Join our team as a Custom Software Engineer and contribute to building innovative software solutions. This role involves designing, coding, and enhancing system components using modern frameworks and agile practices. You'll deliver scalable, high-performance solutions tailored to specific business needs, playing a key part in our software development lifecycle.

As a Custom Software Engineer, your day-to-day activities will center on creating and executing automated test solutions to ensure top-tier software quality. You will focus on developing robust test automation frameworks, primarily using Selenium with Java, and validating application functionality through rigorous testing. This position offers the opportunity to work autonomously, influence automation strategy, and collaborate with diverse teams, all while employing Agile methodologies and cutting-edge tools.

Responsibilities

As a Custom Software Engineer, you will be expected to operate independently and become a subject matter expert, actively participating in team discussions and contributing solutions to complex problems. Your core responsibilities will include designing, developing, and maintaining automation scripts using Selenium with Java, and enhancing automation frameworks for better reusability and scalability. You will perform functional, regression, and end-to-end testing, analyze requirements for automation feasibility, and adhere to SDLC and STLC processes. Additionally, you'll create and manage test cases and scripts, track defects using standard tools like JIRA/Octane, and collaborate with developers and stakeholders for efficient issue resolution. Participation in Agile ceremonies and leveraging AI tools like Copilot to boost testing productivity are also key aspects of this role.

Qualifications

We are seeking a Custom Software Engineer with a strong foundation in Selenium automation using Java. Essential skills include a deep understanding of software testing concepts, SDLC, STLC, and experience with designing automation frameworks such as POM or Hybrid. Proficiency in defect management tools like JIRA/Octane and familiarity with Agile methodologies are crucial. The ability to work independently and manage tasks end-to-end is highly valued. Basic knowledge of Playwright and familiarity with test management tools like ALM Octane are advantageous. The role requires a minimum of 3 years of relevant experience in QA Automation Testing, with a preference for 5+ years, and a commitment to 15 years of full-time education. Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills are a must.
