This role is ideal for someone who enjoys automating complex user workflows, especially those involving PDF rendering, search/replace functionality, and REST API-driven web applications.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement automated E2E test cases using Playwright (or similar) for PDF workflows such as load, search, redaction, annotation, and save

• Build integration tests for REST APIs (Node.js backend) and validate key workflows like authentication, project/task creation, and S3 interactions

• Maintain and expand component-level tests for React-based UI using tools like React Testing Library and Jest

• Develop and test suites in CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions)

• Set up and manage test data across multiple tenant schemas (PostgreSQL on AWS RDS)

• Implement visual regression tests to detect rendering issues in WebViewer

• Work closely with developers, product managers, and DevOps engineers to identify edge cases and proactively address quality risks

• Optionally leverage AI-assisted test tools (like Testim.io, QA Wolf, Claude, or GitHub Copilot) to accelerate test development

Required Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience in QA automation for web applications

• Strong knowledge of Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium for browser-based E2E testing

• Experience testing RESTful APIs with tools like Postman, Supertest, or Newman

• Familiarity with JavaScript/TypeScript and modern test frameworks (Jest, Mocha)

• Experience with PDF testing challenges, e.g., validating content after edits

• Understanding of CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions, Bitbucket Pipelines, or similar)

• Exposure to AWS services like S3, RDS, ECS, and Cognito

• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, agile SaaS environment

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience testing document viewers like Apryse/WebViewer, PDF.js, or Adobe Embed

• Familiarity with multi-tenant architectures and schema-per-tenant databases

• Knowledge of visual testing tools like Percy or Applitools

• Comfort using AI-assisted QA tools

• Understanding of security testing basics (authentication, data leakage, etc.)
