Kenverse is building AI-native products that power the next generation of experiences across education and enterprises. Our platforms combine agentic AI, modern cloud infrastructure, and scalable architectures to solve complex, real-world problems.

We are looking for a Quality Assurance Engineer (Automation) who is passionate about quality, loves breaking things in smart ways, and can help us ship reliable, high-performing products at speed.

What You’ll Do

• Automation First
• Design, develop, and maintain automation test suites using Selenium (Java) for web applications.
• Build and enhance mobile automation frameworks using Appium for Android and iOS.
• Own and improve API automation & validation using Postman (collections, environments, scripts; nice-to-have: Newman/CI integration).
• End-to-End Quality Ownership
• Perform manual functional, regression, and exploratory testing for new features, enhancements, and bug fixes.
• Translate product requirements and user journeys into clear test plans, test scenarios, and acceptance criteria.
• Participate actively in backlog grooming, sprint planning, and release readiness discussions.
• Defect & Process Management
• Identify, log, and track defects using Jira (or similar tools), and drive them to closure with dev and product teams.
• Contribute to and refine test strategies, test coverage metrics, and quality gates for releases.
• Maintain test documentation, test reports, and automation results in Git/GitHub and project repositories.
• Collaboration & DevOps Alignment
• Work closely with developers, QA leads, product managers, and DevOps to ensure smooth releases.
• Support integration of test suites into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions/Azure DevOps) for continuous testing.
• Provide clear quality signals (dashboards, reports, defect trends) for stakeholders.

Our Ideal Candidate

Must Have

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.
• 3–4 years of experience in software testing, with a mix of manual and automation.
• Strong hands-on experience with:
• Selenium (Java) for web automation.
• Appium for mobile test automation (Android and/or iOS).
• Postman for API testing (authorization, collections, test scripts, environment variables).
• Solid understanding of:
• STLC, SDLC, and defect life cycle management.
• Different test types: functional, regression, smoke/sanity, integration, and compatibility testing.
• Experience with Git/GitHub (branches, PRs, code reviews for test automation).
• Good analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
• Ability to work in an Agile/Scrum environment and handle fast-paced, iterative releases.

Good to Have (Bonus Points)

• MuleSoft Developer Certification (MCD Level 1 or above) or exposure to integration platforms.
• Experience testing large-scale SaaS products (multi-tenant, high-availability systems).
• Familiarity with Azure and/or AWS cloud fundamentals (environments, services basics).
• Understanding of asynchronous integrations, pub/sub models, and event-driven architectures.
• Knowledge of security standards and practices: OAuth, JWT, TLS, IP whitelisting, data protection basics.
• Exposure to observability & monitoring tools such as Splunk, New Relic, ELK/Elastic Stack, Datadog, etc.
• Prior experience in education technology or similar enterprise domains.

Why Join Kenverse?

• Impact from Day One: Work on high-impact, AI-driven products that empower universities, enterprises, and early-stage startups.
• Modern Tech Stack & Practices: Be part of a forward-looking engineering culture with automation-first QA, CI/CD, microservices, and observability.
• Growth & Learning: Access to continuous learning, challenging problem statements, and opportunities to grow into Senior QA / SDET / QA Lead roles.
• Balanced Culture: Experience a blend of startup agility and structured execution, working closely with product, engineering, and leadership teams.
• Ownership & Autonomy: Take real ownership of modules, automation frameworks, and quality strategy—not just execute test cases.
