QA Automation Engineer

Location: Remote Working Hours: U.S. Business Hours Employment Type: Full-Time

About the Role

We’re hiring a QA Automation Engineer to build, maintain, and scale automated testing systems for a fast-growing, product-focused technology company.

This is an automation-first engineering role focused on Playwright and TypeScript — not a manual QA position.

You will work directly with frontend and backend engineers to improve product quality, strengthen regression coverage, eliminate flaky tests, and ensure reliable deployments across the development lifecycle.

The ideal candidate is highly technical, ownership-driven, and experienced building scalable end-to-end automation frameworks in modern SaaS environments.

If you enjoy solving complex testing challenges, improving framework reliability, and working closely with engineering teams in fast-paced product environments, this role is for you.

What You’ll Own

End-to-End Test Automation

• Build, maintain, and expand E2E automation coverage using Playwright and TypeScript • Develop scalable and maintainable automation frameworks for critical product workflows • Ensure strong regression coverage across frontend and backend systems • Write reliable, reusable, and performance-focused automated tests

Test Stability & Framework Reliability

• Identify, troubleshoot, and eliminate flaky tests • Improve test execution performance and framework stability • Diagnose issues related to asynchronous behavior, DOM interactions, and network requests • Maintain stable and reliable automation environments across releases

CI/CD & Infrastructure Integration

• Integrate automation suites into CI/CD pipelines for continuous testing • Ensure automated tests run efficiently within deployment workflows • Maintain test data strategies and reliable test environments • Support deployment confidence through automated quality validation

Collaboration & Product Quality

• Collaborate directly with frontend and backend engineers during feature development • Participate in release validation and quality planning discussions • Support engineering teams with testing strategy and automation best practices • Improve overall product reliability through proactive automation coverage

AI-Assisted Testing & Optimization

• Utilize AI tools to support exploratory testing and edge-case discovery • Identify opportunities to improve automation workflows through intelligent tooling • Continuously optimize testing processes for speed, reliability, and scalability

What Makes You a Great Fit

• You think like an engineer, not just a tester • You take ownership of automation systems and long-term framework stability • You enjoy solving reliability and scalability challenges • You are highly analytical and detail-oriented • You thrive in low-management, high-autonomy environments • You proactively improve systems instead of waiting for direction

Required Experience & Skills

• Strong proficiency in TypeScript • Hands-on experience with Playwright • Strong Cypress background is acceptable if willing to transition to Playwright • Proven experience building and maintaining E2E automation frameworks • Deep understanding of: • DOM interaction • Network requests • Asynchronous behavior • Diagnosing flaky tests • Experience integrating automated testing into CI/CD pipelines • Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills • Excellent written and verbal English communication skills

Preferred Experience

• Experience building automation infrastructure from scratch • Strong understanding of test data management strategies • Experience testing B2B SaaS products or multi-tenant systems • Familiarity with role-based access and permissions testing • Exposure to AI-assisted testing workflows and automation tools • Experience working in fast-moving startup or product-led environments

What a Typical Day Looks Like

A QA Automation Engineer’s day revolves around improving automation reliability, expanding test coverage, and supporting engineering velocity. You will: • Develop and maintain Playwright E2E tests • Review failed tests and diagnose instability issues • Improve framework performance and regression reliability • Collaborate with engineers on feature releases and test coverage • Maintain CI/CD automation workflows and test environments • Identify edge cases and improve automation coverage using AI-assisted workflows • Continuously optimize testing systems for speed, scalability, and reliability

In short: you ensure the product ships quickly, safely, and reliably through scalable automation systems.

Key Metrics for Success (KPIs)

• Stability and reliability of automation frameworks • Reduction in flaky or failing tests • Increased automated regression coverage • Faster and more reliable CI/CD testing cycles • Reduced production bugs and release issues • Test execution speed and framework performance improvements

Interview Process

• Initial Screening Call (Pavago) • Technical Assessment / Automation Review • Client Technical Interview • Final Interview (Culture & Ownership Fit) • Offer & Onboarding

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
