About Us:

We are an engineering consultancy bridging Quality Engineering, Cloud Platforms and Developer Experience. Our values challenge us to do the best we can for ClearRoute, our customers and most importantly our team. We want to create a collaborative team to help build ClearRoute. This is an opportunity for you to build a consultancy from the ground up, use your voice to drive change and help transform organisations and problem domains.

Role

We are seeking a SDET (Software Development Engineer in Test) experienced in API automation, data validation, and AI-enabled systems. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience building automation frameworks in Python and exposure to validating AI or data-driven systems deployed at scale.

This role involves working closely with engineering and data teams to ensure the reliability and performance of applications that integrate AI/ML components, Agentic AI workflows, and large-scale data processing pipelines.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement API automation frameworks using Python (PyTest, Requests, or Robot Framework).
  • Automate validation for AI-driven systems, including Agentic AI, LLMs, and data pipelines.
  • Test and validate RESTful APIs, data services, and backend microservices for reliability and performance.
  • Build and maintain automated regression suites for large-scale, data-intensive systems.
  • Integrate automated tests within CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or Jenkins.
  • Work with data teams to validate data transformations, ETL pipelines, and batch processing jobs.
  • Ensure consistent testing coverage across AI services, data APIs, and integration layers.
  • Contribute to framework enablement, mentoring peers and improving test automation standards.

Required Qualifications

  • Ideally have experience in Python for test automation.
  • Proficiency in API testing frameworks such as PyTest, Requests, Robot Framework, or Behave.
  • Good understanding of RESTful APIs.
  • Experience working with data-heavy systems and validating ETL pipelines or data transformations.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD, Git, and Azure DevOps pipelines.
  • Strong understanding of test design, debugging, and failure analysis.
  • Hands-on experience testing or validating AI services (e.g., LLMs, Cognitive Services, or Agentic AI systems).
