- Start Date: Interview Types
- Skills Hands-on experience .. Visa Types Green Card, US Citiz..
Location: Atlanta, GA 30305 or Princeton, NJ
Duration: 6 Months Contract Job Description:
This role sits at the intersection of product understanding, test design, and software engineering, working closely with developers, DevOps, and product managers on a mission-critical cybersecurity SaaS platform.
The ideal candidate is not a "button-clicker," but someone who can read specifications, reason about system behavior, anticipate edge cases, build reliable automation, and make quality a first-class concern from day one of every sprint. What You Will Do
- Design, build, and maintain structured test cases derived from product specifications, acceptance criteria, and technical designs.
- Translate product requirements and implementation logic into meaningful test coverage, including edge cases, state transitions, and negative scenarios.
- Architect, develop, and maintain scalable, reusable automated test suites with a strong focus on API, integration, and end-to-end testing using Playwright.
- Actively analyze defects:
- Reproduce issues reliably
- Investigate root causes across UI, API, and backend layers
- Provide actionable insights to developers
- Ensure test work is visible and traceable within the development lifecycle by linking test cases, execution results, and defects to requirements, development tasks, and releases.
- Participate in refinement, grooming, and release discussions to ensure quality is built in early.
- Maintain accurate and up-to-date test documentation and execution results in TestRail and Playwright.
Core Skills & Mindset
- Min 8 years of experience in software quality engineering, with a clear shift toward automation and test engineering.
- Strong analytical and systems-thinking skills.
- Ability to craft test cases from specifications.
- Comfortable reasoning about:
- Data flows
- State transitions
- Business rules
- Failure modes
- Confidence in debugging and issue analysis, including reading logs, inspecting API responses, and isolating root causes.
- Clear communicator who can explain why something fails, not just that it fails.
- Hands-on experience building and maintaining automation frameworks with Playwright (strongly preferred).
- Proficiency in API and integration testing (Postman, Rest-Assured, or similar).
- Solid programming skills in JavaScript (strongly preferred).
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines and test execution orchestration (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD).
- Understanding of middle-tier testing: APIs interacting directly with databases and external services.
- Experience working in Agile/Scrum teams.
- Comfortable working closely with:
- Developers
- Product managers
- DevOps
- Values quality as a shared team responsibility, not a final gate.
