At JetBrains, code is our passion. Ever since we started, back in 2000, we have strived to make the strongest, most effective developer tools on earth. By automating routine checks and corrections, our tools speed up production, freeing developers to grow, discover, and create.
Are you an experienced QA Automation Engineer who wants to be responsible for automation quality end to end and influence how testing is done in a fast-growing product? Would you like your work to directly impact the experience of millions of developers worldwide?
Then you should join the driven team in charge of the Toolbox App.
The Toolbox App centralizes the management of all JetBrains IDEs and development tools, completely reimagining how developers discover, install, and update their software. With effortless version management and project linking, developers can focus purely on coding, with the added benefit of a clean, organized system.
The application is written in Kotlin, leveraging modern features and libraries, including:
- Coroutines for asynchronous operations
- kRPC and kotlinx.serialization for the API
- Compose Multiplatform for the UI
As our user base is growing significantly, we are strengthening our automation strategy to ensure high confidence, stability, and scalability, and we’re looking for a Senior QA Automation Engineer to help us achieve this goal.
In this role, you will:
- Take ownership of the product’s test automation strategy.
- Design, write, and improve maintainable automated tests that are closely integrated with the product code. In most cases, this will require a deep understanding of the new functionality being tested.
- Ensure high test coverage for critical functionality, as well as the long-term stability of the test suite.
- Help stabilize flaky tests and improve overall test reliability.
- Actively participate in building and improving test infrastructure and tooling.
- Monitor build configurations with autotests, analyzing test failures and results in TeamCity and identifying bugs (by reviewing logs and commits).
- Collaborate closely with developers to identify issues early and improve testability.
- Report issues in YouTrack and verify that fixes work across relevant branches.
We'd love for you to join our team if you have:
- Established experience with test automation in complex products.
- Strong programming skills in Kotlin and/or Java.
- Experience with JUnit.
- Deep understanding of test design, test architecture, and test stability.
- The ability to understand other people's code (both test and product code).
- The ability to grasp new concepts quickly and to work both independently and as part of a team.
- Experience building automated testing infrastructure and processes.
- Proactive mindset, with the ability to spot weak points in testing and suggest improvements.
- Strong analytical skills and the ability to investigate failures, logs, and CI issues independently.
- Good communication skills and enthusiasm for supporting other automation engineers.
We'd be particularly thrilled if you have:
- Experience with performance or security testing.
- Experience testing desktop or multiplatform applications.
- Experience working with CI/CD systems (TeamCity or similar).
If this sounds like a project you’d like to be a part of, we’d love to hear from you!
