QA Automation Engineer

Novara provides safety, operational risk management, and sustainability software that empowers organizations to identify and resolve issues before they become incidents. Through the Flex and Risk Management Center platforms, Novara helps organizations manage operational risk proactively with a system they can configure to fit their operations, data that unifies risk and safety intelligence, and tools that increase workforce participation. Novara’s combination of software, training, and AI-powered tools put people and safety first while protecting critical operations.

Novara Software is seeking a QA Automation Engineer to expand and strengthen automated test coverage for Novara Flex, our EHS and compliance platform. This position sits within an embedded quality engineering model, working directly inside product scrum teams rather than operating as a downstream validation function.

The QA Automation Engineer is responsible for designing, building, and maintaining automated API and end to end test coverage within an established Playwright and TypeScript framework, integrating that coverage into our CI/CD quality gates, and owning performance and load testing for the platform. Quality Engineering holds release gate authority at Novara, so this role directly influences whether a build advances through our Dev, QA, UAT, and Production pipeline.

This is a hands on automation role. The successful candidate is a strong engineer who thinks in terms of risk and coverage, communicates clearly, and raises quality concerns early rather than at the end of a sprint.
