REMOTE QA Automation Engineer

Job Description

Insight Global is seeking a Quality Assurance Automation Engineer for our customer to help advance automation efforts across its platform teams. This individual will be a hands-on engineer responsible for building and expanding automated testing capabilities, with a primary focus on backend and API testing.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and maintain automated test frameworks using Playwright, Reqnroll, SpecFlow, RestSharp, and related technologies

• Build and execute automated tests across APIs, backend services, integrations, and business workflows

• Partner closely with software developers to improve quality throughout the software development lifecycle

• Review application architecture and development changes to identify automation opportunities

• Integrate automated testing into existing CI/CD and development pipelines

• Perform manual, exploratory, and automated testing where appropriate

• Debug and troubleshoot complex application issues across multiple systems

• Expand automation coverage while improving reliability and maintainability of existing test suites

• Participate in Agile ceremonies, PI Planning activities, and cross-functional team collaboration

• Support testing efforts across Unit, Integration, Acceptance, Regression, System, UAT, Security, and Performance testing initiatives
