You'll work closely with AI Integration engineers and software developers to build robust testing strategies that handle the unique challenges of AI systems, including model validation, data quality, and non-deterministic outputs.

Key Responsibilities

Test Automation Development

• Design, develop, and maintain automated test frameworks using Python and modern testing tools
• Build end-to-end test suites for APIs, data pipelines, and AI model/MCP endpoints
• Implement continuous testing practices integrated with CI/CD pipelines
• Create reusable test libraries and utilities to accelerate testing across projects

AI-Assisted Testing

• Leverage AI tools (like GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, or dedicated test generation tools) to accelerate test case creation and code reviews
• Explore and implement AI-powered testing solutions for test data generation, visual testing, and anomaly detection
• Experiment with automated test scenario generation using LLMs
• Use AI tools for log analysis and defect pattern recognition

AI-Specific Testing

• Develop testing strategies for LLMs including performance, accuracy, and bias detection
• Test data quality, feature engineering pipelines, and model training workflows
• Validate model output and monitor for model drift in production
• Create test datasets that cover edge cases and ensure model robustness

Quality Strategy & Collaboration

• Define and implement QA best practices and quality metrics for AI products
• Collaborate with developers to identify testability requirements early in the development cycle
• Perform code reviews focused on test coverage and quality
• Document test strategies, test cases, and quality reports

Performance & Security Testing

• Conduct load and performance testing for AI inference endpoints
• Identify bottlenecks in data processing and model serving infrastructure
• Participate in security testing activities focusing on data privacy and model security

Required Qualifications

Education & Experience

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field
• 3-5 years of experience in software quality assurance and test automation
• Proven experience building and maintaining automation frameworks from scratch
• Experience testing cloud-based applications and APIs
• Experience testing machine learning models, agentic data flows and data-intensive applications

Technical Skills

• Strong proficiency in Python for test automation
• Hands-on experience with testing frameworks: pytest, unittest, Selenium, or similar
• Experience with API testing tools: Postman, REST Assured, or Python requests
• Knowledge of CI/CD tools: GitLab CI, GitHub Actions
• Familiarity with version control systems (Git)
• Understanding of SQL and database testing (incl. Data Lake architectures)
• Experience with containerization (Docker) and orchestration tools
• Experience with AI-powered testing tools or test generation platforms
• Experience with cloud platforms: AWS, Azure, or GCP
• Understanding of microservices architecture and distributed systems
• Experience with workflow orchestration tools (Airflow, Temporal, Prefect, n8n)
• Experience mentoring junior QA engineers

What You'll Work With:

Languages: Python, SQL, JavaScript/TypeScript, YAML
Data Tools: Airflow, dbt, Spark, Polars, pyArrow
APIs & Integration: FastAPI, GraphQL, Kafka, Redis, Javascript/Typescript, WASM
