Software Development Engineer in Test

Job description

DESCRIPTION

Are you an SDET or quality-minded SDE who's up for a challenge? Amazon is growing fast globally and in order for the company to continue to succeed, we must have robust internal tools that scale with the growth of the workforce.

Amazon People Technology is migrating its core human capital management (HCM) software to Workday. In the process of this migration, the team is building out a software ecosystem and configuring Amazon's business processes to allow us to transition smoothly. We are looking for an experienced SDE that will build the ecosystem and configuration needed to migrate and scale Amazon's workforce in Workday while maintaining and improving our service to employees. Our ideal team members thrive in a rapidly changing environment, relish finding and stretching system limits, enjoy the challenge of highly complex business contexts (that are typically being defined in real-time), and, above all else, are passionate builders of consistent, scalable, and maintainable automation frameworks and tools.

You are willing to insist on the highest standards for quality, maintainability, performance, and user experience. You will define and evolve the teams' methodologies for updating Workday configuration and integrations at a fast pace with no user disruptions. You will own the goals and roadmap of our Workday implementation to meet the needs of Amazon's global workforce. You will demonstrate strong leadership as you control your own destiny in Amazon's ownership oriented culture.

People Tech QA isn't about the job of "adding test cases," but about creating a scalable quality infrastructure into which all engineers contribute tests. Since you recognize that software created for automation is still software, you'll ensure your team follows standard development process, from requirements through release.

We're looking for SDETs who are hungry to build things from scratch, leverage existing solutions, and who can bring next-generation test automation technologies into a fresh new space. We're looking to move fast; our SDETs will implement test frameworks and pipelines, then train up Dev teams in their care and maintenance so that continuous quality can be self-sustaining. SDETs will implement automatic data collection for use in live quality dashboards. Want a challenge where you can Think Big? You'll be able to engage with multiple internal teams on collaborative automation solutions, helping People Tech drive toward seamless, trustworthy employee data integrations. Be a key part of delivering a great user experience to Amazon employees.
· Project test plan creation and execution.

· Collaborating with dev teams and your team peers to identify and prioritize opportunities for automation.
· Building and debugging automation
