Motorola Solutions is seeking a Senior Test Engineer / Test Team Lead to own and elevate software quality across all Blue Eye products. This hands-on leadership role involves establishing testing strategies, implementing scalable quality practices, and integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines for reliable Azure deployments.
What You'll Do
- Own quality across all products, including third-party integrations (REST APIs, webhooks, event-driven pipelines), the AIPX SOC application, and the customer/partner portal.
- Establish a testing strategy spanning API, integration, system, and UI layers, aligned with a two-week sprint release cadence.
- Define release readiness criteria and "Definition of Done" standards that include clear test automation expectations.
- Mentor engineers on writing testable code, lead incident reviews to prevent regressions, and grow the test function over time through hiring and coaching.
- Build and maintain robust automated test suites using Cypress for UI/E2E and API-level tests for backend services.
- Embed tests into CI/CD pipelines with specific gates: PR Level (fast feedback, smoke, and contract checks), Merge/Scheduled (broad regression suites).
- Standardize deterministic test patterns, publish actionable artifacts, and implement logic for flaky-test handling.
- Partner with DevOps/Platform engineering to ensure tests run reliably in Azure environments managed via Terraform.
- Oversee the provisioning and teardown of ephemeral or short-lived test environments.
- Ensure the safe use of test data, secrets, and secure variables (e.g., Key Vault) across Dev, Staging, and Production.
What We're Looking For
- 7+ years of professional experience in software testing, quality engineering, or test automation.
- Proven experience establishing or rebuilding testing processes in a complex platform.
- Strong hands-on experience with Cypress and modern automated testing frameworks.
- Demonstrated experience plugging tests into CI/CD with meaningful quality gates; comfortable collaborating with infrastructure teams in cloud environments.
- Solid understanding of distributed systems, integration points, and asynchronous/event-driven workflows.
- Ability to influence engineering teams through collaboration and clear technical communication.
- Legal authorization to work in the U.S. indefinitely is required. Employer work permit sponsorship is not available for this position.
Nice to Have
- Experience with Terraform-based deployments and test environment provisioning patterns.
- Experience testing event-driven architectures (Azure Event Hub, Event Grid, Kafka, RabbitMQ, etc.).
- Familiarity with Azure services (App Services, AKS, Functions, Key Vault).
- Exposure to real-time or video-centric systems, including WebRTC.
- Familiarity with observability and diagnostics tooling (Application Insights, Grafana, Prometheus).
