Quality Assurance Automation Engineer

Help with and implement our QA Architectural Artifacts • All testing systems, their feedback loops and mechanisms, logging, reporting and interconnectivity • Process artifacts that detail how, where and why quality controls and test mechanisms exist across the entire SDLC • Implementation level architecture for good, scalable and maintainable testing strategies across disparate use cases (Web, Mobile, Data Engineering, AI etc) • Contribute to and maintain our org wide Architecture Decision Records Support the delivery and maintenance of our QA Engineering Policies, Procedures and Standards • CI/CD practices, environment configuration, feedback loops etc • Backend tooling, frameworks, their application, quality gating and measurement • Technology stack/services consultancy and selection in accordance with technical and quality requirements (scalability, performance, security, compliance) Support our QA Operational Practices • Drive eCommerce automation projects • Integration, Acceptance, Performance, Security level testing platforms • Govern, train and evangelize good tests versus bad tests at each testing level Drive best in class QA strategies • Our customers need to love what we do for them • Work across disciplines and with other Principal Engineers to evangelize for the needs of the Quality Automation discipline • Knowledge transfer, training, mentoring of QA practices across the engineering org Skills • Extensive and applied knowledge across a range of automated testing tools and frameworks e.g. Junit, Jest, Mocha, Playwright, Appium, WebDriver.IO, Selenium, JMeter, Chrome Lighthouse, BrowserStack etc) • An advocate and enabler of strong quality controls (unit, integration, acceptance testing frameworks and methodologies) using industry leading tooling (Junit, SonarCloud, Jmeter, Webdriver.io etc) • Applied Knowledge of SAP offerings (S/4, Commerce Cloud (Hybris), etc) • An understanding of a range of programming languages and associated frameworks e.g. Java, JavaScript, Typescript, HTML, CSS, SpringBoot, ReactJS, NextJS, TailwindCSS etc • Expert level knowledge of testing strategy, test case definition, test planning and execution including test case tracking tools like Zephyr • Ability to distill, author and drive test automation strategies using a number of best-in-class platforms and frameworks to drive down the feedback loop and increase quality reporting and control gates • Proven Experience of CI/CD processes and building quality controls into each step of the SDLC – a “shift left” evangelist • A driver of ITSM (ITIL v4) controls and processes to drive greater rigor into our change, knowledge, incident, problem and operational processes • Containerization technologies: Docker/ContainerD, Kubernetes (K8S, K3S), container registries and artifact tools (e.g.

Artifactory, GCR, ACR, ECR) • Understanding of REST, GraphQL and event-driven architecture principles and best practices and tooling (e.g. Pub/Sub, Kafka etc) • Ability to understand and empathize with our customers, to drive testing strategies aligned to their needs/purposes/concerns • Inherent drive to move beyond functional testing into non-functional areas to ensure solution appropriateness and ability to meet desired outcomes across a number of critical dimensions and areas of concern • Knowledge of diagramming tools and methodologies (e.g. Miro, Diagrams.net, Figjam, Mermaid.JS etc) • Strong communication and presentation skills • Educated to Degree level in Computer Science or equivalent • 8+ years of relevant industry experience
