Senior QA Engineer - Claiming Experience

AirHelp

Kraków, Gdańsk or Warsaw, Poland

While this role includes exploratory testing, it moves beyond traditional manual QA, focusing heavily on automation and quality strategy. You will help evolve how quality is built, tested, observed, and owned. Working closely with developers, product managers, and stakeholders, you will improve confidence in daily deployments through automated and exploratory testing, modern observability practices, and AI-assisted workflows, while helping shape a pragmatic quality strategy for complex document and communication flows across our range of products. You will be collaborating closely with a team of 6 developers, with a tech stack that includes Typescript and Ruby.

What you’ll drive

Own and evolve the test automation strategy for critical Claiming Experience flows around Documents and Communication.
Design, build, and maintain reliable automated tests using tools such as Playwright, Postman/Bruno, and CI/CD pipelines.
Help shorten feedback loops by improving how quickly developers can validate changes before and after deployment.
Enable developers to take greater ownership of quality by introducing practical testing patterns, pairing on test design, and sharing best practices.
Use AI-assisted testing, AI agents, prompt-driven workflows, and automated investigation techniques to improve test generation, debugging, and regression analysis.
Improve quality observability by helping the team understand where failures happen, how often they happen, and what signals should trigger deeper investigation.
Collaborate with developers, product managers, and stakeholders to identify risk areas early and define the right level of testing for each product change.
