Sr Test Engineer

Role Overview: As an Automation Test Engineer at Qualitest Group, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining automated test frameworks for distributed microservices-based applications. You will collaborate closely with developers, DevOps, and product teams to ensure service reliability, scalability, and quality across APIs and integrations. Key Responsibilities: - Own automation strategy for microservices-based applications - Design and implement scalable API and integration automation frameworks - Ensure service-level test coverage across functional, contract, and regression layers - Integrate automation into CI/CD pipelines for continuous quality - Analyze failures, improve test reliability, and reduce flakiness - Collaborate with DevOps and engineering teams to support test environments What You Will Do: - Develop automated tests for REST/GraphQL APIs and event-driven systems - Validate data consistency across services and databases - Automate service-to-service interactions using mocks and stubs - Execute automation in containerized and cloud-based environments - Monitor automation execution metrics and report quality insights What You Will Bring: Top 3 Skills: - Microservices Test Automation (API & Integration) - Java/Python Automation Frameworks - CI/CD & DevOps Tooling Additional Skills: - Excellent debugging and troubleshooting skills - Experience with Jenkins, Git, REST API, XML, JSON, HTML - Strong understanding of microservices architecture and distributed systems - Hands-on experience in building reusable automation frameworks - Java/Python programming for automation frameworks - API Testing proficiency (Rest Assured, Postman, REST/GraphQL APIs) - Event-driven automation (REST/gRPC/WebSocket, Kafka/MQTT testing) - Contract & schema validation expertise - Async workflow simulation and event bus testing (Kafka, NATS) - API contract testing tools (Karate, Swagger mocks, pact testing) - Observability & monitoring tools (OpenTelemetry, Grafana, ELK, Prometheus, Splunk) - Passion for quality-first engineering and continuous improvement Qualifications Required: - Bachelors degree in computer science, Engineering, or equivalent - 47 years of experience in automation testing for microservices systems - Prior experience working in Agile/Scrum teams Knowledge and Skills: - API automation using Rest Assured, Karate, Postman, or similar tools - Programming in Java, Python, or Kotlin - Contract testing (Pact or similar) - CI/CD tools: Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI - Containers & Cloud: Docker, Kubernetes (basic understanding) - SQL/NoSQL database validation Good to Have Additional Skills: - Performance testing with JMeter or Gatling - Observability tools (Splunk, Grafana, Prometheus) - Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) - Security testing fundamentals for APIs Role Overview: As an Automation Test Engineer at Qualitest Group, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining automated test frameworks for distributed microservices-based applications.
