Position Summary
This is not a traditional QA role. We are seeking skilled software developers with strong Python expertise and a solid understanding of software engineering principles to design and implement robust automation frameworks and tools. The role focuses on engineering solutions to replace repetitive manual testing workflows, utilizing advanced Python capabilities.

Responsibilities
    •         Develop, enhance, and maintain test automation frameworks and tools for complex systems.
    •         Build scalable and efficient solutions to automate end-to-end testing, including APIs, databases, and system integrations.
    •         Implement advanced automation techniques using Python, leveraging features like hooks, fixtures, decorators, and concurrency (e.g., threading or asyncio).
    •         Collaborate closely with development and product teams to ensure automation solutions align with specifications and deliverables.
    •         Execute and optimize test plans, focusing on integration, regression, performance, and system-level testing.
    •         Work with CI/CD tools to integrate automated tests into the development pipeline and improve test coverage.
    •         Troubleshoot, debug, and resolve issues in automation frameworks and test executions.
    •         Continuously refine test strategies and workflows to improve efficiency and maintainability.

Qualifications
    •         Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
    •         2+ years of hands-on software development experience with a strong focus on Python.
    •         Proficiency in building test automation frameworks using pytest, including advanced features like hooks and fixtures.
    •         Familiarity with REST API testing, JSON schema validation, and HTTP protocols.
    •         Solid understanding of RDBMS concepts, preferably MySQL, including writing and optimizing queries.
    •         Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git) and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions).
    •         Strong problem-solving and debugging skills.
    •         Ability to work effectively in a collaborative, Agile development environment.


Preferred Skills
    •         Experience with Python concurrency (e.g., asyncio, threading) and metaprogramming techniques.
    •         Familiarity with cloud platforms such as AWS and tools like CloudWatch.
    •         Knowledge of containerized environments (e.g., Docker) and distributed systems testing.

Why Join Us
    •         Work on innovative projects that directly impact the healthcare industry.
    •         Collaborate with a talented team in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.
    •         Gain hands-on experience with advanced tools and frameworks in test automation.
