πΌ Available QA Positions
π€ QA Automation Engineer
The automation openings are designed for engineers with strong hands-on experience in:
- β Java / J2SE
- π₯οΈ Selenium WebDriver
- π§ͺ TestNG
- π REST Assured & Postman
- π¦ Maven
- π Git
- βοΈ Jenkins & CI/CD
- π³ Docker
- π GitHub Actions
- ποΈ Automation Framework Development
Candidates should be capable of designing maintainable frameworks rather than simply writing individual Selenium scripts.
π§ͺ Senior Manual QA
The Senior Manual QA position focuses on:
- Enterprise web application testing
- Functional, regression, smoke and sanity testing
- Integration, system and UAT testing
- Test planning and test-case design
- API testing
- SQL/database validation
- Defect management
- Root-cause analysis
- Release validation
This position is particularly suitable for senior testers who can independently plan testing, identify product risks and provide evidence-based release recommendations.
β Why This Role Is Good for Your Experience
These opportunities are valuable because they combine traditional QA fundamentals with modern engineering practices. Automation engineers can strengthen their experience across Java, Selenium, API automation, CI/CD, Docker and GitHub Actions, while senior manual testers can demonstrate ownership across test planning, UAT, API, database, RCA and release validation.
The biggest differentiator is the company’s emphasis on AI-assisted engineering. Experience with prompt engineering, LLM tools, Claude, Claude Code, MCP, AI agents, GitHub Copilot, Cursor or n8n can make a candidate stand out.
π§ Skills You Should Highlight
QA Automation: Java, Selenium WebDriver, TestNG, REST Assured, Postman, Maven, Git, Jenkins, Docker, GitHub Actions, CI/CD, API automation, framework architecture, Page Object Model and parallel execution.
Senior Manual QA: Functional testing, regression, integration, system, UAT, exploratory testing, API testing, SQL, test planning, test strategy, defect management, RCA and release validation.
AI Advantage: Prompt Engineering, LLM applications, Claude, Claude Code, MCP, AI Agents, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, n8n and AI-assisted test generation/analysis.
Domain Advantage: Publication, content-management, document-processing or enterprise content platforms.

- π Prepare a CI/CD explanation covering Git β Jenkins/GitHub Actions β automated execution β reporting.
- π³ Understand why Docker is useful for consistent automation environments.
- π§ͺ Manual QA candidates: Prepare complete test strategies for an enterprise web application, including functional, regression, UAT, API and database testing.
- ποΈ Practice SQL joins, subqueries, aggregation and application-to-database validation.
- π Prepare two strong RCA examples involving escaped defects or recurring failures.
- π€ For the AI differentiator, understand how you haveβor couldβuse LLMs for test-case generation, automation assistance, defect analysis and test-data creation, while protecting confidential information.
- π If you have publication-domain experience, prepare examples involving content workflows, metadata, document processing, search or publishing platforms.
π Resume Tips
Tailor your resume to the exact position.
- For automation, lead with Java + Selenium + TestNG + REST Assured + CI/CD.
- For manual QA, lead with Enterprise Testing + API + SQL + UAT + RCA + Release Validation.
- Quantify automation coverage, regression-time reduction, defect detection or release improvements.
- Mention frameworks you designed or enhanced, not just tools you used.
- Add AI-assisted engineering experience in a dedicated AI/GenAI Skills section if genuine.
- Mention publication-domain experience prominently if applicable.
- Clearly state notice period and immediate/short-notice availability.
