About the role
- In this role, you will be responsible for designing automation frameworks, setting standards, and embedding quality into every step of the development lifecycle.
- This candidate will work closely with the Engineering and Product teams spread across North America, Europe and India.
Responsibilities
- Architect, build, and maintain robust end-to-end test automation frameworks using tools like Playwright.
- Design test strategies that cover the full stack: UI, API, smart contract interactions, and wallet flows
- Write and maintain tests for Web3-specific user journeys including wallet connection, transaction signing, contract interactions, and on-chain state verification
Requirements
- Automation Expertise
- 7+ years of experience in QA engineering with a strong focus on automation
- Proficiency in at least one scripting/programming language (TypeScript, JavaScript, Python)
- Experience designing and scaling test frameworks from the ground up, not just maintaining existing ones
- Strong understanding of CI/CD practices and integrating tests into pipelines (GitHub Actions, CircleCI, etc.)
- Working knowledge of core Web3 concepts: wallets (MetaMask, WalletConnect), transaction signing, smart contracts, gas, RPC endpoints, and on-chain/off-chain interactions
- Experience testing dApps and writing tests that interact with or simulate blockchain state
- You have real opinions on where these tools shine and where they fall short - you've found the edges
- You use AI to move faster without sacrificing rigor, and you can teach others to do the same
- Deep hands-on experience with Playwright and/or Cypress; familiarity with others (WebdriverIO, Selenium, Puppeteer) is a plus
Nice to have
- Prior experience at an early-stage or growth-stage startup
- Exposure to performance, load, or security testing in Web3 contexts
- Contributions to open-source testing tools or frameworks
- Familiarity with blockchain explorers, event indexing, or subgraph testing
- Actual compensation may vary and may be higher or lower depending on individual circumstances.
