Senior Software Engineer in Test

Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs

This Senior Software Engineer in Test role sits in a mature SaaS environment where reliability is a product feature, not a back-office concern. With Genesys Cloud positioned as an AI-powered experience orchestration platform, quality engineering has to cover both classic web and API surfaces and the operational realities of cloud delivery, where regressions can affect large customer estates quickly.

For a SaaS career, the work builds durable leverage: designing automation frameworks, strengthening cloud-based test infrastructure, and tying tests into CI/CD pipelines. That combination maps closely to how modern SaaS teams ship, monitor, and harden software, and it develops fluency across microservices-style architectures, containerized runtimes, and DevOps-adjacent practices. Experience with performance and exploratory testing also signals an emphasis on validating behavior under real usage patterns, a recurring theme in subscription products.

The role fits engineers who prefer coding-led quality ownership rather than manual test execution, and who like partnering with developers and DevOps to influence delivery outcomes. It also suits someone comfortable operating across layers, from UI automation to API validation, and interested in applying pragmatic testing approaches to AI-adjacent product areas.
