Intermediate Software Developer in Test (SDET)

About this role

Riva is looking for an Intermediate Software Developer in Test (SDET) who is passionate about building reliable, scalable automated testing solutions for modern cloud applications.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING

In this role, you’ll help improve product quality and deployment confidence by designing and maintaining automated test suites for our AWS-based SaaS platform and Outlook add-in integrations. You’ll work closely with developers, product owners, and platform teams to ensure new features are thoroughly tested and continuously validated through CI/CD pipeline automation.

We are especially interested in candidates with strong experience in Playwright test automation. While this role is primarily focused on automation engineering, you should also be comfortable performing exploratory, regression, and targeted manual testing when automation is not the most effective approach.

As a Software Developer in Test, your responsibilities will be centered around delivering the following outcomes:

• Reliable automated test coverage for critical workflows.

• Faster and safer deployments through CI/CD integrated testing.

• Improved deployment confidence and lower regression test failure rates.

• Clear, actionable defect reporting and strong engineering collaboration.

• Stable, maintainable, and scalable automated test systems.

• Build and scale automated testing. Design, develop, and maintain reliable and scalable automated test suites using Playwright and AccelQ (training is provided).

• Integrate testing into CI/CD pipelines. Integrate automated tests into deployment and release workflows.

• Investigate failures and improve quality.

• Monitor test execution results and improve pipeline quality signals.

• Troubleshoot failing tests, identify root causes, and analyze logs.

• Work closely with developers to resolve defects and improve system reliability.
