The Role:
We are looking for a Senior QA Automation Engineer to join one of our high-growth client teams as the primary architect of their quality assurance strategy. In this role, you will move beyond manual validation to build robust, scalable automation frameworks that ensure software reliability at high velocity.
You will be responsible for the entire testing lifecycle—from defining test strategies and selecting the right tools to integrating automated suites into modern CI/CD pipelines. This is a role for a "Developer in Test" who is passionate about building invisible safety nets that empower development teams to ship code with total confidence.
What we are looking for:
- 5+ years of experience in test automation, with deep expertise in modern frameworks like Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium.
- Strong ability to write clean, maintainable test code in TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, or Java.
- Proven track record of building and scaling automation frameworks from scratch (Page Object Model, Screenplay Pattern, etc.).
- Extensive experience testing RESTful and GraphQL APIs using tools like Postman, SuperTest, or RestAssured.
- Hands-on experience integrating automated tests into pipelines using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins.
- Experience with mobile automation using Appium or Maestro is a significant advantage.
- Familiarity with performance testing tools like k6 or JMeter to identify system bottlenecks.
Nice-to-Have:
- Knowledge of Docker for containerized testing environments.
- Experience with Visual Regression testing tools (Percy, Applitools).
- Familiarity with Cloud Testing platforms (BrowserStack, Sauce Labs, AWS Device Farm).
- Background in Security Testing (OWASP principles).
Responsibilities:
- Define the overall automation roadmap and select the appropriate tools to match the client's technical stack.
- Write, maintain, and optimize complex end-to-end (E2E) integration and regression test suites.
- Partner with Developers and Product Managers to define "Definition of Done" and ensure testability is considered during the design phase.
- Identify, document, and track software defects, working closely with the dev team to ensure rapid resolution.
- Act as the "Quality Evangelist" within the team, conducting code reviews for test scripts and sharing best practices in automated testing.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Proxify. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
