Software Engineer in Test

Remote Role, work to be done in PST hours.

We are hiring a Senior SDET to lead and actively execute our quality strategy within a cloud-native, serverless microservices platform on AWS — partnering closely with engineers while building and implementing scalable automation solutions hands-on.

This is not a traditional QA role. You will design, build, and evolve an automation-first testing strategy across backend services, event-driven integrations, APIs, frontend (Cypress), and CI/CD pipelines — working closely with engineering teams to reduce production defects, improve integration reliability, and modernize our overall quality approach.

Top 3 “must haves” skills:

• Strong programming skills (TypeScript/JavaScript/Node.js or similar)
• Proven experience building automation frameworks
• Deep experience testing REST APIs and distributed systems.
• Cloud-Native | Serverless | AWS

Minimum Qualifications:

• Strong programming skills (TypeScript/JavaScript/Node.js or similar)
• Proven experience building automation frameworks
• Deep experience testing REST APIs and distributed systems
• Hands-on AWS experience (Lambda, API Gateway, SQS/SNS, IAM)
• Experience with Cypress (or equivalent) for frontend automation
• CI/CD pipeline integration experience

Responsibilities:

• Redesign and enforce a scalable test strategy aligned with a healthy test pyramid
• Build robust API and integration automation frameworks
• Implement contract testing across microservices
• Validate serverless workflows (Lambda, event-driven flows, IAM, retries, DLQs)
• Integrate quality gates into CI/CD pipelines
• Reduce regression time and flaky test rates
• Mentor engineers and drive shared ownership of quality
