Quality Assurance Engineers (Automation)

QA Engineer (SaaS)

Overview

We are seeking a hands-on QA Engineer who takes clear ownership of product quality in a modern SaaS environment. This role is embedded directly in the SDLC, partnering closely with Product, Engineering, and DevOps to ensure releases are stable, predictable, and audit-ready. This is not a checkbox QA role; success requires deep curiosity about how systems fail, discipline in proving they work, and the ability to communicate risk clearly.

Key Responsibilities

- Design, execute, and maintain positive, negative, and full regression test suites

- Build and manage large-scale synthetic test data that mirrors production scenarios

- Perform functional, integration, API, performance, and baseline security testing

- Leverage AI-powered QA tools to improve coverage and reduce test maintenance

- Validate quality across the full SDLC, including pre-release and post-deployment checks

- Partner with Product and Engineering to identify risk early and prevent production defects

- Contribute to QA standards, tooling decisions, and continuous improvement initiatives

Test Automation & Tooling

- Support and extend automated test suites using Selenium, Cypress, or Playwright

- Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, etc.)

- Use AI-driven testing platforms for test generation, self-healing automation, and analytics

- Balance automation with strong manual and exploratory testing practices

Required Experience

- 3–5+ years of hands-on QA experience in production SaaS environments

- Demonstrated expertise in positive, negative, and regression testing methodologies

- Proven experience creating and managing synthetic test data at scale

- Experience testing APIs, integrations, and multi-step workflows

- Comfortable working in fast-paced, continuous delivery environments

Technical Skills

- Manual and exploratory testing expertise

- Web-based SaaS application testing

- API testing (Postman, REST-based services)

- Familiarity with performance testing tools (JMeter, Locust, or similar)

- Understanding of SaaS quality concerns: multi-tenancy, backward compatibility, scalability

- Working knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and Agile delivery models

Preferred Qualifications

- Experience contributing to or improving QA frameworks and standards

- Exposure to cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP)

- Strong written communication for defect reporting and release sign-off

- Mentorship or leadership experience within QA teams
