Strong programming and framework development skills are essential; UI and API automation are secondary.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and develop reusable automation frameworks for SDKs across multiple languages, including TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, Java, and Go.
- Automate SDK functionality, compatibility, error handling, integration, and release validation.
- Build and maintain MCP test frameworks to validate clients, servers, tools, resources, prompts, transports, and protocol interactions.
- Develop automated tests for prompts, AI workflows, tool calling, structured outputs, and LLM response quality.
- Develop and maintain automated test coverage for XAA, validating functionality, integrations, error handling, and reliability across supported workflows.
- Build reusable test utilities, mocks, test harnesses, and developer productivity tools.
- Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines and troubleshoot flaky tests, failures, and infrastructure issues.
- Leverage GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and other GenAI tools for test generation, debugging, and framework development.
- Collaborate with developers, architects, and platform teams to improve quality, reliability, and release confidence.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
- 5–8 years of experience in SDET, software testing, test infrastructure, or software engineering.
- Strong programming skills in at least one language: TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, Java, or Go.
- Experience building automation frameworks, reusable libraries, or developer tools.
- Strong understanding of SDK testing, integration testing, regression testing, and compatibility testing.
- Experience with Git, CI/CD, and debugging complex software systems.
- Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot or Claude Code.
- Strong problem-solving, ownership, and communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with MCP clients/servers, protocol testing, or MCP SDKs.
- Experience with prompt automation, LLM evaluation, AI agents, or AI-powered applications.
- Experience testing SDKs across multiple programming languages.
- Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, cloud environments, and performance testing.
- Working knowledge of API automation and UI frameworks such as Playwright or Cypress.
