Senior Test Automation Engineer

We are looking for a Senior Test Automation Engineer with strong technical and communication skills to contribute throughout the development lifecycle of products in various exciting domains, which are realized with Commencis’ expertise in a fast-paced team environment.

As a Senior Test Automation Engineer, you will collaborate closely with developers, product owners, and designers to ensure requirements are met with the expected level of quality, while contributing to the development and implementation of test automation as well as defining test strategy and scope. You will plan and execute testing processes within given constraints without compromising quality, performing both automated and, when needed, manual testing to ensure the product is reliable and fit for purpose, and you will also support cross-project test automation coordination and review activities to help standardize and continuously improve automation practices.

If you are curious by nature, adaptive, collaborative, and always one step ahead — and if you enjoy owning planning, budget, and delivery end-to-end — then join us and be a Commencer.
