Job Description

The Senior Software Tester – AI Capabilities will be responsible for validating and testing AI‑enabled functionality within mission‑critical enterprise applications. This role is 100% focused on testing and works closely with developers to ensure AI capabilities are reliable, performant, and production‑ready in complex, regulated environments.

The tester will be heavily involved in validating AI capabilities and AI platforms, requiring testing approaches that accommodate non‑deterministic behavior where the same inputs may not always produce the same outputs.

-Test AI-enabled application capabilities across enterprise systems

-Design and execute test strategies for non-deterministic systems
-Perform various forms of testing, including: Mutation testing, Performance and load testing, Acceptance testing

-Execute both manual testing and automation‑supported testing approaches
-Utilize TestCafe for test automation, including: Recording test flows, Generating and maintaining test code from recorded scenarios
-Identify defects, inconsistencies, and edge cases unique to AI-driven behavior
-Work closely with developers to ensure testing is integrated throughout the development lifecycle
-Document test cases, results, and findings clearly for engineering and stakeholder review
-Participate in agile ceremonies including sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives
