Senior IoT QA Engineer (Pune / Hyderabad)

We're modernizing a legacy IoT monolith into a microservices-based platform. Seeking a hands-on QA engineer who can quickly grasp the domain and drive both manual and automation testing across edge, controller, and cloud services.

Responsibilities

  • Ramp up quickly on IoT domain, current architecture, and modernization roadmap.

  • Own end-to-end test strategy for legacy and new microservices, covering API and messaging workflows.

  • Design, write, and maintain automation test suites in Python for REST, SOAP, gRPC and messaging protocols.

  • Prepare and execute detailed test plans and test cases, ensuring full coverage across device, gateway, and cloud components.

  • Validate device messaging flows including telemetry, commands, events, c2d/d2c communication, twin updates, and partner integrations.

  • Ensure backward compatibility between legacy SOAP services and new REST/gRPC services throughout migration.

  • Track defects, ensure root cause clarity, and partner with engineering to tighten quality gates.

  • Contribute to CI integration and continuous improvement of automation frameworks and processes.
