Ihre Aufgaben

We're building an AI-powered HR tech platform with multiple microservices, a modern frontend, and complex backend integrations. Quality isn't an afterthought - we build it into the development process. You'll help us do that systematically.

• Build and maintain our E2E test suite (Playwright) across multiple services
• API and contract testing between our microservices (TypeScript, Python)
• Define and implement test strategies: unit, integration, E2E - embedded in CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions)
• Quality assurance for AI-powered features: automated pipelines, structured outputs, data-driven components
• Collaborate closely with development teams so tests are created early - not as an afterthought
• Build test reporting and regression monitoring

• 3+ years of experience in test automation (not primarily manual testing)
• Strong knowledge of Playwright or comparable E2E frameworks
• Experience with API testing and validation logic
• Basic understanding of TypeScript or Python - you read code, even if you don't write it daily
• Familiarity with CI/CD and GitHub Actions
• Structured, self-directed working style

Nice to have

• Experience with AI/ML products and testing non-deterministic outputs
• Performance testing
• Experience in a product team (not just outsourcing/agency context)
