Role description
Within the x-one program, we are shifting our quality approach towards an embedded, highly automated engineering model. We are looking for an experienced, hands-on external Senior Test Automation Engineer who can bridge the gap between traditional QA and core software engineering.
This is a pure execution (hands-on) contract role for a technical heavyweight. You love writing test-code, diving deep into technical architectures, and setting up scalable automation ecosystems. While you remain fully focused on implementation and delivery, you will also play a pivotal role in supporting, training, and enabling less experienced QA colleagues to mature their automated testing capabilities.
Framework Architecture & Setup: Work on design, implementation, and scaling of robust, reusable test automation frameworks from the ground up.
Advanced API & Integration Testing: Build and maintain automated end-to-end API test suites to validate data flows across our global domain services and local integration layers.
Isolate Dependencies: Strategically design and implement mocks and stubs to bypass environment constraints, ensuring test pipelines run quickly and reliably without blocking dependencies.
CI/CD Integration: Embed automated test execution seamlessly into the broader DevOps build and deployment pipelines for continuous, unattended regression testing.
Hands-on Testing & Strategy: Design and execute complex functional, integration, and regression test scenarios based on risk assessments and architecture definitions.
Team Support & Enablement: Partner closely with squad QA testers, providing hands-on coding support, reviewing automated components, and training them to become self-sustainable.
Reporting line: You will report directly to the Test Manager, working in close alignment with the Lead Automation Architect.
Squad & Platform Teams: You will embed with cross-functional squads containing Business Analysts, Developers, and QA Testers to accelerate automated feature testing.
DevOps & Middleware: Collaborate with the platform teams (GIS / Apigee / Boomi) to coordinate environment readiness, configuration testing, and pipeline execution.
Must-have Requirements:
Testing Mastery: Extensive hands-on experience in software quality assurance in a Salesforce environment, defining multi-level test approaches, and executing functional and regression activities in complex enterprise environments.
Automation Expertise: A proven track record in end-to-end test automation engineering, optimizing regression tests, and driving continuous testing practices.
Strong Programming Skills: Expert-level proficiency in one or more modern programming languages (e.g., writing modular, maintainable automation code, test libraries and utilities).
Should-have Requirements
Java Proficiency: Deep experience with Java for test development and framework building.
Framework Construction: Demonstrated experience building scalable automation frameworks from scratch rather than just maintaining existing scripts.
API & Microservice Savvy: Deep experience with automated testing of REST APIs and navigating a microservices/domain services architecture (using libraries such as RestAssured or similar).
Pipeline Engineering: Practical experience integrating automated suites into CI/CD pipelines for scheduled or trigger-based test execution.
Advanced Coding Concepts: Familiarity with dependency injection frameworks (e.g., Spring) and mock/stub development platforms (e.g., WireMock, Mockito) to effectively virtualize missing components.
Languages: Fluent at writing and speaking in English (essential for navigating local integrations and global organizational alignment).
The Senior Automation Factor: You feel like a software developer in test systems. You understand application architecture. When code lands, your tests trigger automatically in the pipeline. You bring the software engineering mindset directly into QA, raising the technical bar for the entire project team.
