Your responsibilities

• Design and implement automated tests for APIs, integration processes, and data flows.
• Develop and maintain existing test automation frameworks.
• Create regression tests and integrate them with CI/CD processes.
• Support the implementation of the “Automation First” approach.
• Cooperate with developers, analysts, Product Owners, and other MDM ART teams.
• Support automation of both new features and existing products.
• Analyse test results and prepare test evidence.
• Use AI and GitHub Copilot to improve test automation efficiency.
• Mentor less experienced team members in the area of test automation.

Our requirements

• 6+ years of proven experience in automated software testing, preferably in complex enterprise environments.
• Strong understanding of QA methodology, including test planning, test design, test execution, defect management, regression testing, and continuous quality improvement.
• Good experience in test automation, including designing, developing, and maintaining automated test scripts and frameworks.
• Hands-on experience in test automation development using Java 17+, with strong knowledge of object-oriented programming, Clean Code principles, and POJO-based design patterns for building readable and maintainable test code.
• Strong practical experience with the core Java API testing stack: RESTAssured for HTTP-level testing, JUnit 5 for test lifecycle management and parameterization, and Lombok to reduce boilerplate in model and builder classes.
• Solid understanding of REST architecture (resources, HTTP methods, status codes, JSON/XML payloads) and SOAP/WSDL contracts, with the ability to design tests that validate both protocol types thoroughly.
• Good hands-on experience in API testing, especially for REST and SOAP APIs, integration flows, backend services, and data distribution processes.
• Experience with test reporting tools, especially Allure, including attaching request/response evidence, categorizing failures, and producing clear test execution reports for stakeholders.
• Good experience in writing SQL queries and performing database testing, including data validation and verification of backend processes.
• Experience in testing integration solutions, including asynchronous flows, Kafka-based integrations, data pipelines, and event-driven architecture.
• Practical experience with test management and defect tracking tools, especially qTest and Jira.
• Strong Git skills, including branching strategies (e.g., GitFlow, trunk-based development), pull request workflows, code review practices, and conflict resolution — critical for effective collaboration in a team environment.
• Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, particularly Jenkins and/or Bamboo, including configuring and maintaining automated test execution jobs, pipeline stages, and test result publication.
• Knowledge and hands-on experience in UI testing in Selenium/Playwright (NICE TO HAVE).
• Good understanding of Agile ways of working, including Scrum ceremonies, sprint planning, backlog refinement, sprint reviews, retrospectives, and collaboration with Product Owners, developers, analysts, and other QA specialists.
• Excellent communication skills in English, with the ability to clearly explain testing scope, risks, defects, automation progress, and quality-related recommendations.
• Ability to work in a cross-functional team, keeping business value, delivery quality, and continuous improvement in mind.
• A proactive mindset and willingness to contribute to the team’s Automation First approach.
• Experience in preparing and maintaining test evidence, automation reporting, and test coverage documentation.
• Ability to mentor or support less experienced team members in test automation practices.
