We build our tests in C# with a strong emphasis on API and messaging/middleware validation. UI tests are a supporting layer, primarily using Playwright on new projects (with some legacy Selenium).

• You will have an opportunity to create your own automated testing scenarios.
• Test new web applications over UI and API.
• Communication is huge part of this job as well. You will communicate with developers, product managers, and project managers to resolve defects.
• We will be more than happy for your contribution to our internally developed test automation stack.
• You will have access to Agentic AI tooling

Skills & Experience

• Experience Test automation in C# of UI and API
• Knowledge of the Playwright platform, Microservice design pattern and Agentic AI is a big advantage.
• Knowledge of Agile development methodologies.
• At least an intermediate level of English (B2).
