Senior QA

About us

Appnovation is a global, full-service digital partner that combines Strategy, Experience & Design, Engineering and Managed Services. We build digital solutions that deliver real impact today and serve as foundations for future growth. Bold ambition. Practical action. Endless possibilities.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a skilled Senior QA Engineer to join our team and own the quality assurance function across an active Agile delivery engagement. Reporting to the Delivery/Engineering Lead, you will be responsible for continuous test automation that runs in parallel with sprint development cycles — ensuring that every feature shipped is reliable, secure, and production-ready.

Your primary focus will span three core areas: UI automation using Cypress, API validation using Postman, and security/compliance validation through Veracode scanning. Beyond ongoing sprint support, you will serve as the dedicated QA resource during the client's formal User Acceptance Testing (UAT) phase — triaging defects, driving bug resolution, and delivering quick-fixes under real-world acceptance pressure.

This role suits a QA professional who takes ownership of quality end-to-end, can operate autonomously within a fast-moving delivery team, and understands that great QA is as much about preventing issues as catching them.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Must-Have

• 4+ years of experience in software QA with a strong focus on test automation in Agile/Scrum environments

• Hands-on proficiency with Cypress for UI/end-to-end test automation, including test suite architecture and maintenance

• Demonstrated experience with Postman for API testing, including collection design, environment management, and automated assertions

• Working knowledge of Veracode or equivalent SAST/DAST tools for vulnerability scanning and security validation pre-release

• Experience executing QA activities concurrently with sprint development — not just at the end of the cycle

• Proven ability to triage, prioritize, and resolve defects rapidly during UAT phases under client-facing pressure

Nice-to-Have

• Experience integrating test automation into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or similar)

• Familiarity with coding standards review and quality gates as part of a release checklist

• Exposure to OWASP or other security testing frameworks

WHO YOU ARE

• Proactive by default — you don't wait to be handed a test plan; you identify gaps, build coverage, and raise risks before they become issues

• Detail-oriented under pressure — you maintain rigor during high-stakes phases like UAT without sacrificing speed or client confidence

• A clear communicator — you can translate a failing test or a Veracode flag into plain language that developers, PMs, and clients can act on

• Sprint-native — you think in iterations, adapt quickly to shifting priorities, and know how to balance thoroughness with delivery velocity

• Ownership-driven — you treat quality as your accountability, not a shared afterthought, and take pride in clean, confident releases

• Collaborative but independent — you work closely with developers and product teams, but you don't need hand-holding to deliver
