- Research and introduce new testing tools and technologies that improve how we work
- Mentor junior engineers in test automation, sharing knowledge and raising the bar for the whole team
- Assist with building and maintaining testing environments to support reliable, repeatable testing
- Partner with teams to prioritize the most impactful automation work, balancing new coverage with framework health
What you'll bring

- Hands-on experience with Playwright for testing modern web applications — this is our primary testing tool across Daxko products
- Hands-on experience building test automation suites from scratch
- Experience testing web applications and RESTful APIs
- Proficiency with agentic AI tools and a habit of applying them in your day-to-day workflow
- Strong communication skills and the ability to explain complex technical ideas clearly to both technical and non-technical teammates
- A bachelor's degree in Computer Science, MIS, Software Engineering, or equivalent experience
Nice to have
