Your Role :

We’re looking for a detail-oriented and technically strong Software Engineer in Test with a passion for quality and a knack for understanding complex systems. You’ll bring a critical eye to the Tenable Security Center, Nessus and Agent products, operating in dynamic environments and identifying quality issues before they reach our customers. We need someone with strong analytical skills , who learns new technologies quickly and thrives in a fast-moving, startup-style environment. This isn't a role for someone who waits for directions — we're looking for a self-starter , a driver, and a champion of test-driven development (TDD) principles and with strong Python and UI automation skillset. While you’ll focus on automating existing functionality, your contributions will be instrumental in maturing our test frameworks and development processes — often with limited documentation or hand-holding.

Your Opportunity :

• Own and execute manual, regression, and API-level, UI tests for enterprise-grade, Onprem or cloud-based, distributed systems.
• Design, write, and maintain automated test suites that validate key functionality and prevent regressions.
• Collaborate closely with developers and product teams to ensure features meet high standards of reliability and performance.
• Identify, document, and track bugs through resolution using established QA tools like Python, Selenium, Playwright and processes.
• Contribute to the creation and maintenance of quality gates, test plans, and release readiness criteria. (including Jira Test Plans, Executions, Test Sets etc.)
• Work hands-on in environments such as VMWare Vsphere for Virtual Machines, understanding infrastructure-level configurations that impact the application.
• Provide continuous feedback on quality, coverage gaps, and process improvements.
