Are you a strong developer who builds test automation as real software, and wants to stand up an entire practice from scratch Repurpose.io is hiring its first automation leader - the person who builds the framework, sets the standard, and brings the existing testers along. You'll work on a profitable SaaS platform serving 100,000+ creators, in a team that treats AI as a genuine force multiplier. If building from zero excites you, read on. ABOUT REPURPOSE.IO Repurpose.io is a profitable SaaS company revolutionising social media automation for creators. The platform processes millions of videos, serves real-time analytics, and manages publishing across every major platform with quality at its core. The team is small, flat, and genuinely AI-first: advanced AI systems are woven into daily work so the team ships faster and smarter. No hierarchies, no politics just talented peers solving real problems in person. THE ROLE Today there's no structured automation practice - that's the job. You'll architect the automation suite from scratch, own how we test for both correctness and performance, and set the standard the rest of the team works to. This is a strong-developer role and a player/coach seat: hands-on builder first, mentor and process-owner alongside. There's no legacy framework to inherit, you set it. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Build the automation suite from scratch stand up web and API test automation from zero with Playwright + TypeScript, choosing patterns that scale. - Own functional and non-functional testing design performance and load testing with K6, treating speed, stability, and resilience as first-class. - Design and manage test data build the fixtures, datasets, and environments that make automated testing realistic and repeatable. - Run tests like production software containerise and run the suite with Docker on AWS (ECS), wired into CI/CD so feedback is fast and trusted. - Make AI part of the workflow use Claude and AI-assisted tooling to accelerate test design, maintenance, and failure triage. - Lead and grow the team mentor and upskill the existing testers on the tooling, frameworks, and AI-augmented practices you introduce. - Own the strategy decide what we automate, where quality gates live, and what good looks like, and report on it in plain language. WHAT YOU BRING - A strong developer first you write production-grade code and have designed and managed multiple kinds of test automation. - A track record of building automation frameworks from scratch, not just extending someone else's suite. - Hands-on depth across functional and non-functional testing, including performance/load (K6 or equivalent) and solid test data management. - Fluency in TypeScript and modern E2E automation (Playwright or equivalent), with judgment to pick the right tool per surface. - Comfort owning test infrastructure Docker, containerised execution, and cloud runtime (AWS ECS or similar). - A deep interest in AI-augmented testing, and ideally some hands-on use of AI to do your engineering work better. - Experience mentoring engineers and setting direction where none exists today. NICE TO HAVE - Experience as a first or founding QA/automation hire. - Mobile automation experience (Appium / Maestro) relevant as our surface grows. - Testing against third-party platform APIs / integrations at scale. - A clear point of view on where AI-assisted testing genuinely helps versus adds noise. You'll work with Playwright TypeScript K6 Docker AWS (ECS) Claude, against a Next.js / TypeScript codebase. You'll have a robust say in evolving this if you'd architect it differently, we want to hear why. IS THIS YOU - A builder, not a maintainer you'd rather create the practice than inherit someone else's compromises. - Quality-obsessed and pragmatic you balance rigour with shipping. - AI-forward you see AI-augmented engineering as where the best teams are heading, and you want to lead that here.z This probably isn't the right fit if you're a manual tester who learned a bit of automation, if you need an established framework to work within, or if you'd rather not own strategy, Team training and Mentorship in the Automation space and direction.
