Are you passionate about solving roadblocks & challenges faced by MSMEs in India?
MSMEs contribute significantly to India’s total GDP. 90% of India’s ~$1 Trillion Retail Market is controlled by Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).Which means ~$900B worth of commerce flows through these ~60M MSMEs in the form of shops/kiosks/homes, scattered all over the country. We at Khatabook, have a vision to empower MSMEs and help them increase their incomes. We have built a product that brings efficiency in MSME operations by providing them easy to use tools to manage their receivables, inventory and billing which creates transparency in their cash flow. Within the Khatabook platform, we have also enabled the facility to take loans for their short term working capital needs for select Khatabook users that are displaying good credit behavior. Our app has been downloaded over 100 Million times with a monthly active user base of 8 Million+ which are adding 220 Million+ transactions with a transaction value of $18 Billion.
Why work with us ?
People are our biggest asset! At Khatabook, every one of us is a dynamic superstar. We have carefully bred an ecosystem which hires nothing but incredibly and exceptionally talented people who can dream, collaborate, experiment, and break new ground. We’re a strong team that looks out for each other.
Your role :
As an SDET II, you will be responsible for building the test infrastructure, automation harnesses and engineering workflows that allow our teams — and AI coding agents — to safely understand, modify, test and ship code.
This is not a manual QA role. This is an engineering-heavy SDET role focused on test automation, system reliability, developer productivity and AI-agent readiness.
You will work closely with SDEs, engineering leads and platform teams to make our codebase more testable, observable and agent-friendly. You will design harnesses that allow AI agents and developers to run reliable checks, validate changes, reproduce bugs, generate tests and catch regressions before production.
What would you do at Khatabook ?
Build Test Harnesses for AI Agents – Design and build automated test harnesses that allow AI coding agents to safely make and validate code changes.
Own Automation Infrastructure – Build and maintain automation suites across backend services, APIs, web flows and critical business journeys.
Enable AI-First Engineering Workflows – Work with tools like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Codex or similar AI coding agents to improve engineering velocity.
Developer Productivity – Build internal tools that reduce developer toil around testing, debugging and release validation.
What are we looking for ?
4+ years of hands-on experience as an SDET, automation engineer, test infrastructure engineer or software engineer with strong testing ownership.
Strong programming ability in at least one backend language such as Java, Kotlin, TypeScript, JavaScript, Python or Go.
Experience testing REST APIs, backend services, databases and distributed systems.
Hands-on experience with automation tools such as Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, REST Assured, Postman/Newman, Jest, JUnit, TestNG or similar.
Good understanding of test design: unit tests, integration tests, contract tests, API tests, end-to-end tests, mocks, fixtures and test data management.
High ownership and bias for execution — you should be comfortable taking an ambiguous quality problem and converting it into working infrastructure.
Good written and verbal communication.
Willingness to adopt AI-powered engineering tools and apply them pragmatically to improve test coverage, development speed and release confidence.
