Job Description
Description
We are seeking a visionary Senior AI-Driven QA Engineer to join our Access Server team.
In this role, you will transcend traditional testing by spearheading an AI-augmented quality strategy.
You won’t just find bugs; you will build intelligent, automated systems using Python and Playwright to ensure the rock-solid reliability of our networking products.
You will be the bridge between deep Linux, networking, and modern AI-driven testing approaches, moving our QA maturity from manual to an automated execution, proactive, and data-driven ecosystem.
Your Contribution Will Include:
AI-Driven Frameworks: Design and maintain a scalable automation framework using Python and Playwright, integrating AI tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor, Copilot, or custom LLM prompts) to accelerate script generation and maintenance.
Intelligent Network Testing: Develop automated tests for complex Access Server scenarios, including VPN tunneling, DNS leak protection, and protocol handshakes.
Automated Infrastructure: Leverage Python to automate the provisioning of Linux environments and Virtual Machines for consistent test execution on the most popular cloud providers (AWS, GCP).
Predictive Analysis: Use AI/ML techniques to analyze test results and system logs, identifying patterns that predict potential regressions before they reach production.
Important: This will be a long-term B2B contract role, not permanent employment.
Requirements
You’ll be a great fit if you have:
5+ years of experience in QA, with at least 3 years focused on Automation ( Python preferred).
Expertise in Playwright: Deep hands-on experience building robust UI and API automation suites using Python.
AI-Augmented Testing: Proven experience in writing code, designing prompt libraries, and building AI-assisted test generation pipelines.
Linux Mastery: Strong proficiency in Linux environments, including shell scripting and managing services like MySQL and authentication modules.
Deep Networking Knowledge: Strong understanding of TCP/IP, DNS, routing, and VPN technologies.
Cloud & Virtualization: Practical experience with AWS/Azure/GCP.
Bonus Points For:
Security Expertise: Knowledge of SAML, LDAP, PKI, and SSL certificate management.
Performance Engineering: Experience using performance tools for load and stress testing.
Our philosophy is that we are a small, closely-knit team, and we care deeply about you:
Competitive pay rates
Fully remote work environments
Self-managed time off.
Team trips and special events
