Job Description
Job Title: Software Engineer - Cloud Native, Automation
Location: Northbrook, IL
Department: E-Commerce IT Team
Employment Type: Full-Time
About the Role
We are looking for a seasoned Software Engineer - Test Automation (QA) to join our E-commerce B2B team. In this role, you'll drive the future of test engineering by contributing to core automation initiatives and enabling frameworks, tools, and platforms that accelerate quality across our teams.
This is not a traditional QA role. We're looking for a full-stack automation expert who is passionate about tooling, platforms, and frameworks, capable of evaluating and implementing cutting-edge solutions-including AI-powered test platforms, low-code/no-code test tools, building PoCs, and influencing architecture-level decisions. Our application stack includes Java/Spring Boot microservices on the backend and Next.js/React on the frontend, all deployed to Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).
Key Responsibilities
- Design, implement, and maintain reusable automation frameworks for backend (API/microservices) and frontend (UI) testing.
- Research, evaluate, and introduce modern test automation tools (e.g., low-code/no-code, model-based testing, AI-powered test platforms).
- Lead proofs-of-concept (PoCs) for new tools and frameworks to assess fit for the organization, enable and simplify shift-left practices within teams.
- Contribute to shared quality tooling and pipelines to be used across teams (test orchestration, data setup, mocks/stubs, parallelization, etc.).
- Collaborate with Digital Framework, platform, DevOps, and other engineering teams to shift quality left and define testability patterns.
- Provide leadership in setting up automation standards, coding guidelines, and governance models for cross-team reuse.
- Lead teams to ensure maximum automation coverage for functionality and be accountable for ensuring QA practices are aligned to the goal of maximum quality.
- Accountable for overall QA deliverables, practices, and standards within teams and for compliance with functional, integration, regression and performance/load testing (NFR testing) goals for all systems and projects worked on by the teams.
- Actively mentor junior engineers and guide teams in adopting quality engineering best practices.
- 8+ years of experience in Quality Engineering, with deep expertise in test automation.
- Strong in all aspects of SDLC and Testing Lifecycle.
- Strong programming skills in Java (Spring Boot stack) and JavaScript/TypeScript (React/Next.js).
- Experience building automation frameworks using JUnit/TestNG, Cypress, Playwright, Selenium, etc.
- Proficiency in evaluating and implementing tools for test case management, test execution, and reporting.
- Demonstrated success with CI/CD-integrated testing using Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or equivalent.
- Knowledge of Kubernetes, containers, and testing in cloud-native environments (preferably Azure).
- Familiarity with contract testing, mocking services, and management strategies.
- Strong background and experience working in Agile teams.
- Experience with low-code/no-code automation platforms such as Testim, Tricentis Tosca, Mabl, or Katalon.
- Exposure to AI/ML-based testing, self-healing tests, or model-based test generation.
- Understanding of platform thinking and working in centralized enablement teams.
- Hands-on experience with observability and monitoring tools for test impact analysis.
- Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field is required.
- Be a key contributor to the transformation of Medline's e-commerce platform.
- Access opportunities for growth, training, and certifications.
- Competitive salary, comprehensive benefits, and flexible work arrangements.
- Collaborate with a dynamic and innovative team in a supportive culture.
