We are looking for a
Freelance Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET)

scalable test automation and tooling

GLS/NXT was founded with the mission to build the next generation of logistic experiences driven by technology - core, adjacent & beyond. More specifically, our sphere of interest is the Logistics and eCommerce sector. We are entrepreneurs and hence always start with the user's needs.

Aufgaben

  • Develop reusable test frameworks and libraries in collaboration with backend engineers
  • Maintain test coverage across multiple services, ensuring data consistency and reliability
  • Contribute to CI/CD pipelines, integrating automated tests to run at every stage (build, deploy, release)
  • Investigate and reproduce complex backend issues, analyzing logs, metrics, and traces to isolate root causes
  • Continuously improve test infrastructure and tooling with a focus on scalability and maintainability

Profil

  • 2–4 years of experience in software testing or automation engineering, with strong backend/API focus
  • Programming experience in at least one backend language (etc. Java, Kotlin, Go)
  • Strong understanding of REST/GraphQL APIs, messaging systems, and event-driven architectures
  • Hands-on experience with API testing frameworks (e.g., REST-assured, Ktor, Playwright API, Postman/Newman)
  • Experience with CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins) and version control (Git)
  • Practical knowledge of containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes)
  • Strong debugging skills using logs, metrics, and distributed tracing (Datadog, OpenTelemetry, Grafana)
  • Solid understanding of QA methodologies (test strategies, defect lifecycle, coverage analysis)
