Join the Mission: Help a Leading Enterprise Redefine Quality at Scale
Twelve months. One high-impact mission. Endless opportunities to shape how testing is done in a complex, modern engineering environment.
A leading enterprise business in Sydney is calling for a Contract QA Automation Engineer — someone not just looking to write tests, but to leave a mark. Think of it as joining a journey in progress — one where the automation landscape is transforming, and your experience can accelerate that change.
What You’ll Walk Into You’ll step into a large-scale environment with critical platforms that touch millions of users. The automation foundation is there — but it needs a builder, a problem-solver, and a QA strategist to take it to the next level.
You’ll be owning automation across both API and UI, partnering with platform teams, devs, and testers to future-proof the testing strategy.
Your Quest: What You'll Be Doing
API Automation
- Migrate and modernise existing API test suites (think Karate, Postman)
- Review endpoints, automate from scratch, and integrate a pen-test proxy layer
- Create robust mock environments to simulate real-world conditions
UI Automation
- Enhance end-to-end user journeys using Playwright
- Implement visual testing with Applitools
- Build automation for payment workflows, account actions, and more
Overall Test Strategy
- Expand regression test coverage
- Define testing best practices for the broader engineering team
- Investigate flaky tests and decommission outdated test systems
Your Toolkit To thrive, you’ll bring:
- API automation expertise – Karate, Postman, or similar tools
- UI automation skills – ideally in Playwright and Applitools
- Experience shaping test strategies and frameworks
- A proven background in enterprise-scale engineering environments
Why This Role? You won’t just be writing tests. You’ll be defining how quality is engineered in a complex, high-traffic system. This is a role for someone who enjoys autonomy, creative problem solving, and delivering high-impact work across multiple teams.
Location: Sydney
Duration: 12-month contract (strong chance of extension)
