Senior Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) | $120,000 - $135,000 + Bonus | Hybrid | Direct Hire

What Matters Most

  • Competitive salary of $120,000 - $135,000
  • 7.5% annual incentive bonus
  • Hybrid schedule (3 days onsite / 2 days remote) in Omaha, Nebraska
  • Direct Hire opportunity with a stable enterprise organization
  • Play a key role in advancing automation strategy across a modern Agile engineering team
  • Work with Playwright, JavaScript/TypeScript, APIs, Microservices, CI/CD, and AI-assisted development tools
  • Mentor fellow engineers while helping shape the future of Quality Engineering

Why You'll Love This Opportunity

This isn't a traditional QA Automation role.

Our client is seeking an engineer who is passionate about building high-quality software through modern automation, thoughtful engineering practices, and continuous improvement.

You'll work alongside software developers as an integral member of an Agile delivery team while designing scalable automation frameworks, improving CI/CD pipelines, mentoring teammates, and helping define the future direction of software quality.

If you're looking for an opportunity where your technical expertise is valued just as much as your testing experience, this is the role you've been waiting for.

Job Description

Our client, a financially strong enterprise organization, is seeking an experienced Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) to support a high-profile Agile product team responsible for customer-facing financial applications.

This position is ideal for an experienced automation engineer who enjoys writing code, solving technical challenges, improving automation frameworks, and collaborating closely with developers throughout the software development lifecycle.

Rather than simply executing automated test scripts, you'll help design and implement enterprise automation solutions while influencing quality engineering practices across the team.

Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and maintain enterprise automation frameworks
  • Build scalable UI, API, and integration automation solutions
  • Lead automation strategy and promote Quality Engineering best practices
  • Develop automated testing within CI/CD pipelines
  • Design comprehensive regression, integration, and system testing strategies
  • Create and execute both automated and manual test cases
  • Perform automation code reviews and peer reviews
  • Troubleshoot complex automation issues and improve framework reliability
  • Collaborate closely with software developers, Product Owners, and Agile teams
  • Mentor junior QA engineers and promote engineering best practices
  • Research and evaluate emerging testing technologies, automation tools, and AI-assisted development capabilities
  • Drive continuous improvement across quality engineering processes

Qualifications & Requirements

Required

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
  • 5+ years of hands-on UI and API automation experience
  • 5+ years of programming experience using JavaScript, TypeScript and/or Java
  • Strong expertise with Playwright
  • Experience developing automation frameworks
  • Experience testing REST APIs and microservices
  • Experience integrating automation into CI/CD pipelines
  • Strong understanding of Agile software development
  • Experience with GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket
  • Strong analytical, troubleshooting and problem-solving skills
  • Excellent communication and collaboration abilities

Preferred

Experience with:

  • Selenium
  • Cypress
  • Postman
  • Swagger
  • BrowserStack
  • Performance testing
  • Regression testing
  • Integration testing
  • Test-Driven Development (TDD)
  • Behavior-Driven Development (BDD)
  • AI-assisted software development tools such as GitHub Copilot
  • Financial services or other highly regulated environments

What Will Make You Successful

This opportunity is best suited for engineers who enjoy building automation—not simply executing it.

The ideal candidate will demonstrate:

  • Strong software engineering fundamentals
  • Ability to independently design and troubleshoot automation solutions
  • Passion for writing clean, maintainable automation code
  • Experience mentoring teammates and sharing technical knowledge
  • Strong understanding of APIs, microservices, and distributed applications
  • Ability to explain the reasoning behind technical decisions—not simply rely on generated code
  • Curiosity around emerging AI-assisted development and testing technologies
  • Commitment to improving software quality across the entire development lifecycle

Benefits & Perks

  • Competitive salary of $120,000 - $135,000
  • 7.5% annual incentive bonus
  • Flexible PTO program
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance
  • Paid Holidays
  • Professional development opportunities
  • Hybrid work environment
  • Long-term career growth
  • Collaborative Agile engineering culture

Your New Organization

You'll join an established enterprise technology organization committed to investing in modern engineering practices, automation, and continuous improvement. Quality Engineers are viewed as software engineers who partner closely with development teams to improve reliability, scalability, and delivery speed—not simply testers at the end of the development process.

You'll have the opportunity to influence automation strategy, mentor teammates, and help drive the organization's continued investment in Quality Engineering and AI-assisted software development.

Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the United States. Sponsorship is not available now or in the future. Third-party and C2C candidates cannot be considered.
