Sr. QA Automation Engineer

Senior QA Engineer

Veritone is seeking a Senior QA Engineer to join our engineering organization and help drive quality across our product suite. You'll be a technically strong individual contributor who writes reliable automation code, collaborates closely with Product and Engineering and takes ownership of test coverage for complex features and services. At the Senior level, you'll play a key role in maturing our test automation practices and raising the quality bar across your team.

What You'll Do

• Build and maintain end-to-end test automation frameworks and test suites using Cypress or comparable tools
• Own test coverage for assigned features and regression suites across web, API and integration layers
• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, etc.) alongside engineering partners
• Follow and contribute to QA standards, best practices and coverage criteria established by the team
• Participate in risk-based test planning and prioritization for multi-service features and releases
• Collaborate with developers through code reviews and pairing to promote testability and quality
• Champion quality in sprint planning and design discussions — helping shift testing earlier in the cycle
• Identify gaps in tooling or processes and propose improvements within your team's scope

What You'll Need

• 3–5 years of QA engineering experience with a strong automation focus
• Hands-on experience with Cypress, Playwright or a comparable modern test automation framework
• Proficiency in at least one programming language — JavaScript/TypeScript strongly preferred
• Working knowledge of REST API testing using tools such as Postman
• Experience running automated test suites in CI/CD environments
• Solid understanding of testing methodologies: unit, integration, end-to-end, regression and exploratory testing
• Good debugging skills and ability to trace failures across web and API layers

Bonus Points If

• Experience with enterprise SaaS or AI/ML-powered products
• Familiarity with performance/load testing tools such as k6 or JMeter
• Exposure to cloud infrastructure or microservices architectures (AWS, GCP, Kubernetes)
• Experience in regulated or public-sector environments (gov-tech, law enforcement, compliance-heavy verticals)
