  • Design and implement AI-augmented Quality Engineering solutions including agentic test generation and self-healing frameworks.
  • Migrate automation frameworks and test data management onto AWS-native services like Bedrock and Lambda.
  • Transition the testing model toward agent-orchestrated QE where autonomous agents manage portions of the release cycle.
  • Translate business workflows for Sales and Enrollment into scalable, automated testing solutions.
  • Develop automated SDLC pipelines including requirement-to-test generation and PR impact analysis.
  • Establish evaluation frameworks and guardrails for AI-generated test artifacts and automation outputs.
  • Integrate LLM-based tools and modern automation frameworks into CI/CD pipelines and enterprise platforms.
  • Manage, mentor, and provide technical direction for a team of SDETs.

What we're looking for

  • 7+ years of experience in Software Development Engineering, Quality Engineering, or related technical disciplines.
  • 2+ years of experience leading automation strategy and/or managing engineering teams.
  • Hands-on experience with JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, or Python.
  • Experience building and integrating APIs and distributed systems.
  • Experience with test automation frameworks such as Playwright, Selenium, or Cypress.
  • Experience with API testing tools like Postman, RestAssured, or Karate.
  • Experience testing React-based applications including component-level and end-to-end UI testing.
  • Hands-on experience with AI/GenAI tools.
  • Experience in Healthcare, Medicare, or Sales & Acquisition domain (preferred).
  • Exposure to AI-driven SDLC, agent-based automation frameworks, or AWS-native services (preferred).
