Software Developer in Test II

About the role

Caseware combines over 35 years of industry expertise with AI-powered technology to transform how audit and accounting professionals work. Serving organizations across 130 countries, we bring intelligent automation directly into audit and financial reporting workflows—helping professionals reduce manual work, navigate complexity, and focus on informed decisions. Join our global team and help build technology that strengthens trust in financial information.

The SDET II owns the automated testing of features within their squad, end to end. At this level the person designs, implements and executes automated tests across the platform, keeps the suite green and trustworthy, and debugs their own failures rather than escalating them. They are a full participant in the Central Quality Engineering function — partnering with product teams to embed quality into every phase of development through tooling, automation, infrastructure and reporting. This is also the level at which the person starts moving coverage down the test pyramid, away from purely UI-based validation toward API, contract and integration testing, because that is where reliability comes from. The SDET II contributes to Caseware’s move toward agentic development and testing, working with AI test harnesses applied within the quality engineering space.
