Full Description
AgileEngine is an Inc. 5000 company that creates award-winning software for Fortune 500 brands and trailblazing startups across 17+ industries. We rank among the leaders in areas like application development and AI/ML, and our people-first culture has earned us multiple Best Place to Work awards.
WHY JOIN US If you're looking for a place to grow, make an impact, and work with people who care, we'd love to meet you!
ABOUT THE ROLE We are looking for a Senior Quality Engineer to drive quality throughout the software development lifecycle by partnering with Product Managers, Software Engineers, and Architects to embed quality from the start rather than serve as a gatekeeper at release. You will design and maintain automated tests across unit, API, integration, and UI layers using tools like Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium, champion a right-sized test pyramid strategy, and leverage AI-powered tools for test generation, defect analysis, and coverage optimization. The role requires 4+ years of quality engineering experience with hands-on AI-assisted testing tool experience.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
-
Partner closely with Product Managers, Software Engineers, and Architects to understand product functionality, technical design, customer workflows, and acceptance criteria, ensuring quality is built into every stage of SDLC.
-
Define and execute a product quality strategy that aligns with business priorities, engineering practices, and release objectives.
-
Design, develop, and maintain automated tests across unit, API, integration, and UI layers, applying the appropriate level of testing based on product risk and architecture.
-
Champion the concept of a right-sized test pyramid by driving quality through the most effective mix of unit, service, integration, and end-to-end tests rather than relying heavily on UI automation.
-
Collaborate with development teams to understand code changes, code coverage, and application architecture to determine where automated tests provide the greatest value.
-
Build and maintain scalable, resilient automation frameworks that integrate seamlessly into CI/CD pipelines to enable continuous testing and rapid feedback.
-
Promote shift-left quality practices by participating in backlog refinement, sprint planning, design discussions, and code reviews to identify quality risks early.
-
Leverage AI-powered tools throughout the software development and testing lifecycle, including test case generation, automation development, defect analysis, risk identification, and coverage optimization, while validating AI-generated outputs for accuracy and effectiveness.
-
Identify opportunities to reduce manual effort through intelligent automation and process optimization while improving product reliability.
-
Partner with engineering teams to investigate defects, perform root cause analysis, and implement preventative quality improvements.
MUST HAVES
-
4+ years of experience in software testing, quality engineering, or automation roles.
-
Proficiency with automation tools and frameworks (e.g., Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, REST-assured, Postman, or similar).
-
Hands-on experience with mobile test automation (iOS and/or Android).
-
Ability to read, write, or debug test code or scripts (e.g., Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, C#).
-
Understanding of REST APIs and service-based architectures.
-
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and continuous-testing concepts.
-
Hands-on experience with AI-assisted testing tools and practices required.
-
Upper-Intermediate English level.
NICE TO HAVES

Passionate about writing clean, modern, maintainable, & highly-performant code.
-
Pro-active ability and a self-starter attitude to troubleshoot and solve problems.
-
Experience working in an Agile environment leveraging remote communication tools.
-
Strong communication skills with excellent interpersonal effectiveness.
