Test Automation Engineer (Web) (m/f/d)

As a Test Automation Engineer (m/f/d), you will be responsible for building and maintaining automated tests that ensure the reliability and performance of our web-based software products.

You will work closely with developers and product teams to integrate testing directly into the development workflow and help deliver stable, high-quality releases.

This role is highly hands-on, with a strong emphasis on writing code for automation rather than managing test processes or documentation-heavy workflows.

What is your Day to Day Mission:

• Design, implement, and maintain automated test suites for web applications (UI, API, and integration levels)

• Collaborate with developers to ensure testability and integrate tests into CI/CD pipelines

• Analyze test results, debug failures, and help identify root causes

• Contribute to test strategy and tooling decisions with a pragmatic, engineering-driven mindset

• Continuously improve test reliability, execution speed, and maintainability

• Perform targeted manual or exploratory testing when automation is not sufficient

What you bring to the team:

• 3+ years of experience in test automation or software engineering

• Strong programming skills (e.g., TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, or similar)

• Hands-on experience with modern automation tools such as:

  1. Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, or similar

  2. Solid understanding of web technologies (HTML, CSS, browser behavior, APIs)

  Nice to Have:

• Experience testing REST APIs and working with tools like Postman or similar

• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins)

• Basic frontend development experience (React, Angular, Vue, or similar)

• Experience with test architecture/design patterns (Page Object Model, fixtures, etc.)

• Ability to debug issues across the stack (frontend ↔ backend ↔ test code)

• Knowledge of performance or load testing
