QA Automation Engineer (UI and API) (m/f/d)

What you will do:

• Full-Stack Automation: Develop and maintain end-to-end test suites using Playwright (TypeScript) that cover both complex UI interactions and the underlying API logic.
• API Rigor: Design and execute sophisticated API tests (integration and contract testing) to validate request/response payloads, status codes, and data consistency across our microservices.
• Utilize AI tools to speed up test script authoring, generate synthetic test data, and implement self-healing UI tests.
• Ensure the Offerwall renders perfectly in various web-views and mobile browsers, using visual regression tools to catch UI regressions.
• Verify that frontend actions correctly reflect in our datastores (DynamoDB, Redis, MySQL) by querying databases directly within your test scripts.
• Own the quality gate in our pipeline, ensuring that both UI and API tests provide fast, reliable feedback to the engineering team.
• Test and validate the JS-to-Native bridge, ensuring that Offerwall interactions correctly trigger SDK events (e.g., completions, reward pings, and user attribution).
• Design and implement automated testing solutions and coordinate with the infrastructure team to integrate them into the CI/CD build pipeline.
• Go beyond explicit requirements. You will monitor system behavior, including network transfer rates, file size optimization, and database architecture efficiency.
• Take an active role in sprint and release planning. You will highlight missing requirements and identify potential architectural risks early in the lifecycle.
• Maintain a deep understanding of adjoe’s business model and the mobile advertising industry at large.

Who you are

• You have 3+ years of experience in QA Automation, with professional-grade proficiency in Playwright and TypeScript/JavaScript.
• You are "fluent" in HTTP. You have extensive experience testing RESTful APIs using tools like Postman, Insomnia, or Playwright’s native API testing capabilities, and you understand how to mock/stub dependencies.
• You don’t just test the "happy path." You look for edge cases in API error handling, latency issues, and complex state changes.
• You actively use AI coding assistants to write cleaner, more efficient test code and stay updated on AI-led QA trends.
• You have extensive experience designing automated tests using frameworks like Testmo, or Playwright, and you are comfortable working with APIs and datastores like MySQL, DynamoDB, and Redis.
• You can translate complex technical bugs into actionable feedback for developers and stakeholders alike, both in writing and in person.
• You naturally probe for what might go wrong. You accurately gauge risks and prioritize issues based on their impact on the business and the user.
• You thrive when imposing order on a team’s workflow, from structuring test plans to ensuring that documentation is comprehensive and accurate.
• You understand the mobile ad-tech industry and adjoe’s business model, allowing you to contribute meaningfully to product strategy.
