About EngageRocketEngageRocket is Asia’s leading employee experience platform, helping organizations build stronger, more engaged, and more resilient workforces. We believe that quality and trust are at the core of everything we deliver to our customers. That’s why we are looking for a Senior Automation QA who combines strong technical testing skills with curiosity, independent thinking, and the ability to connect technical details with business impact.This is a hands-on role: you’ll figure out how our platform works, write code that tests code, debug flaky tests, and improve our automation framework so that our team can ship faster without compromising quality.What You’ll Do
  • Create, maintain and expand automation suites (Golang for backend, Python for APIs/integration, Playwright/Selenium for UI).
  • Debug failures at root cause — distinguishing between issues in tests, code, or environment.
  • Design and implement new automated tests for upcoming features, ensuring risk-based coverage.
  • Set up and manage test data and environments for reliable, reproducible testing.
  • Collaborate with developers and product managers to make code more testable and ensure requirements are testable and clear.
  • Balance automation and manual testing, prioritizing what brings the highest value.
  • Keep CI/CD pipelines healthy and respond quickly when builds break.
  • Review pull requests with a quality and testability lens.
Tech Stack
  • Languages & Frameworks: Golang testing, Python (pytest), Selenium/Playwright
  • Backend & Infra: Kubernetes, AWS, Terraform, Redshift, Nest.js/Node.js, React
  • CI/CD: GitLab CI, GitHub Actions
  • Tooling: Docker for environments, proxy/debugging tools, Postman for APIs
What We’re Looking For
  • 5+ years of test automation experience with solid programming skills in Python or Golang (both is a plus).
  • Strong foundation in testing principles and theory, beyond just tools.
  • Experience with API testing, debugging tools, and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Ability to investigate deeply (logs, queries, environments) to uncover root causes.
  • Clear communication in English, especially when documenting frameworks and discussing trade-offs.
  • Pragmatic view of automation: knowing when to automate and when exploratory/manual testing adds more value.
  • Experience working with inherited codebases and improving them incrementally.
Nice to Have
  • Kubernetes and containerized testing experience.
  • Familiarity with performance and security testing.
  • AWS services testing.
  • Background spanning both development and QA roles.
Why Join EngageRocket?
  • Impact that matters: Your work directly influences how thousands of employees experience their workplaces.
  • Growth opportunities: You’ll touch multiple parts of the stack and have space to sharpen both technical and QA strategy skills.
  • Curious, driven peers: Work with a team that values asking the right questions as much as having the right answers.
  • Lean and fast-moving: More ownership
