About the role
Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) Pittsburgh, PA (onsite 4 days per week, remote 1 day) Monday - Friday, 8:00am - 5:00pmOur client, a leading financial services company, is looking for a Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) to join a team migrating mainframe code to Java Spring Boot and microservices with an Angular front end. This role is closer to full stack engineering than traditional QA: about 80% coding and 20% testing. You will automate existing manual test processes and write automation test cases from day one.
What you will do:
- Write automated test cases in Java and TypeScript, starting on day one
- Convert existing manual test processes into automated ones
- Build end-to-end tests with Playwright and BDD scenarios with Cucumber
- Test Spring Boot microservices and the Angular front end as they are migrated from the mainframe
- Report test results with Serenity
- Work in two-week sprints alongside the development team
- What you bring 5+ years of experience in test automation or software development (5 to 7 years is the target, and there is no upper limit for a strong candidate)
- Hands-on programming skills in Java and TypeScript (any recent Java version is fine)
- Experience with Playwright and Cucumber
- A background as a Java developer who moved into test automation, or as a QA engineer who has also worked as a developer
- Financial services experience is not required
Nice to have:
- Serenity (a working understanding is enough)
- Angular (any recent version)
- Spring Boot

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
