## About the Role

* A hands-on QA engineer with a developer mindset who is genuinely excited about legacy modernization. We are looking for someone who sees complexity as a puzzle worth solving.
 * A practical thinker who balances automated coverage with targeted manual testing, and knows that the goal is confidence, not coverage numbers.
 * Someone who is enthusiastic about AI as an enabler. Someone who is eager to experiment with AI-assisted tooling to move faster and reach further, while understanding that AI augments good engineering judgment rather than replacing it.
 * A collaborator who communicates openly, takes pride in their work and their team's work, and leaves codebases and processes better than they found them.
 * A builder who wants to see their work ship, make an impact, and solve real world problems., * 5+ years of experience in professional software development or software quality engineering.
 * Proven, professional experience building and utilizing test automation tools and frameworks.
 * Proficiency with languages such as C# and/or TypeScript.
 * Experience testing REST APIs and using tools like Postman or equivalent automation frameworks.
 * Experience with source control and modern CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions).
 * Comfortable working with relational databases such as SQL Server.
 * Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work as a core member of an Agile software development team.
 * Solid understanding of modern software engineering principles and best practices.
 * Experience working in a SaaS company or small, fast-paced development team.
 * Familiarity with cloud services (Azure App Services, Azure SQL, Azure Functions).
 * Experience bringing QA practices to legacy or established codebases.

## Description

* Enable the QA modernization journey. Partner with software engineers, other quality engineers, and product managers to assess where the application stands today and chart a practical path toward modern, sustainable quality practices without over-engineering the solution.
 * Balance manual and automated testing. Apply targeted manual testing where it delivers the most insight while systematically expanding automated coverage over time. Know when each approach is the right tool for the job.
 * Design, develop, and maintain automated test suites for our SaaS products using Playwright, C# and TypeScript, including end-to-end (E2E), integration, and API tests.
 * Build test tools, frameworks, and utilities that improve coverage, accelerate execution, and make the whole team more effective.
 * Leverage AI tools as a force multiplier, not a shortcut. Use AI thoughtfully to expand test coverage, accelerate test creation and maintenance, and surface insights.
 * Participate in code reviews, pair programming, and agile events as a core member of the team.
 * Help define and evolve testing strategies and best practices across the team as the codebase and product mature.
 * Follow DevSecOps best practices for CI/CD and contribute to deployment automation.
 * Continuously learn and grow technically, collaboratively, and in how you think about quality.
