Collaborate with QA and Development to embed automation **JOIN OUR TEAM** BetWarrior is a next\-generation digital gaming company with a bold mission: to redefine the way people experience sports betting and casino entertainment across Latin America. With a dynamic and diverse team, deep market insights, and cutting\-edge technology, we're creating an experience that is personalized, responsible, and always player\-first. Great people, bold ideas, and a sharp focus on user experience set us apart. **About the role** We're looking for a **Senior QA Automation Engineer** to own and scale our end\-to\-end automation suite for web and Android. This is a foundational hire for our automation strategy: you'll be the technical reference for the framework, define the standards the team will build on, and drive our regression suite from today's early\-stage coverage toward full CI/CD\-integrated automation. You'll work side by side with the QA Leader and the development teams, and will directly shape how the next Automation Engineer we hire works. **In this role, you'll** * Own, evolve, and harden the automation framework (Playwright for web, Appium \+ WebDriverIO for Android), building on the existing base and structuring it following the Page Object Model. * Design, implement, and maintain end\-to\-end automated tests as part of our release cycles. * Integrate automated test suites into CI/CD pipelines (ideally Jenkins), including triggering, reporting, and gating releases on test results. * Define the automated regression strategy: select and prioritize critical flows to cover, and set the roadmap to grow coverage toward our target of 80% of the regression suite automated. * Set the technical standards and best practices (selectors, config management, environment variables, folder structure) that future team members will follow. * Analyze test run results, identify false positives, report bugs with clear evidence, and follow up until resolution. * Work with Git in a collaborative branching workflow (pull requests, test code reviews). * Document test cases, technical decisions, and framework best practices. * Collaborate closely with QA and Development to embed automation early in the delivery lifecycle and ensure smooth, consistent player experiences across devices. * Provide clear, ongoing reporting on automation progress, coverage milestones, and risks to stakeholders. * Estimate and deliver assigned work reliably and to a high standard. **What we look for in an exceptional candidate** * 5\+ years of experience in QA, with at least 3 years focused specifically on test automation (not manual testing with occasional automation exposure). * Solid, hands\-on experience with JavaScript — our automation project is entirely in JS. * Proven experience writing and maintaining web tests with Playwright. * Experience with mobile automation on Android using Appium \+ WebDriverIO. * Strong experience structuring automation frameworks with the Page Object Model. * Experience integrating automated test suites into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins or similar) — this is a core requirement, not a nice\-to\-have. * Fluent with Git: version control, branching strategies, and collaborative workflows (PRs, code review). * Strong command of web selectors (XPath, getByRole, getByText) and criteria for choosing robust, low\-maintenance selectors. * Experience managing environment variables and configuration across multiple environments. * Comfortable defining test strategy and coverage priorities, not just executing an existing plan. * Strong analytical and problem\-solving skills, with the ability to work independently and set technical direction for others to follow. * Excellent communication skills in written and spoken English. Spanish and/or Portuguese a plus. **Bonus points if you also have** * Basic Android knowledge: ADB, emulators, installing and managing APKs. * Experience with non\-functional/API testing tools such as Postman or SoapUI. * Familiarity with Zephyr, X\-Ray, or similar JIRA test\-management plugins, plus Jira and Confluence. * Prior experience in the gaming, betting, or fintech industry. * Experience mentoring or setting standards for other QA/automation engineers. **How we do things** BetWarrior is a company in expansion. The team is fast\-moving, collaborative, and demanding — with high standards for quality and a genuine commitment to building something that lasts. We are not looking for someone to fill a seat.

For the right person, this is an opportunity to join at a stage where your contribution is visible, your growth is real, and the path forward is defined by what you deliver — not by time in role. **We expect every team member to live our values** **Accountability \& Ownership –** Take charge, own your craft **Reliability –** Deliver with quality and consistency **Teamwork –** Collaborate, challenge, and grow together **Winner Spirit –** Compete with purpose and grit **Wellbeing –** Build a career that energizes you **Curiosity \& Innovation –** Keep questioning.
