  • Accelerate delivery through automation and data excellence by strengthening Selenium/Playwright and API automation frameworks while implementing reliable test data creation, masking, and refresh strategies across multi-org Summit environments.
  • Reduce production risk and defects by validating accounting data, payment flows, end-to-end workflows, integrations, and data integrity using SQL and API testing, while proactively identifying issues early in the Agile lifecycle.
  • Strengthen QA maturity and team capability by mentoring junior QA engineers, driving best practices in quality engineering, and continuously improving QA processes, standards, and reporting through Azure DevOps.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 6+ years of experience in software quality assurance, ideally with at least 3+ years testing Summit applications.
  • Strong understanding of Summit platform architecture, including standard objects, custom objects, flows, validation rules, and integrations.
  • Experience creating comprehensive test plans, test cases, and test scripts for core Summit functionality.
  • Proficiency in SQL for backend data validation, troubleshooting, and verifying data integrity across objects.
  • Hands on experience with API testing (REST) using Postman or similar tools.
  • Ability to validate end to end workflows, data flows, and system integrations with upstream and downstream systems.
  • Familiarity with Summit environments, release cycles, and deployment processes.
  • Strong knowledge of defect logging and tracking using Azure DevOps, Jira, or similar platforms.
  • Experience with object-oriented programming languages such as C#, C++, Python.
  • Experience with test automation using Selenium or Playwright for Summit UI testing.
  • Experience with API automation (e.g.,RestSharp, RestAssured).
  • Experience working with BDD frameworks (e.g., SpecFlow, Cucumber).
  • In-depth understanding of Summit architecture, data model, and security concepts.
  • Knowledge of Summit-specific testing challenges, including multi-org environments and complex integrations.
  • Familiarity with API testing tools and techniques (e.g., REST/SOAP validation).
  • Strong understanding of test data management concepts and best practices.
  • Ability to analyze complex business requirements and translate them into effective test scenarios.
  • Promised ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment with a “bias for action” and operating proactively.
  • Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with product owners, developers, and business analysts.
  • Ability to ensure thorough regression, functional, integration, performance, load, and UAT test coverage for Summit releases.
