QA Automation Engineer, Pasig

About the role

We are building a new internal engineering team for our e-commerce platform and you are the first hire. Today the platform has minimal test coverage and your job is to change that.

You will build the test automation infrastructure from scratch - Cypress for E2E, Jest and React Testing Library for units - on a Next js 16 platform with a Frontastic BFF layer, CommerceTools commerce engine, Algolia search, and 20+ third-party integrations.

You will also work alongside AI agents. Our CI/CD pipeline includes an AI Test Generation Agent that automatically creates tests for every pull request. You will review the agent’s output, refine its prompts, and improve its accuracy over time. This is a human-plus-AI role - you set the patterns, the agent scales them.

What you will do

• Stand up Cypress and Jest/RTL test infrastructure from zero on a Next js 16 + TypeScript 5.9 codebase
• Write critical-path E2E tests for: browse → search (Algolia) → product page → cart → checkout → payment portals → order confirmation
• Build mocking infrastructure for the Frontastic action system (all API calls route through a central HTTP client called fetch-api-hub ts)
• Create mocking strategies for 20+ third-party services so tests run fast and without external dependencies
• Define the test strategy document: what to test, coverage targets, naming conventions, folder structure
• Integrate test suites into GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline (unit tests < 3 min, E2E < 10 min)
• Review and improve AI-generated tests weekly - tune the agent’s prompts to produce higher-quality output
• Hit 40% coverage by Month 3, 60% by Month 6, 80% by Month 12
