Please note that the position is 100% remote and we are open for candidates from around the world.
Severalnines provides automation and management software for open source database clusters. We help companies deploy their databases in any environment, and manage all operational aspects to achieve high availability at scale. We're headquartered in Kalmar, Sweden, and work fully remotely from home offices around the world. Join us and help build the next generation of cloud services and automation for SQL and NoSQL open-source databases — on-premises or in the cloud.
Position overview
Severalnines is looking for a seasoned QA engineer to lead the test architecture for our on-premise flagship product, and who isn't afraid to get hands‑on. We want someone who enjoys designing test scenarios and building the most efficient test matrix to raise the product's quality to the next level — someone who believes QA's scope goes well beyond writing E2E tests in the Web UI, and is just as comfortable validating behavior at the API, service, and backend level.



This role requires programming skills to directly contribute to and extend our automated testing infrastructure. You must be comfortable using Bash and Python. We'd love to see you share our interest in databases.
Responsibilities
Set technical direction for testing the backend of our on-premise product
Design, develop, and execute automation scripts using open source tools
Estimate, prioritize, plan, and coordinate testing activities
Create detailed, well‑structured test plans and test cases
Identify, record, and track bugs
Evaluate the UI/UX of new features with the same rigor as backend behavior — catching usability issues and inconsistencies, not just functional defects
Work closely with developers throughout feature development, giving early, clear feedback to shape the implementation rather than only validating it at the end
Stay up to date with new testing tools and strategies
What we're looking for
5+ years of proven
