Full Job Description
TTEC Digital seeks a Sr. QA/SDET Engineer to join our team. This role is a full-time and fully remote opportunity!

The work:

We're an innovation group inside TTEC (NASDAQ: TTEC), building the next generation of AI CX tools - automated QA, conversational analytics, knowledge assist, and agentic automation - for the world's biggest brands and the millions of customers they serve. We move like an early-stage startup, backed by the scale, distribution, and enterprise client base of a company that's been obsessed with customer experience since 1982.

This is the rare seat where getting in early actually matters at scale. TTEC is a public company at an AI inflection point. Ship the right products into thousands of live enterprise deployments and you don't just move a metric - you move the trajectory of the company and the value of the stock. The leverage is real, and the work compounds.

Who we hire - the DNA

  • Self-starters and do-ers with grit - hackers in the best sense, with a startup mentality and a show-me bias: working software over slides, prototypes over proposals.


  • Want to learn, love new technology. This platform is built on the latest technology, and that technology changes and advances monthly. You adapt to change quickly - new tools, new models, new priorities - without drama.


  • Master debuggers and problem solvers. You love solving complex problems, you think outside the box, and you multitask across domains without losing the thread.


  • AI-native. You work with AI on all levels - you understand the technology around you (LLMs, SLMs, RAG, knowledge graphs, agents, training, eval) and you use AI tools daily to exponentially increase your velocity.


  • Distributed-systems literate. High-efficiency, event-driven, low-latency systems are our world; you understand what that demands.


  • Innovators who ship. You demonstrate ideas easily, fail fast, and move forward. You make committed timelines and hit them.


  • You consider yourself exceptional - and you like winning. So do we.


No one will have everything in this description. We're looking for well-rounded, smart people who move fast.

What You Will Do:

The role:
  • Automation-first quality engineering for a platform combining voice, desktop, intelligence, and AI.
  • We emphasize AUTOMATION - we do not do manual QA here.
  • Weekly code deploys are the heartbeat: when a QA branch is ready, regressions run fast, results report fast, and the train doesn't wait.
  • Startup environment: 1-week sprints, fail fast, move forward.


What you'll own:
  • Automation coverage for your squads' services
  • Fast-turnaround regression suites gating weekly deploys •
  • Rapid detection and reporting
  • Quality signal in minutes, not days
  • Load/stress coverage for your services' latency budgets
  • Your committed timelines.


Who you are:
  • Self-starter with grit and a show-me mentality.
  • You consider yourself exceptional, love new technology, adapt fast when the stack changes under you, and use AI tools daily to multiply velocity - including AI-assisted test generation.
  • A team player who likes winning, and a partner to dev, not a gate: when something breaks, you help the dev team isolate it fast.


What You Will Bring:

  • 5+ years SDET; writes real automation code (Go / Python), not manual scripts. Automation-first is a conviction, not a preference.


  • Master issue-isolator and root-cause debugger - you narrow a failure to the service, the commit, the event; dev teams love your bug reports because they're half the debugging done.


  • Fast regression discipline - parallelized suites, smart test selection, results in minutes; quality at weekly-deploy speed without becoming the bottleneck.


  • Comfortable in high-load testing environments - load, stress, and soak testing of high-throughput, low-latency systems; you know how to find the knee of the curve.


  • Experience testing event-driven systems, WebSocket flows, and browser extensions - ordering, race conditions, real-time state.


  • CI-native mindset - tests wired into trunk-based CI/CD; flake management as a first-class discipline (a flaky suite is a broken suite).


  • Contract/API testing between services; synthetic data and traffic generation (simulated calls, event streams, audio) for repeatable real-time testing.


  • Testing AI outputs - eval-style assertions for non-deterministic LLM/ML features - a strong plus.
