You will be joining a team that is contributing to GenAI features on our product roadmap. There is a high learning opportunity to create AI features that scale across the development teams.

  • You independently diagnose the root cause of defects and enable engineers to fix them on time.
  • You assist in automating non-functional tests with tools that align with Nintex engineering principles.
  • You proactively learn from others' testing and test automation best practices while prioritizing learning to support your delivery team.
  • You own testing activities, seek functional clarity from stakeholders where required, and collaborate on acceptance criteria, manual testing, and automation.

 

To be successful, we think you need: 

  • 3-5 years of relevant work experience in test automation within software development environments. 
  • Demonstrable experience in designing, developing, and executing automated test scripts using tools like Selenium, Cypress, or Playwright.

  • Proficiency in one or more programming languages commonly used for test automation, such as Python, Java, JavaScript, or C#. 
  • Ability to write reusable and modular test scripts as part of the automation process. 
  • Experience with testing frameworks like JUnit, TestNG, PyTest, or other similar tools for running and managing automated tests. 
  • Hands-on experience working with CI/CD pipelines using tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI, or CircleCI to automate testing as part of the deployment process. 
  • Ability to automate API tests for integration points between systems.
