What does an automation QA engineer do?

An automation QA engineer writes code that tests your software automatically: UI tests with tools like Playwright, Cypress or Selenium, mobile tests with Appium, and API tests with Postman or REST Assured. These suites run in your CI/CD pipeline on every change, catching regressions in minutes instead of days.

FAQ

Hiring Automation QA Engineers: FAQs

Quick answers about our services, hiring models, timelines and support. Can't find what you're looking for?

Ask our experts

Which test automation tool is best?

Playwright is our default for modern web apps thanks to speed and reliability; Cypress and Selenium are used when they fit your existing setup; Appium covers mobile.

How long does it take to automate tests?

Critical user journeys can usually be automated within the first few weeks; coverage then grows sprint by sprint alongside new features.

Will automated tests slow down our releases?

No. They run in parallel in CI and give feedback in minutes, which speeds releases up by catching issues before manual QA.

How quickly can a developer start?

Once you share your requirements, we shortlist matching profiles for you to interview. After you select a developer, onboarding starts as soon as the engagement is confirmed: the exact date depends on the role and availability.

Can I interview the developers before hiring?

Yes. You review profiles and interview shortlisted developers yourself, including technical questions or a short task, before making a decision.

What if the developer isn't the right fit?

Tell us and we will discuss the gaps and propose a replacement developer with the right skills, keeping knowledge transfer smooth.

Who owns the code my hired developer writes?

You do. All source code and work produced for your project belongs to you.
