Software Test Engineer

Software Test Engineer

This role is ideal for a QA professional who enjoys combining exploratory testing with automation engineering to deliver reliable software experiences. You will help ensure product quality by designing test strategies, building automation frameworks, and identifying issues before they reach users. The position offers the opportunity to work across web and application projects while collaborating with globally distributed engineering teams. You will contribute to modern testing practices, including API validation, CI/CD integration, and quality improvements throughout the development lifecycle. The role also involves testing AI-powered features and adapting QA approaches for emerging technologies. This is an opportunity to grow within a remote-first environment where ownership, innovation, and continuous learning are highly valued.

Accountabilities:

As a Software Test Engineer, you will play a key role in ensuring software reliability by combining manual testing expertise with automation capabilities. You will collaborate closely with developers and cross-functional teams to identify defects, improve processes, and deliver high-quality products.

• Perform manual, exploratory, functional, and regression testing to identify issues that automated tests may not detect.
• Design and execute comprehensive test plans for web applications, software products, and APIs.
• Build, maintain, and improve automated test scripts using frameworks such as Playwright, Selenium, or Cypress.
• Develop automation solutions using Python or JavaScript/TypeScript.
• Conduct API testing using tools such as Postman and code-based testing approaches.
• Integrate automated testing workflows into CI/CD pipelines and collaborate with engineering teams through Git-based workflows.
• Create and maintain clear documentation for test cases, defects, QA processes, and quality standards.
• Evaluate AI-driven features and integrated AI systems through specialized testing approaches.
• Work closely with distributed engineering teams to identify issues early and support continuous product improvement.
• Contribute ideas and improvements to QA methodologies, tools, and best practices.

Requirements:

The ideal candidate is a quality-focused professional with strong experience across both manual and automated testing. You should be comfortable working independently, collaborating remotely, and adapting testing strategies for evolving technologies.

• 4+ years of professional experience in software quality assurance and testing.
• Strong hands-on experience with both manual testing and test automation practices.
• Proficiency in Python or JavaScript/TypeScript for developing and maintaining automation scripts.
• Experience with automation frameworks such as Playwright, Selenium, or Cypress.
• Ability to design and execute functional, regression, and API testing strategies.
• Experience using API testing tools such as Postman and similar solutions.
• Understanding of CI/CD pipelines, Git workflows, and modern software development practices.
• Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and documentation skills.
• Curiosity about AI technologies and willingness to test AI-powered applications and workflows.
• Excellent English communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively with global remote teams.

Benefits:

• Fully remote work environment with the flexibility to work from anywhere.
• Freedom to choose your preferred working hours and time zone.
• Opportunity to work on diverse, challenging software projects with modern technologies.
• Paid training and professional development opportunities to support career growth.
• Consistent workload with engaging and technically challenging assignments.
• Opportunity to collaborate with international teams across multiple countries.
• Performance-based recognition and annual pay increase opportunities.
• Flexible contractor model with monthly payments via wire transfer.
• Competitive compensation based on skills, experience, and contribution.
• Work in an environment that values innovation, ownership, and continuous improvement.
