[Hiring] Software Engineer in Test @Newxel

Role Description

You'll be embedded in the engineering team of a FinOps SaaS platform, owning automated test coverage for a product where correctness isn't cosmetic — it's business-critical. Your job is to make sure they're right, and to build the infrastructure that proves it systematically.

• The platform processes large-scale cloud billing and usage data for cloud-driven organizations.
• It turns raw consumption into cost reports, optimization recommendations, and dashboards used by finance, engineering, and FinOps teams.
• The domain is inherently data-heavy and logic-dense.
• The test surface spans dashboards, data pipelines, integrations, and business-critical calculation layers.

Technology Stack:

• Automation runs on Cypress or Playwright — modern, well-supported, JavaScript/TypeScript-native.
• AI tooling is used actively as part of the QA workflow.
• The product environment is data-heavy, so expect SQL and cloud billing logic to be part of your testing surface.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Design and build automated end-to-end tests for complex web application flows.
• Translate product behavior, user workflows, and technical risks into test scenarios.
• Work alongside developers and PMs to understand new features before they ship.
• Investigate bugs with depth: reproduce, identify root cause, document clearly, and communicate findings.
• Use AI tooling actively to accelerate test planning, test generation, failure analysis, and coverage improvement.
• Maintain and improve the test suite's structure, reliability, and scalability.
• Participate in release processes and act as a quality signal for what's safe to ship.

Qualifications

• 2–4 years of hands-on QA automation or Software Engineer in Test experience.
• Practical experience building and maintaining automated tests for web applications.
• Experience with Cypress, Playwright, Selenium, or comparable frameworks.
• Solid coding skills in JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, or similar.
• Strong analytical thinking — you dig into why something failed, not just that it failed.
• Experience testing SaaS products with dashboards, reports, or data-intensive surfaces.
• Good English communication skills.

Requirements

• API testing experience (nice to have).
• Familiarity with Git and CI/CD workflows (nice to have).
• SQL or large dataset experience (nice to have).
• Basic understanding of AWS, Azure, or GCP (nice to have).
• Experience testing integrations, data pipelines, billing systems, or analytics platforms (nice to have).
• Experience improving automation infrastructure, not just writing individual tests (nice to have).

Benefits

• The product domain is technically substantive — cloud cost logic, billing data, and FinOps workflows have real edge cases that require engineering-level understanding to test well.
• The team is small and experienced, which means your work has visible impact.
• AI-assisted testing is a genuine part of the workflow here.
