About this role
Experience: 5–10 Years
Location: Madrid
The Mission
We aren't looking for script-runners or button-clickers. We are hiring two Test Automation Specialists to build the architectural backbone of our quality ecosystem.
Our product ecosystem is expanding fast, and we need engineers who treat quality assurance as a discipline of software engineering. You won't just find bugs—you’ll engineer systems that prevent them. If you have the technical maturity to choose the right tool for the job, the discipline to write clean and maintainable code, and the foresight to build for long-term scalability rather than quick fixes, this role is built for you.
What You’ll Be Building & Driving
Framework Architecture from Scratch: Design and implement modular, reusable, and parallelized test automation frameworks across Web and Mobile that scale effortlessly.
Cross-Platform End-to-End Coverage: Architect seamless test flows that cross boundaries between our web and mobile applications.
Shift-Left Engineering: Embed automated testing directly into our CI/CD pipelines, establishing continuous feedback loops before code ever hits staging.
Quality Standards & Code Discipline: Set the bar for automated code reviews, maintain pristine test repositories, and build comprehensive documentation.
Strategic Enhancement: Audit existing manual bottlenecks, identify high-ROI automation targets, and champion execution speed while eliminating flakiness.

What Makes You a Great Fit
5–10 years of dedicated test automation experience with a proven track record of designing frameworks from scratch.
Strong programming foundation in Python, Java, or TypeScript with a focus on design patterns and clean code.
Expertise in building suites that support parallel execution, detailed reporting, and effortless maintenance.
A proactive, inquisitive approach to software quality—you look at systems holistically to find failure points before users do.
Bonus Points
Performance Testing: Experience with tools like JMeter, k6, or Gatling.
Security Testing: Understanding of automated vulnerability scanning and security test practices.
Next-Gen QA: Hands-on curiosity or experience using AI agents and machine learning tools for smart test generation and maintenance.
