LLM workflows, RAG pipelines, autonomous agents, and distributed orchestration platforms.
  • Validate AI agent behaviors, including multi-agent coordination, tool calling, prompt chaining, memory retention, conversational workflows, and fallback and retry mechanisms.
  • Develop and execute functional, integration, regression, end-to-end, and performance testing strategies across cloud-native and distributed environments.
  • Collaborate with Software Engineers, Product Managers, and DevOps teams to integrate testing throughout the software development lifecycle.
  • Build reusable automation solutions to validate APIs, orchestration layers, asynchronous workflows, enterprise integrations, and AI-driven business processes.
  • Design and maintain test environments, CI/CD integrations, cloud execution platforms, and automation pipelines.
  • Establish best practices for code quality, maintainability, scalability, dependency injection, observability, and testability.
  • Lead validation of AI workflow resiliency, distributed system reliability, data consistency, and orchestration performance under failure and edge-case conditions.
  • Mentor QA engineers and contribute to QA standards, automation strategies, reporting practices, and continuous improvement.
