Job Description

The QA Automation function is the ultimate guardian of our platform’s reliability, scalability, and deployment velocity.

In a complex, data-heavy ecosystem, manual testing is a bottleneck; continuous, intelligent, and bulletproof automation is the only way forward.

We are looking for a highly technical, hands-on QA Engineer who will focus relentlessly on End-to-End (E2E) test automation and production resilience .

You are not a passive test-case writer or a mere script executor; you are a proactive engineer who thrives on breaking complex distributed systems and finding edge cases before our customers do.

Your mission is to write robust automated test suites, embed them into our deployment pipelines, and ensure that our platform remains rock-solid and stable in production.

End-to-End Test Automation

Design, write, and maintain robust automated E2E test suites that mimic real-world enterprise workflows on the Actian Data Intelligence Platform.

Production Resilience Testing

Build automated tests specifically designed to test the platform's stability, load capacity, and recovery under stress or failure conditions.

Pipeline Integration

Embed your automated test suites seamlessly into our CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions/Jenkins) to provide developers with rapid feedback on every code change.

API & Data-Integrity Testing

Move beyond basic UI testing by writing deep integration and API automated tests to verify data accuracy across our distributed architecture.

Defect Triage & Regression Fixes

Partner closely with the Sustaining Engineering team to analyze production bugs, quickly writing automated tests to reproduce and permanently block them from returning.

Flakiness Eradication

Treat flaky tests as a critical bug.

Actively track, isolate, and rewrite unreliable tests to maintain total confidence in our automation results.

Early Quality Collaboration

Work side-by-side with backend developers and product owners early in the lifecycle to map out automated testing strategies before the code is even written.

AI-Powered Testing Tools

Leverage modern AI assistants and coding tools to generate test data, accelerate script writing, and debug test failures efficiently.

Clean Test Code Architecture

Write clean, modular, and reusable test scripts, conducting peer reviews with fellow QA engineers to keep the test codebase healthy.

Data-Driven Quality Tracking

Monitor feature-level QA metrics like test execution times, code coverage, and pass rates to continuously optimize the testing pipeline.

Technical Background

Solid experience as an Automation QA Engineer or SDET (Software Development Engineer in Test) working with complex cloud-native SaaS or distributed data platforms.

Automation Mastery

Deep, hands-on experience with modern automation frameworks (such as Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium) and programming languages like Java, Python, or Go.

Resilience Mindset

You are passionate about breaking code and finding hidden flaws.

You care deeply about how software behaves under pressure in a live production environment.

High-Agency Builder

You don't wait for code to be delivered to think about testing.

You anticipate regressions, ask hard technical questions, and actively push for quality from day one.

Infrastructure Familiarity

Basic understanding of cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or GCP), containers (Docker, Kubernetes), and version control (GitHub).

Communication

Exceptional English skills (written and spoken) to describe complex technical bugs clearly and collaborate easily with development teams.

What We Offer

The chance to be part of an innovative, fast-growing company making a significant impact in the data management space.

Collaboration with a passionate and diverse team.

Competitive salary and benefits package.

Flexible work arrangements (remote or hybrid).

Opportunities for professional growth and development.

Why Join Us? At Actian, we are passionate about innovation and teamwork.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment, loves creating an efficient and welcoming workspace, and enjoys working closely with a talented team.

Interested? We’d love to hear from you! Let’s discuss how you can contribute to our success while growing your career with us.
