OUR PROJECT
The Lead Test Automation Engineer will support a major quality engineering initiative focused on accelerating automated testing for a large-scale Retail POS ecosystem. The project centers on designing and developing automated testing frameworks that validate critical use cases across POS terminals, card readers, keypads, screens, and fuel pumps. This effort is driven by the implementation of a robotics automation system that enables thousands of test permutations, reducing regression cycles from weeks to less than two days.
This is a long-term contract-to-hire position requiring full onsite presence in the Des Moines, IA (Ankeny) area. Competitive compensation will be provided.
