Hi there!
We are Semrush, a global IT company developing our own product—a platform for digital marketers. New stars are born here, so don’t miss your chance.
This is our QA Automation Engineer role for those who want to turn ideas into reality using test scripts, automation, and maybe a little magic.

Tasks in the role

• Maintain existing autotests and write new ones, including those based on the implemented functionality (UI and API)
• Take part in improving the test framework and test pipeline
• Engage in manual testing of UI and API (including research testing)
• Track the quality of the released product at all stages of the software lifecycle
• Engage in the analysis and formalization of development requirements together with the team, product owner, and UI/UX specialists
• Actively interact with developers and testers on the team to form a technical strategy and improve the quality of development and testing processes

Who we are looking for

• At least three years of experience as a test automation engineer
• Experience in development or testing with one of the following languages: Java/Scala/Kotlin/Golang
• Experience with popular libraries and frameworks (e.g., RestAssured, Retrofit, Playwright, Selenium, JUnit5, TestNG)
• Experience with Gradle or Maven
• Strong skills in backend testing (experience in white-box testing)
• Experience in writing SQL queries (select, join, aggregate functions)
• Experience of UI e2e-testing
• English language B2+

Not required, but a plus

• Experience in automation on Kotlin/Golang and their libraries
• Experience with Selenide or Playwright
• Experience with Continuous Integration systems (e.g., GitLab CI or similar)
• Experience working with Docker
• Experience in load testing (K6, JMeter, or similar)
• You share our common values: Trust, because we prefer to speak up and be our true selves; Sense of Ownership, because it’s not worth wasting time on something you don’t believe in; and enthusiasm for Constant Changes, because we are always looking to make things better.

Our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion commitments

Semrush is an equal opportunity employer. Building a better future for marketers around the world unites people from all backgrounds. Even if you feel that you don’t 100% match all requirements, don’t be discouraged to apply! We are committed to ensure that everyone feels a sense of belonging in the workplace.

We do not discriminate based upon race, religion, creed, color, national origin, sex, pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, ancestry, physical or mental disability, or medical condition including medical characteristics, genetic identity, marital status, military service, or any other classification protected by applicable local, state or federal laws.

Our new colleague, we are waiting for you!

At Semrush, we take a serious and comprehensive approach to hiring new people. We welcome those who are professionals in their field and passionate about their work to join our team.

A “five-minute interview” or “get a job in three clicks” approach is not the way we work.

During the interview, we ask candidates to talk about themselves and their background in detail. We try to discover the most important aspects about the way someone works and their personality before a job offer is made.
