Senior Software Development Engineer in Test 

Job Description

ABOUT THE ROLE :

We are looking for a Senior SDET who can own automation across our web, API, and mobile (Android/iOS) ecosystems, and who is excited about pioneering AI within our testing workflows.

You won’t just run tests; you will help us transition into the future of QA – from AI-assisted test generation and self-healing locators to LLM-powered triage of production telemetry and errors.

You will work closely with development, product, and operations teams to build resilient, blazing-fast, and maintainable automation that keeps Practo’s release cycles short without compromising on healthcare-grade quality.

This is a hands-on engineering role with deep influence over test strategy, framework architecture, and how our global team adopts AI tooling responsibly.

WHAT YOU’LL DO :

– Architect Multi-Layer Frameworks: Design, build, and maintain high-performance automation frameworks across web (responsive/desktop), mobile (Android & iOS), and backend API layers.

– Own Quality End-to-End: Take complete ownership of test coverage for your product area – from initial test design and PR reviews to CI/CD integration and final release sign-off.

– Advance Framework Design: Implement and scale clean design patterns: Page Object Model (POM), screen/fragment scoping for mobile, contract-driven API testing (Swagger/OpenAPI), and ultra-robust locator strategies.

– Drive AI Innovation: Integrate AI/LLMs into the testing lifecycle (e.g., AI-assisted test case generation, self-healing locators, intelligent failure triage, and automated flakiness detection).

– Supercharge CI/CD: Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for automated regression and smoke suites; keep execution fast, parallelized, and highly reliable.

– Bridge Dev and Ops: Triage production errors and telemetry signals (e.g., Sentry, New Relic), correlate them with test gaps, and systematically drive coverage improvements.

– Metrics & Governance: Define and report critical quality metrics (bug-miss rate, bug ratio, SLA adherence, and automation coverage %) directly to engineering leadership.

– Mentor & Lead: Mentor mid-level and junior SDETs through code reviews, pair programming, and framework architectural guidance.

REQUIRED SKILLS & EXPERIENCE :

– 4+ years in professional test automation / SDET roles, with at least 2 years managing complex, multi-layer automation architectures (UI + API + Mobile).

– Strong Programming Fundamentals: High proficiency in Python (and/or Java/JavaScript) – writing clean, maintainable, and well-structured object-oriented test code.

– UI Automation: Expert-level experience with Playwright, Selenium, or Robot Framework, featuring advanced locator strategies.

– Mobile Ecosystems: Hands-on expertise with Appium for both Android and iOS, including handling fragments, accessibility identifiers, and device/emulator farm variability.

– API & Mocking: Deep understanding of REST testing, contract testing via Swagger/OpenAPI, and utilizing stubs/mocks for self-contained, isolated test suites.

– From-Scratch Blueprinting: Proven track record of designing test automation frameworks from the ground up, rather than just maintaining existing ones.

– CI/CD & DevOps: Solid grasp of Git, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and containerization concepts for test execution.
