Veza is looking to solve the blind spots of traditional identity tools by ingesting and organizing permissions metadata in the Veza Authorization Graph, and needs a Senior SDET to ensure the quality of their enterprise-grade security and identity software through robust test automation strategies and tooling.
Requirements
- Proficiency in a modern programming language (e.g., Go, Java, Python, or JavaScript) for test automation.
- Experience building and maintaining test frameworks for REST APIs, microservices, and backend systems.
- Solid understanding of testing methodologies: unit, integration, performance, and end-to-end.
- Familiarity with identity and access management (IAM) concepts and protocols such as OAuth2, SAML, SCIM, and Zero Trust.
- Experience with containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes) and cloud services (AWS, GCP, or Azure).

- Experience working in Linux environments and using tools like curl, jq, traceroute, tcpdump, etc.
Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain scalable automated tests for backend services, APIs, and integrations.
- Implement comprehensive test strategies covering functional, performance, integration, and security use cases.
- Perform manual testing of new features in early development cycles to validate functionality, usability, and edge cases before automation is in place.
- Contribute to shift-left testing by working closely with developers to embed quality into design and development workflows.
- Build automated regression suites into CI/CD pipelines to support continuous deployment.
- Investigate, triage, and debug complex issues in production and test environments.
- Drive root cause analysis of test failures and production defects.
Other
- 5+ years of experience as an SDET, QA automation engineer, or equivalent software engineering in test role.
