The Role
As an SDET 2 at AiDASH, you will own the quality of the AI-powered applications behind our offerings. You will understand application requirements and architecture, then build test strategies that cover both functional behaviour and performance. Your work will include API automation using Java and RestAssured, data validation, performance testing with tools like JMeter, and monitoring application health after release. Success means shipping reliable, high-performing applications that help our teams deliver faster.
How you'll make an impact:
Requirements understanding & test strategy
Understand requirements, design, and architecture of Platform applications and data-processing solutions that power most AiDASH applications.
Coverage & test design
Analyze functional and non-functional requirements from a coverage and impact perspective.
Design effective, efficient test cases and trace them to acceptance criteria.
API & framework automation
Write robust, maintainable API automation in Java using rest-assured, plus supporting tools/scripts that improve test efficiency.
Contribute to automation framework enhancements driven by project needs.
Data validation across the stack
Perform data validation across APIs, databases (Postgres, MongoDB), and outputs of data-processing solutions.
Cross-layer debugging
Debug issues across application and infrastructure layers — not only API or UI (services, queues, DBs, K8s, AWS, pipeline outputs).
Performance testing
Conduct performance testing and benchmarking using tools such as JMeter.
Test data & context switching
Prepare test data for QA validations by coordinating across teams and ramping quickly across contexts.
CI/CD & reporting
Build and maintain automation pipelines with Jenkins (or equivalent) and report with Allure.
Production / ops quality
Monitor post-production health and alerts; work with Kubernetes and AWS to check service health and logs.
Defect lifecycle & collaboration
Document and manage defects end-to-end, perform root cause analysis, and coordinate with Test and Development to resolve issues.
Beyond traditional STLC execution, you will design, operate, and continuously improve agentic AI workflows that guide discovery, test planning, automation authoring, execution, triage, reporting, and production validation so quality is consistent, auditable, and faster without skipping governance
What we're looking for:
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent from a reputed university with good academic results is preferred
Hands-on experience testing backend applications, with strong skills in API testing and data validation testing
Hands-on experience in API automation using Java and RestAssured, and/or Python scripting, with a good understanding of test frameworks
Experience in performance testing using tools like JMeter
Hands-on experience with databases like Postgres and MongoDB, and writing queries for data validation
Knowledge of AWS services and experience working with Kubernetes clusters for checking service health and logs
Understanding of queues and caching
Strong attention to detail and curiosity to understand the internal workings of software
Good analytical skills and decision making ability, with the ability to work in a team as well as an individual
Ability to work under pressure and maintain deadlines
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Good to have: gRPC basics, Airflow DAGs, web application testing and automation using Selenium/Playwright, knowledge of testing and validating ML/AI based applications, and use of AI tools and editors for increased velocity of work
