QA Automation Engineer (IntelliJ IDEA Java Build Tools)

At JetBrains, code is our passion. Ever since we started, back in 2000, we have been striving to make the strongest, most effective developer tools on earth. By automating routine checks and corrections, our tools speed up production, freeing developers and businesses to grow, discover, and create.

IntelliJ IDEA revolutionized the Java development tool market back in 2001, becoming the first IDE to offer automated code refactoring. It continues to drive innovation in software development, making thousands of programmers more productive every day. In addition to Java, IntelliJ IDEA includes various development tools for other prominent languages such as Ruby, Groovy, Scala, Python, JavaScript, Objective-C, PHP, and Kotlin.

We're now looking for a QA Automation Engineer to join the IntelliJ IDEA Java Build Tools QA team and help ensure the quality of a product that our customers and software engineers around the world rely on daily.

You'll work alongside QA engineers to design and set up our automation process for Gradle and Maven end-to-end tests, as well as implement and automate test scenarios that catch issues before they reach our users.

•Design, develop, and maintain multi-platform and environmental (Linux, Windows, MacOS, Docker, WSL) automated test scenarios.

•Expand test coverage for new and existing functionality.

•Participate in release quality assessments.

•Collaborate with QA and developers to define test strategies.

•Do manual QA activities when needed.

•Participate in the test documentation creation.

•Improve domain-specific test infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines within your team's scope.

•Share automation best practices with the team.

•Work with the tooling team to adopt new frameworks and practices.
