The role

What you'll do

Join the Test Automation Factory as a Senior QA Automation Engineer, serving as a technical leader and cornerstone of our Valencia-based team. Your mission is to define, oversee, and actively execute a robust automation strategy that ensures high-quality software delivery for the Digital Delivery Services (DDS) Home Healthcare (HHC) department.

Hands-on Development: Design, develop, and maintain automated test scripts for critical enterprise platforms, including SAP, Salesforce, and Dynamics 365, in-house web and mobile applications;
Team Coordination & Mentoring: Coordinate a team of engineers, assigning tasks, reviewing deliverables, and providing technical guidance to ensure high-quality outcomes. Act as the local "relay" of the Test Automation Factory Manager, ensuring alignment and seamless execution of global strategy within the Valencia team;
CI/CD Integration & Optimization: Monitor and optimize the seamless integration of automated testing tools into GitLab CI/CD pipelines and cloud environments (AWS);
Defect & Performance Management: Identify, document, and track defects collaboratively with development teams. Monitor team performance by tracking relevant operational KPIs such as test coverage and automation stability;
Stakeholder Collaboration: Collaborate with developers, operations teams, business analysts (BAs), and product owners (POs) to identify and assess automation opportunities across web, mobile, and API applications.

Soft Skills & Mindset

This profile requires a blend of leadership authority and an engineer's attention to detail:

Leadership: Proven ability to drive cross-functional collaboration, build consensus, and mentor junior team members;
Problem Solving: Strong analytical abilities to solve complex automation challenges and technical roadblocks;
Communication: Exceptional stakeholder management skills in English (Required) and Spanish (Highly Preferred), with French as a significant bonus.
