Senior Software Development Engineer – Test

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Brazil.

📋 Description

• Design and develop a comprehensive test automation framework from scratch for iOS, Android, and Web platforms.

• Take charge of generating regression test cases by examining manual test suites, user flows, and product specifications.

• Establish procedures for maintaining up-to-date regression coverage as the product develops.

• Create and sustain UI, API, and integration test suites.

• Design and incorporate automated test suites into CI/CD pipelines like Buildkite and GitHub Actions.

• Set up strategies for test data management, environment provisioning, and reporting.

• Manage the triage and reduction of test flakiness, and establish reliability standards.

• Define and communicate quality metrics such as coverage, pass rate, flake rate, and execution time.

• Collaborate with product and engineering leaders to translate feature specifications and acceptance criteria into automated test suites.

• Impact testability during the design of products and features.

• Guide engineers and establish technical direction on best practices for testability.

• Assess and enhance tooling and framework architecture as mobile operating systems and web frameworks evolve.

• Make decisions on whether to build or buy testing tools and infrastructure.

⛳️ Requirements

• 6+ years of experience as an SDET, QA Automation Engineer, or Software Engineer with a robust focus on testing, including experience managing automation architecture from start to finish.

• Proven success in building test automation frameworks from the ground up for mobile (iOS and/or Android) and web applications, ideally across multiple companies or significant initiatives.

• Extensive hands-on experience with mobile automation tools such as Maestro, XCUITest, Espresso, or equivalent.

• Extensive hands-on experience with web automation tools like Playwright, Cypress, Selenium/WebDriver, or equivalent.

• Strong programming abilities in at least one of the following: TypeScript/JavaScript, Java, Kotlin, Swift, or Python.

• Experience designing and integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines, along with troubleshooting pipeline-level flakiness and build/test failures.

• Solid understanding of test design techniques (equivalence partitioning, boundary analysis, risk-based test prioritization) and the ability to apply them at scale.

• Experience with API testing (REST, contract testing) as part of comprehensive end-to-end coverage.

• Proficient with version control (Git) and collaborative development workflows (PR review, branching strategies).

• Proven capability to mentor engineers and influence testing practices beyond individual contributions.

• Comfortable making practical architectural trade-offs and iterating rather than waiting for a perfect specification.

• Excellent communication skills for reporting quality risks and automation gaps to engineers and leadership stakeholders.

• Experience with cross-platform test strategies, shared test logic, or page-object patterns across iOS/Android/Web is a plus.

• Familiarity with performance and accessibility testing is a plus.

• Experience using Appium for cross-platform mobile UI automation is a plus.

• Background in scaling test automation within a growth-stage or fast-paced product organization is a plus.

• Experience with cloud device farms such as BrowserStack, Sauce Labs, or Firebase Test Lab is a plus.

• Prior experience as a technical lead or automation architect on a QE team is a plus.

🏝️ Benefits

• Competitive base salary.

• Annual leave plus public holidays.

• Support for professional development and learning opportunities.

• International exposure through collaboration with global teams and clients.

• A cooperative, people-first culture within a growing global organization.
