Responsibilities
- Design and build the test automation framework and the standards other engineers will follow.
- Write and maintain automated tests across the stack: API, integration, and end-to-end UI.
- Prioritize automation by risk and value, favoring fast, reliable API-level tests over brittle UI tests where possible.
- Integrate tests into CI/CD so they run automatically on every change and give fast feedback.
- Drive down flakiness and keep the suite trustworthy, so failures mean something.
- Evaluate and apply AI-assisted testing tools (test generation, self-healing tests, failure triage), and use AI and prompt engineering to accelerate test creation and edge-case discovery.
- Review AI-generated tests and code with a critical eye (you are the human-in-the-loop, not a rubber stamp).

- Solid API testing experience (Postman, REST Assured, or similar) and comfort with SQL and database validation.
- Hands-on experience integrating tests into CI/CD (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI).
- Working knowledge of cloud (AWS) and containers (Docker).
- A pragmatic, risk-based mindset and the judgement to know what's worth automating.
- Experience using AI coding assistants or AI test-generation tools in real work (GitHub Copilot, Claude, Cursor, or similar), with a clear view of their strengths and limits.
- Comfort writing effective prompts to generate test ideas, edge cases, and to analyze failures.
Benefits
- Remote-first environment, flexible working hours across North America, and hub offices in Charlottetown & Atlanta
- Comprehensive compensation package that grows with you
