Benefits

Qualifications

• 5+ years of QA/test engineering experience, with significant focus on Salesforce platforms in production environments.
• Deep Salesforce platform knowledge, including hands-on experience testing Service Cloud, Sales Cloud, Apex triggers and classes, Visualforce pages, Lightning Web Components, Flows, and platform events.
• Strong automation engineering skills, including writing clean, maintainable test code. Proficiency in Python is expected; experience with Playwright, Copado Robot Testing, or comparable Salesforce-aware frameworks is a strong plus.
• CI/CD fluency, comfortable integrating automated tests into GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, or ArgoCD-based pipelines.
• Integration testing experience, including designing and executing tests across REST/SOAP APIs, event-driven architectures (Kafka/Confluent), and data pipelines (Snowflake or similar).
• Jira proficiency, with experience in defect lifecycle management, sprint hygiene, and Agile/Kanban workflows.
• Strong analytical instincts and ability to translate ambiguous requirements into rigorous, actionable test strategies.
• Clear, direct communication skills to articulate risk, coverage gaps, and quality decisions to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Collaborative nature, comfortable working across development, product, and platform teams, and willing to push back constructively when quality is at risk.
• Experience working in regulated iGaming, fintech, or compliance-sensitive environments (AGCO/iGO, AML/KYC workflows, or similar) is a plus.
• Familiarity with Salesforce Data Cloud, Agentforce, or Einstein features and their testing considerations is a plus.
• Exposure to sensitive data handling, masking, or PII/PCI compliance testing in Salesforce contexts is a plus.
• Salesforce certification (e.g., Salesforce Administrator, Platform Developer I, or equivalent) is a plus.
• Experience with Gearset or other Salesforce DevOps tooling is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Own test automation strategy and execution across Salesforce environments, including Classic, Lightning, and complex third-party integrations.
• Design and build automated test suites using tools like Playwright, Copado Robot Testing, simple-salesforce, or Behave, integrating them into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions / GitLab CI / ArgoCD).
• Lead regression, smoke, functional, UAT, integration, and performance testing for Salesforce customizations (Apex, Visualforce, Lightning Web Components, Flow automation).
• Engage in requirements and design sessions early to challenge assumptions and identify risks.
• Champion testability in code reviews, providing feedback on Apex, LWC, and integration code for quality and coverage.
• Validate data integrity across the platform, including Salesforce records, reports, dashboards, Data Cloud pipelines, and integration payloads.
• Log, triage, and track defects in Jira, ensuring clear reproduction steps and collaborating with developers for resolution.
• Define and maintain test documentation standards, including test plans, test cases, automation scripts, coverage matrices, and results reports.
• Mentor and guide junior QA contributors and developers on automation best practices, test design patterns, and quality-first thinking.
• Stay current with Salesforce releases, evaluate new features and deprecations for test impact, and recommend improvements.
