Java / Automation Engineer (Modernization & Automation Pivot)

Overview

We are seeking a mid-to-senior level Java Engineer to support the modernization of an existing CPQ application and transition into a long-term automation engineering role.

This is a unique opportunity to join a project where:

• A proof of concept has already been completed
• The architecture and API integrations are fully documented
• A working prototype exists, validating the modernization path

The initial focus will be to help bring the Java-based solution into production, followed by a pivot into automation engineering leveraging modern testing frameworks.

Phase 1 – Application Modernization

• Support the transition of a legacy CPQ application from C# to Java/React
• Work within an API-driven architecture, integrating and orchestrating existing services
• Leverage detailed documentation outlining:
• API mappings
• System interactions
• Integration points
• Assist in stabilizing and operationalizing the modernized application

Phase 2 – Automation Engineering (Primary Long-Term Focus)

• Transition into a Java-based Automation Engineer role
• Design and build automated test frameworks using:
• Selenium
• Playwright
• Develop and execute automated test suites for application functionality
• Integrate automation into CI/CD pipelines
• Collaborate on Azure DevOps (ADO) workflows and release processes

Required Qualifications

• Strong experience with Java
• Experience working with:
• APIs and system integrations
• Service-based or API-heavy environments
• Understanding of software development lifecycle (SDLC) and deployment workflows
• Exposure to CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with test automation frameworks (Selenium, Playwright, etc.)
• Background in manual testing with progression toward automation
• Familiarity with:
• Azure DevOps (ADO)
• Automated testing integration within CI/CD pipelines
• Experience working in modernization or migration projects

What We’re Looking For

• Mid-level to Senior individual contributor (not a leadership role)
• Hands-on, execution-focused mindset
• Ability to work with pre-defined architecture and documentation
• Someone currently transitioning or leaning into automation engineering
• Strong communicator who can operate across development and QA functions
