Overview: Quality and Test Automation

The Automation QA Engineer is vital for ensuring the reliability, performance, and correctness of our entire supply chain e-commerce platform. You will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining comprehensive automated test suites across the e-commerce user interface, complex internal business workflows (MES, WMS, OMS), and the logic governing our next-generation AI agents.

Internship Details

Duration: 3 months

Start Date: Immediate

Location: Remote

Stipend: None initially. Based on your first-quarter performance, you may be offered a paid full-time opportunity, or even be absorbed directly by the client as an FTE.

Key Responsibilities & Core Projects

You will embed quality assurance directly into the development and deployment lifecycle, serving as the gatekeeper for production releases.

• Test Suite Development: Develop and maintain robust, end-to-end automated test suites covering critical e-commerce flows (catalog navigation, checkout, payments, invoicing) and complex internal tool workflows (OMS/WMS operations).

• Quality Gates (CI/CD): Integrate automated test suites into the CI/CD pipeline (managed via Makefile) to enforce quality gates, ensuring no regressions are introduced and the platform adheres to performance standards before deployment.

• Performance & Load Testing: Implement and execute performance testing and load testing protocols to validate the scalability and resilience of the NestJS modular monolith, especially for high-traffic scenarios and intensive SCM transactions.

• API Integration Testing: Design and execute automated tests for API integrations between the core supply chain modules (e.g., testing the data contract integrity between WMS and OMS) and external payment services.

• Test Data Management: Create and maintain reliable test data factories to simulate complex multi-tenant and domain-specific scenarios (e.g., various HS codes, tenant feature flags).

• Regression Management: Continuously maintain and optimize the regression test suite to provide fast, reliable feedback to development teams operating within the Monorepo structure.

Required Technologies & Tools

Candidates must possess strong expertise in automated testing frameworks, CI/CD integration, and performance validation:

• Automation Frameworks: Experience selecting, building, and maintaining E2E (e.g., Playwright, Cypress) and API testing frameworks.

• Programming: Strong proficiency in TypeScript and Node.js for writing high-quality, maintainable test code.

• Performance/Load: Experience with tools for performance and load testing (e.g., JMeter, K6).

• CI/CD: Practical experience integrating tests into automated pipelines and working within a Monorepo environment.

• Data & Database: Ability to query PostgreSQL 15 directly to validate data integrity.

AI Agent Focus

You will be responsible for validating the behavior and accuracy of our AI systems.

• Agent Behavior Testing: Develop tests to validate the deterministic and non-deterministic behaviors of AI agents, ensuring they accurately process inputs, access data securely, and perform their intended functions (e.g., workflow optimization, customer support responses).

• Integration Validation: Verify the quality of data retrieval and the security of the API layers connecting AI agents (using LangChain/LlamaIndex) to the core WMS/OMS data.

Success Metrics & Career Path

Performance will be measured by:

• Test Coverage: Measurable increase in automated functional and regression test coverage across critical application paths.

• Defect Escape Rate: Reduction in the number of critical and high-severity defects escaping to production.

• Pipeline Reliability: Maintenance of stable, non-flaky test runs within the CI/CD pipeline.

Mentorship Structure: Reports to the Technical Architect or Engineering Lead, working directly with development teams across the Catalog, OMS, and WMS modules.
