Senior Quality Assurance Engineer
To strengthen our development team, we are looking for someone to join our Quality Assurance Engineering team, specialising in test automation. In this role, you will work on quality assurance for our Java-based SaaS solution and develop automated tests that help us deliver new features reliably and detect regressions at an early stage.
The focus is on automated system, integration and regression testing, carried out in close collaboration with software development and DevOps.
Your tasks:
- Specification, development, extension and maintenance of automated tests for our Java-based SaaS platform
- System tests without external dependencies, to ensure that key product functions are stable and reproducible
- Integration tests involving external dependencies, whereby these are recorded or simulated to ensure deterministic test behaviour
- Expanding our regression test suite to ensure that existing functionality is reliably tested in new releases
- Analysis of failed tests, identification of root causes, and close coordination with development and DevOps
- Quality assurance of newly developed features in collaboration with the developers responsible
- Contributing to test strategies, test data concepts and the further development of our QA processes, including the effective use of AI tools
- Support in the further development of our CI/CD and test automation infrastructure
Your profile:
- Several years’ experience in test automation for backend, web or SaaS systems
- A good knowledge of Java or a comparable programming language, as well as a sound technical understanding of APIs, data flows, services and dependencies between systems
- Experience with automated system, integration and regression testing, as well as test frameworks, build pipelines and CI/CD environments
- A systematic approach to identifying the root causes of issues, as well as a willingness to work closely with developers, DevOps teams and product managers.
- A very good understanding that quality assurance is a comprehensive process that goes beyond mere automation
- Ability to work in a team, willingness to develop, sense of responsibility and reliability.
It’s a plus if you have:
- Experience with testing frameworks such as JUnit, Mockito, TestContainers, RestAssured or similar tools
- Experience with contract testing, mocking, stubbing or recording external services
- Experience with Docker, Kubernetes or cloud-based SaaS architectures
- Experience with CI/CD systems, such as GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins or similar tools
- Experience with AI tools and their practical application in supporting QA, test automation or development processes
- Experience with monitoring, logging or fault analysis in distributed systems
- A place of residence in Vienna or the surrounding area
