At CI&T, we don’t just deliver digital experiences; we engineer quality into every product we ship. As part of our dynamic team, you’ll have the opportunity to safeguard the reliability, performance, and usability of end-to-end digital solutions for a diverse clientele, including some of Australia’s most well-known brands.

This role offers a unique opportunity to contribute to a major enterprise client's strategic initiative. You’ll embed automated testing, AI-assisted workflows, and modern test tooling into our delivery lifecycle, partnering across mobile, web, and platform teams to ensure quality is built in — not bolted on.

The ideal candidate will be part of a CI&T team working directly with clients. They will bring deep expertise in automated testing, hands-on experience with Playwright (web) and Maestro (mobile), and a working command of AI-driven workflows that accelerate test design, generation, and maintenance.

You will play a key role in defining test strategy, building automation frameworks, and validating quality across modern web applications, mobile apps, and broader digital ecosystems; projects that demand rigour.

• Execute integration, regression, and cross-browser or cross-device testing as required by the project.

• Own assigned testing tasks end-to-end, ensuring adequate coverage within agreed timelines and quality expectations.

• Provide testing estimates for features within your scope and flag risks that may affect delivery.

• Coordinate testing activities with developers and other QAs to avoid duplication and uncovered areas.
