Software Development Engineer In Test

We are looking for an experienced Software Development Engineer in Test to join our DICE Quality Engineering team in Bucharest, Romania.

As a SDET, you will report to an Engineering Manager based in Bucharest while partnering with members from all DICE locations.

Responsibilities:

• Architect and scale reliable and maintainable test automation frameworks from scratch across Front End, World Levels, Backend, and API layers.
• Establish the long-term technical vision for test automation tools, libraries, and infrastructure across the Quality Engineering department.
• Influence system architecture early on to promote "shift-left" testing methodologies, ensuring testability is baked into the design phase.
• Architect and improve the integration of automated tests into CI/CD pipelines, maximizing build speed and reliable feedback loops.
• Lead non-functional testing strategies, including advanced performance engineering, load testing, security vulnerability scanning, and chaos engineering (stress testing).
• Establish the foundation allowing DICE test automation to evolve from a "Script-First" to an "AI-Native" approach.
• Develop adversarial testing frameworks to detect biases, edge cases, and flaws in ML and Generative AI models employed within our CI infrastructure.
• Research and lead the development of "Self-Healing" auto-tests by injecting Generative AI into the runtime execution loop.
• Be the ultimate technical escalation point for critical automation failures, blocking pipeline issues, or production quality incidents.
• Partner with Engineering Managers, Solution Architects, and Product Owners to agree on organization goals delivery.
• Mentor mid-level Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET)s and Test Designers, evolving their coding, framework design, and engineering skills.

Requirements:

• Minimum of 5+ years of experience in a Software Engineering, DevOps, or Software Development Engineer in Test role, with experience architecting automation frameworks from concept to production.
• Proficiency in at least one object-oriented or functional language (e.g., Python, Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, or Go).
• Experience with CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, GitLab, or Jenkins) and containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Understanding of complex, distributed cloud systems and identifying structural integration risks.
• Capability to explain technical quality risks to both technical developers and non-technical partners or product leaders.

Benefits:

• Comprehensive portfolio with games and experiences.
• Hybrid work model with three days per week in the office.
• Health insurance.
• Support for mental well-being.
• Pension savings.
• Paid leave.
