Senior QA & Test Automation Engineer (Gateway Services)

Genesis10 is currently seeking a Senior Quality Assurance Engineer - Onsite for a 6+ month contract-to-hire opportunity with our client in Alpharetta, GA 30009.

Compensation: $60.00 - 65.00 per hour, W2, depending on skill and experience level.

Summary

This is a hands-on, individual contributor role to support quality across transaction- and integration-heavy software products. You'll execute testing, expand automated regression coverage, and partner closely with engineering to improve release confidence and reduce defects. The work mix is automation-forward with hands-on manual validation as needed.

Responsibilities

• Execute functional, regression, and exploratory testing for complex systems, with strong attention to edge cases and failure modes.
• Design, build, and maintain automated test suites (reliable, maintainable, scalable).
• Develop and implement test strategies, test plans, and test cases aligned to requirements and risk.
• Analyze results, identify defects, and collaborate with developers to drive timely resolution and root-cause insights.
• Support performance and reliability validation where applicable; help interpret results and identify bottlenecks.
• Contribute to continuous improvement through peer reviews, test effectiveness improvements, and QA best practices.

Requirements

• 6+ years of hands-on QA experience (must be actively executing testing today; not oversight-only).
• 3+ years of automation testing experience building and maintaining automated suites.
• Experience testing APIs/services and integration-heavy systems (end-to-end scenario thinking and troubleshooting).
• Strong problem-solving and debugging skills; able to clearly explain testing approach and prior work.
• Experience working in Agile teams and collaborating across engineering/product stakeholders.
• Familiarity with CI/CD concepts and using automated tests to support delivery.

Only candidates available and ready to work directly as Genesis10 employees will be considered for this position.

Desired skills

• Automation experience using Selenium and/or Playwright.
• Strong scripting/coding ability (e.g., Java) and comfort working with test code.
• SQL proficiency for validation and data verification.
• Performance testing experience (2+ years preferred) or strong exposure to load/latency/throughput concepts.
• Familiarity with security-focused testing (authentication/authorization, negative testing, input validation).

The interview process may include live technical exercises (e.g., problem solving, automation concepts, and/or data validation).
