Experience : 4+ years.

Location : Kochi / Thirivanathapuram, Hybrid 4-day office & 1-day WFH.

This is a critical role for our client with a strong background as an Automation QA Engineer or Software Developer in Test (SDET), who is passionate about building, maintaining, and scaling robust automated test solutions for technically complex, high-load, and distributed systems.

Note : Due to the specialised nature of our client's business, candidates with prior work experience in the Networking, Telecom, Cybersecurity, or High-Load / Distributed Systems domain are strongly preferred.

Key Responsibilities :

Automation Framework Leadership : Design, develop, and maintain advanced, scalable, and reusable test automation frameworks, with a strong focus on Python and the pytest ecosystem.

Coding & Scripting : Write high-quality, maintainable test code in Python, applying strong Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) principles and design patterns.

Utilize features like mocking, parametrization, and custom fixture layers effectively.

System Testing : Implement comprehensive test automation for UI (Web) and Mobile applications using modern tools like Selenium WebDriver, Appium, Playwright, or Cypress.

Distributed Systems Testing : Develop and execute automation tests for complex backend systems, including those leveraging message brokers / streaming systems like Apache Kafka and RabbitMQ.

CI / CD Integration : Champion a solid CI / CD mindset, integrating automated tests seamlessly into pipelines using tools such as Jenkins, TeamCity, GitHub Actions, or GitLab CI to ensure continuous quality.

Environment Management : Build and manage containerized test environments using Docker and Docker Compose, with a working understanding of orchestration platforms like Kubernetes (K8s).

Troubleshooting & Observability : Utilize advanced analytical and debugging skills to perform root cause analysis by correlating logs, tracing data, and metrics using observability tools like Kibana, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack, and CloudWatch.

Cloud Proficiency : Leverage hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) to manage test infrastructure and environments.

Quality Advocacy : Collaborate effectively with Development, DevOps, and Product Management teams, driving a culture of quality and technical excellence.

Innovation : Explore and utilize AI-driven productivity tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude) to enhance test design, documentation, and automation efforts.

Required Skills and Experience :

4+ years of hands-on experience in a dedicated Automation QA Engineer or SDET role.

4+ years of strong, hands-on Python experience in test automation, including advanced knowledge of OOP, design patterns, and expertise with pytest (or similar frameworks like unittest).

Mandatory Domain Experience : Proven working experience in the Networking, Telecom, Cybersecurity, or High-Load / Distributed Systems domain.

Deep expertise in developing and maintaining automated test frameworks from the ground up (Framework Development is a key strength).

Experience with CI / CD processes and tools (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, etc.).

Working knowledge of message brokers / streaming (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ).

Familiarity with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and cloud services (AWS / GCP / Azure).

Experience with UI / Mobile test automation (Selenium, Appium, Playwright, or Cypress).

Excellent communication (written and verbal) and collaboration skills.

Bonus Skills :

Experience in multiple programming languages (e.g., JavaScript, Kotlin, Java, or Go).

Experience with high-load testing and performance engineering.

Practical experience with AI tools (Cursor, Claude) for coding and productivity.
