Secure Privacy is seeking a highly skilled QA Engineer to join their team, with a focus on AI, automation, and intelligent testing. As a QA Engineer, you will play a crucial role in designing and implementing scalable test automation frameworks, ensuring the highest quality of their Consent Management Platform and privacy governance products. You will work closely with the engineering and product teams to build a world-class QA function, leveraging tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot.

The role entails working remotely for 40 hours a week, with a blend of hands-on manual testing, automation engineering, and AI-assisted quality practices. If you are passionate about quality, automation, and the exploration of AI in transforming testing, this is an ideal opportunity for you.

What You Will Do

  • Design and implement scalable test automation frameworks using Playwright, ensuring seamless integration with existing systems.
  • Create comprehensive end-to-end test suites for consent flows, DSAR workflows, and privacy compliance scenarios, covering a wide range of user interactions and edge cases.
  • Build robust API test automation for REST endpoints and third-party integrations, guaranteeing data integrity and security.
  • Integrate AI coding agents into QA workflows for test generation, harnessing the power of AI to enhance testing efficiency and effectiveness.
  • Develop autonomous testing pipelines using Claude Code and AI agents, automating test generation, execution, and analysis for optimal feedback.
  • Embed automated tests into Azure DevOps Pipelines, ensuring fast feedback loops and stringent quality gates.
  • Conduct thorough exploratory and manual testing for new features and complex edge cases, identifying and reporting defects to ensure high-quality product delivery.
  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams to define acceptance criteria and embed testability into architecture, fostering a culture of quality from the outset.
  • Ensure consent banners and plugins function correctly across various browsers and customer configurations, providing a seamless user experience.

What We Are Looking For

  • A minimum of 4 years of experience in QA/test automation, with a strong background in framework development and implementation.
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as JavaScript/TypeScript or Python, with the ability to adapt to new technologies.
  • Deep experience with Playwright and familiarity with Cypress or Selenium, demonstrating a strong foundation in test automation tools.
  • Expertise in API testing, including REST, OAuth2/JWT, and integration testing, with a keen understanding of API security and data handling.
  • Experience with CI/CD integration using Azure DevOps Pipelines, Jenkins, or similar tools, ensuring the ability to streamline testing and deployment processes.
  • Solid understanding of web technologies, including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and browser developer tools, to effectively troubleshoot and resolve issues.
  • Strong manual and exploratory testing skills, with the ability to identify and report defects efficiently.
  • Experience or a strong interest in AI coding tools, particularly Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot, to leverage AI in testing and automation.

Nice to Have

  • Experience working in an agile environment, with familiarity with Scrum or Kanban methodologies.
  • Knowledge of cloud-based testing platforms and containerization using Docker.
  • Certification in test automation or a related field, demonstrating a commitment to professional development.
  • Participation in open-source projects or personal coding initiatives, showcasing a passion for coding and innovation.

Benefits and Perks

  • Competitive salary and benefits package, tailored to attract top talent in the industry.
  • Opportunity to work with cutting-edge technologies and tools, including AI coding agents and automation frameworks.
  • Collaborative and dynamic remote work environment, fostering open communication and teamwork.
  • Flexible working hours and remote work options, ensuring a healthy work-life balance.
  • Access to professional development resources and training, supporting continuous learning and growth.
  • Recognition and rewards for outstanding performance, motivating excellence and dedication.

How to Stand Out

  • Ensure your portfolio includes examples of test automation frameworks you've developed and implemented, highlighting your proficiency in Playwright and other relevant tools.
  • Be prepared to discuss your experience with AI coding agents and how you've integrated them into your QA workflows, demonstrating your ability to adapt to new technologies.
  • Highlight any experience you have with CI/CD pipelines and your understanding of how to optimize them for fast feedback and quality gates, showcasing your knowledge of agile development principles.
  • Emphasize your strong manual and exploratory testing skills, as these are crucial in identifying defects and ensuring high-quality product delivery, especially in complex systems.
  • Prepare to back your claims with specific examples from your past experience, focusing on accomplishments and the impact you've made in your previous roles, rather than just listing responsibilities.
  • Show a willingness to learn and adapt to new tools and technologies, as the field of QA engineering is constantly evolving, and a commitment to ongoing learning is essential.
  • Don't hesitate to ask about the company culture, team dynamics, and opportunities for growth during the interview, demonstrating your interest in the role and the company as a whole.
