Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET)

This hands-on quality engineering position combines Playwright automation, API testing, SQL validation, exploratory testing, and targeted manual testing. Candidates must be capable of writing maintainable TypeScript and contributing to automation architecture-not simply recording or modifying test scripts. Our primary tools include Playwright with TypeScript, GitHub Copilot, Jenkins, Bitbucket, and Oracle.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain UI and API automated tests using Playwright and TypeScript.

• Expand the existing Playwright framework and establish reusable fixtures, API clients, utilities, and coding standards.

• Create automated coverage for Angular applications and Java-based REST APIs.

• Integrate and execute automated tests through Jenkins.

• Investigate failures using Playwright traces, application logs, network activity, API responses, and SQL.

• Validate application processing and data using Oracle SQL.

• Perform exploratory, functional, integration, regression, and risk-based manual testing.

• Review requirements and acceptance criteria for gaps, edge cases, risks, and testability.

• Collaborate with developers, product owners, and testers throughout story development.

• Participate in code reviews and improve the reliability and maintainability of the automation suite.

• Identify flaky, redundant, slow, or low-value tests and address their underlying causes.

AI-Assisted Quality Engineering

SDETs are expected to use GitHub Copilot and other approved AI capabilities in their daily work to improve speed, coverage, and effectiveness. This includes:

• Generating and refining Playwright TypeScript tests for UI and API scenarios.

• Identifying missing scenarios, edge cases, negative paths, and requirement gaps.

• Accelerating test data creation, SQL queries, API requests, and reusable automation components.

• Analyzing failures, logs, stack traces, and Playwright traces.

• Refactoring repetitive, flaky, or difficult-to-maintain automation code.

• Creating technical documentation, test summaries, and defect details.

• Understanding unfamiliar application code and identifying areas of testing risk.

• Sharing effective AI-assisted testing practices with other team members.

Required Qualifications

• Hands-on experience using Playwright with TypeScript for UI and API automation.

• Strong TypeScript programming fundamentals.

• Experience designing maintainable automation-not simply creating test scripts.

• Experience testing modern web applications, preferably Angular.

• Experience testing Java-based REST APIs.

• Strong understanding of REST, JSON, authentication, response validation, and negative API testing.

• SQL experience for backend data validation, preferably with Oracle.

• Experience executing automated tests through Jenkins or another CI/CD platform.

• Experience with Git-based source control and collaborative development workflows.

• Ability to diagnose failures across the UI, API, database, test code, test data, and environment layers.

• Experience with exploratory and manual testing in addition to automation.

• Ability to work independently and communicate defects and quality risks clearly.
