Paralucent is seeking a Senior QA Automation Engineer to lead quality engineering for a complex enterprise workflow and case-management platform. You will build the automation strategy and ensure requirements are traced through functional, integration, end-to-end, performance, resilience, security, accessibility, RPA and AI/model testing.
The ideal candidate treats quality as a delivery system, not a final testing phase.
What You'll Do
-
Create the test strategy, automation architecture, environment/data plan and quality gates for incremental releases.
-
Translate acceptance criteria, controls and non-functional requirements into executable tests and evidence.
-
Automate API, UI, workflow, document, integration and regression testing.
-
Design end-to-end scenarios covering intake, classification, routing, information retrieval, approvals, exceptions, dispatch, closure and audit.
-
Test failure handling, retries, reconciliation, unavailable systems, low-confidence AI results and manual fallback.
-
Coordinate performance, resilience, disaster-recovery, accessibility and security testing with specialist teams.
-
Lead AI-specific evaluation testing, including false positives/negatives, unsupported outputs, confidence thresholds and human overrides.
-
Maintain requirements-to-test-to-evidence traceability and production-readiness reporting.
-
Support UAT, defect triage, root-cause analysis, release decisions and post-production monitoring.
-
Coach engineers on shift-left testing and testability.
What Success Looks Like
-
Critical user journeys and controls have automated regression coverage.
-
Defects are detected before UAT and production, with improving escape and rework trends.
-
Every production release has complete, reviewable test evidence.
-
Integration, RPA, AI and fallback scenarios are tested under realistic conditions.
-
Quality reporting gives decision-makers a clear view of release risk.
-
7+ years in quality engineering or test automation for enterprise applications.
-
Strong experience automating UI, API, integration and end-to-end tests using modern frameworks.
-
Experience with workflow/case management, complex integrations and regulated production releases.
-
Experience in banking/financial services preferred; regulated-industry experience accepted.
-
Practical knowledge of performance, accessibility, security, resilience and disaster-recovery testing.
-
Experience with CI/CD quality gates, test-data management, defect analytics and traceability.
-
Strong analytical and communication skills.
Preferred Experience
-
Experience testing OCR, AI/ML or human-in-the-loop recommendations.
-
Experience testing RPA and legacy-system integrations.
-
Experience with bilingual applications and WCAG validation.
-
ISTQB or comparable quality certification.
Role Scorecard: Illustrative Measures
Final targets and cadence will be confirmed for the specific assignment. Typical measures include:
-
Automated regression coverage
-
Defect escape and severity trends
-
Test execution reliability
-
Requirements-to-evidence traceability
-
Performance/resilience results
-
UAT defect rate and turnaround
-
Release-readiness evidence timeliness
