Job Description :

Hands-on QA Engineer covering both functional testing and automation, with ownership of the AWS-hosted regression framework and process — engineering fixes at framework and infrastructure level, not just running tests and analysing results.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and execute functional test cases; validate data directly via SQL.
  • Build, extend and refactor the core automation framework (UI, API and service layers).
  • Own the AWS automation framework — permanently fix cloud failure modes (container restarts, load balancer timeouts, DB connectivity and connection-pool exhaustion, S3/SQS integration, IAM/credential expiry, config drift) rather than re-running or masking them.
  • Harden environment provisioning, seeding, teardown and secrets management so runs start from a known-good baseline.
  • Implement resilience in the framework — retry with backoff, health checks and readiness gates, graceful handling of transient cloud failures.
  • Improve the end-to-end AWS regression process — reduce runtime via parallelisation and sharding, drive down flaky tests against measurable targets, and add failure trend dashboards and automatic artefact capture.
  • Analyse logs and stack traces to isolate root cause; classify failures as product defect, script defect, test data, environment or timing.
  • Integrate and maintain suites in CI/CD; partner with DevOps and Development to clear infrastructure blockers and communicate risk.

Required Skills:

  • 8+ years QA across functional and automation.
  • Strong Java — able to write and debug framework code, not just scripts.
  • Selenium, Cucumber/BDD, solid SQL.
  • Proven experience debugging, fixing and improving automation frameworks in AWS (EC2/ECS, S3, SQS, RDS, CloudWatch, IAM).
  • Track record of measurably reducing regression runtime and flakiness.
  • Jenkins/CI-CD, Maven, Git.
  • Strong analytical mindset; able to work independently through intermittent, ambiguous failures.
