Senior QA Automation Engineer / Team Lead (.js / Node.js) (remote, full-time)

We are developing an IT product that includes a large-scale WEB platform and an interactive Telegram bot/Mini App. Our stack: Backend on Node.js, Frontend on JavaScript. The product is growing rapidly, and now we are looking for a Senior QA Automation Engineer. Your main task is to build automated testing from scratch, combining the verification of the WEB interface, Telegram bot, and backend into a single reliable system.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and enhance a scalable automated testing framework using JavaScript / TypeScript + Node.js.
• Write and maintain E2E tests, as well as automate the testing of the product's WEB version, including UI/UX and cross-browser compatibility, plus the Telegram bot interface.
• Develop and automate API tests for business logic and integrations verification (REST / WebSockets).
• Design and implement CI/CD testing pipelines: set up regular execution of autotests in GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins.
• Conduct code reviews of automated tests and testing infrastructure.
• Analyze and improve product test coverage; develop and maintain test reporting.
• Localize bugs and create clear bug reports; set up automatic ticket creation in Jira upon autotest failure.
• Monitor the relevance of test documentation: test plans and checklists; collaborate with the team to define priority scenarios for automation.
• Implement best testing practices and develop automation processes.
• Close collaboration with Backend, Frontend, QA, and DevOps teams.

Requirements:

• Commercial experience in test automation for at least 4 years (including elements of leadership / informal task management).
• Excellent knowledge of JavaScript and the Node.js ecosystem; confident proficiency in TypeScript.
• Experience in automating UI testing of websites using Playwright or Cypress.
• Experience in API testing and understanding of web protocols.
• Understanding of the specifics and architecture of Telegram bots, including Bot API.
• Confident command of Git, basic SQL knowledge, understanding of CI/CD principles, and experience with pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins).
• Experience conducting code reviews and willingness to help develop the team (if necessary, with the prospect of formal leadership).

Will be a plus:

• Experience in simultaneous testing of end-to-end scenarios, for example, where an action on the WEB site leads to checking the reaction in the Telegram bot.
• Willingness to provide a link to a Git repository with examples of your autotests.
