CAE Automation Engineer_(SA2115)

• A primary focus will be on designing, writing, enhancing, and
• maintaining automated test scripts using languages like Python or similar.
• You'll help build a robust regression test suite for products
• Architect and implement automated tests specifically targeting
• challenging user interface and graphics-intensive test cases. You'll
• leverage tools like Python, Perl, Eggplant or similar, pushing the
• boundaries of what's automatable.
• Create programs or scripts that automate test cases from
• real-world engineering functionalities like import/export, FE model
• creation, analysis setup, or post-processing tasks.
• Proactively translate existing manual test cases into efficient
• automated scripts, ensuring comprehensive coverage, improved efficiency,
• and faster feedback cycles. You'll design tests that effectively validate
• new features and existing functionality.
• Develop and prepare model files necessary to support and
• validate automated test functions within products.
• Update the current suite of automated tests to align with the
• latest product releases and add new automated tests for functional areas
• that currently lack automation.
• Work closely with senior QA engineers and software developers,
• actively contributing to discussions on test strategy, automation
• architecture, and the integration of automated tests into our continuous
• integration pipelines.
