Automation Engineer

Are you passionate about quality, automation, and building tools that empower engineering teams? We’re looking for an Automation Engineer to join us — someone who can balance deep test automation expertise with hands-on manual QA and occasional frontend development using AI-assisted tools.

What You’ll Be Working On:

Test Automation (50–60%)

  • Build and maintain scalable automated test suites using Cypress and Playwright
  • Own regression, smoke, and integration automation across multiple web apps
  • Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines
  • Improve reliability by debugging and eliminating flaky tests
  • Champion best practices in testing across the engineering team

Manual Testing (20–30%)

  • Execute structured/manual testing for Microsoft Dynamics 365 and related business applications
  • Perform exploratory, UAT, and regression testing
  • Collaborate with business stakeholders to validate workflows
  • Log defects with clear steps, expectations, and evidence
  • Identify opportunities to automate recurring manual tests

Frontend Development & AI Tooling (20%)

  • Use Cursor and other AI coding assistants to contribute frontend features
  • Write clean React/TypeScript code with testability in mind
  • Configure and optimise AI tools, MCP servers, and integrations
  • Share AI tooling knowledge to help the team move faster

What We’re Looking For:

Must-Haves

  • 3+ years in QA Automation or SDET roles
  • Strong experience with Cypress or Playwright
  • Manual testing experience with enterprise apps (ideally D365)
  • Solid JavaScript/TypeScript test coding skills
  • CI/CD pipeline experience
  • Excellent debugging and problem‐solving ability

Nice-to-Haves

  • Experience with D365 modules (Sales, Customer Service, Finance, etc.)
  • Power Platform familiarity
  • AI tooling experience (Cursor, Copilot, MCP servers)
  • Accessibility testing knowledge
  • React/TypeScript frontend experience
  • Visual regression or performance testing tools

Our Tech Stack

  • Testing: Cypress, Playwright, Jest
  • Enterprise: Microsoft D365, Power Platform
  • Frontend: React, TypeScript, Next.js
  • AI Dev: Cursor, MCP, GitHub Copilot
  • DevOps: GitHub Actions, Docker, AWS/Vercel

Who Will Thrive Here

You’re detail‐oriented yet pragmatic. You enjoy diving into complex systems like D365, spotting issues scripted tests can’t catch, and continuously improving your own toolset. You’re curious, proactive, and enjoy blending automation, manual testing, and AI‐assisted development.
