Test Professional

Job Summary

The Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) is responsible for ensuring the quality, reliability, and performance of Yunex Traffic software products and intelligent transportation solutions through the planning, development, execution, and documentation of testing activities. This role partners closely with Product Management, Software Development, Systems Engineering, and Project Management teams to verify requirements, develop test strategies, identify defects, and support continuous improvement throughout the product development lifecycle.

The SDET analyzes requirements, develops and executes manual and automated test cases, validates software functionality, participates in design and architecture reviews, and supports the delivery of high-quality products that meet customer and regulatory requirements. The role contributes to product quality standards, development processes, and testing methodologies that support Yunex Traffic's traffic management, mobility, and intelligent transportation systems solutions.

About the work
Our SDETs write the automated tests that let the team ship with confidence, but automation alone isn’t enough — manual and exploratory testing still catch what scripts can’t, and knowing when to lean on each is part of the job.
Here are some real examples of the work:

Evolve and maintain our Playwright-based TypeScript automation framework, using AI-assisted development practices to improve productivity, quality, and maintainability.
Develop and maintain automated test suites for our microservice-based, cloud-native architecture, using AI to assist with test case design, implementation, refactoring, and maintenance.
Create and maintain automated UI and microservice API test frameworks.
Design, execute, and maintain manual test cases and exploratory testing activities, and identify which of them are good candidates for automation.
Turn test results into automated reports and quality insights that development teams and management stakeholders can act on.
Evolve and maintain our GitLab CI/CD pipelines for automated smoke and regression testing.
Own and continuously improve the QA process so we maintain full coverage as the product grows.

About you
We’re looking for a candidate with strong, hands-on experience developing automated tests for single-page browser applications - designing UI, end-to-end, integration, and regression tests with Playwright, and building automated API test cases with tools such as Postman or REST-assured. You’re comfortable automating test cases in TypeScript, JavaScript, or Python, and you’ve worked within agile testing practices, including TDD/BDD, with automated tests wired into CI/CD pipelines such as GitHub, GitLab, or Jenkins.

You know how to evaluate test coverage and results, define new test cases to close the gaps, and produce quality reports people actually use. You’re well-versed in test strategy, test stages, and standards spanning integration, regression, UI, and component testing.

It’s a plus if you’ve used AI-assisted engineering tools to develop, maintain, review, or improve automated test frameworks and test cases - this role leans on that kind of practice regularly.

A great opportunity if you are looking for your second or third position since graduation.
