Test Automation Specialist

We are looking for an experienced Test Automation Specialist to lead the design, implementation, and adoption of an automated testing framework supporting Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) development.

The role requires hands-on experience integrating testing throughout the specification, development, and deployment lifecycle, working closely with development teams and leveraging open-source technologies where appropriate. The ideal candidate has successfully introduced pragmatic and scalable test practices into established development environments and understands how to balance quality, speed, and business value.

The successful candidate will be passionate about hands-on technical testing and actively participate in Scrum ceremonies alongside developers to define, implement, and continuously improve testing. This is not a purely coordination-focused role. Instead, the specialist is expected to contribute directly to test design, scripting, execution, and troubleshooting.

Furthermore, the candidate should be comfortable joining an environment where test processes, tooling, and automation practices are still maturing. The role will play a key part in establishing, documenting, and anchoring a sustainable test automation framework across multiple development teams.

Key Responsibilities and Experience

We are specifically looking for experience in the following areas:

• Infrastructure and platform testing
• Test automation strategy, implementation, and maintenance
• Integration of automated testing into CI/CD and delivery pipelines
• Testing of Infrastructure-as-Code deployments
• API, service, and integration testing
• Automated regression, validation, and smoke testing
• Test scripting, debugging, and technical troubleshooting
• Test evidence management and documentation of test execution results
• Defining appropriate automation scope and determining what should remain manual
• Test data management, including anonymization and masking where required
• Working within production-like environments subject to security and compliance requirements
• Improving and extending existing test automation solutions rather than relying on greenfield implementations
• Designing, documenting, and continuously improving test frameworks and test processes
• Collaborating effectively with developers, architects, and platform engineers

Required Qualifications and Competencies

• ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level (or equivalent certification)
• ISTQB Agile Tester Extension (or equivalent certification)
• Practical experience working with Azure DevOps (ADO)
• Experience with test automation frameworks, tools, and scripting languages
• Experience leveraging AI-assisted development and testing tools, such as Claude, GitHub Copilot, or similar technologies
• Strong understanding of modern software development and DevOps practices
• Experience working in Agile/Scrum environments
• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills

• Only those applicants who already have the right to live and work in the Philippines are eligible to apply for this role.
