Here are the top 7 software testing jobs for 27-Sep
A note on today’s run: searches ran across Naukri, LinkedIn Jobs, Glassdoor, Wellfound, Foundit, RemoteOK, We Work Remotely, Indeed, and direct company career pages, including the underlying Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, SmartRecruiters, and Workday public job-board pages so each listing’s live status could be checked directly rather than trusted from a cached search snippet. Naukri’s listing pages again returned a robots.txt block on automated fetch, consistent with every prior run, so no Naukri-hosted listing appears below even though Naukri was searched. That live-status check mattered: PayPay India’s Engineering Manager (Automation QA/SDET) listing loaded with an error parameter and no retrievable job body, TEGNA India’s Greenhouse board no longer lists a QA requisition at all, and Snaptrude’s and Digit88’s SDET listings on Wellfound both returned “410 Gone.” Endava’s SDET (Hyderabad) and Nagarro’s Senior Staff Engineer (Selenium/Cucumber, Bengaluru) postings on SmartRecruiters explicitly showed “this job has expired.” Guidewire’s Software Development Engineer in Test II (Bangalore) was confirmed removed via an independent Built In mirror (“this job was removed”), and CGI’s Tosca Automation Lead listing redirected into a bot-verification wall rather than a real job page, so it was dropped rather than reported on faith. Michelin’s Functional AI Tester – GenAI role in Pune was a strong, fresh listing but is explicitly a contract engagement, not full-time, so it was excluded under this report’s own full-time filter despite otherwise clearing every check.
Duplicate detection note: every candidate was checked against C:\Test Metry Jobs\dedupe-log.json, which now holds company, title, and location for 35 prior runs (233 entries). The first candidate batch this run actually surfaced seven near-duplicates that had to be thrown out entirely once cross-checked: Zeta Global’s Staff QA Automation Engineer (Bengaluru), LPL Financial’s Senior Engineer – SDET, Platform Modernization (Hyderabad), JumpCloud’s Senior Quality Engineer – India (Bangalore), Edelman Financial Engines’ Sr. QA Engineer (Bangalore), YipitData’s Senior SDET (India Remote), and Level AI’s SDET (Noida) are each a verbatim repeat, same company, same title, same location, of an entry already reported in prior weeks. Certa’s Software Development Engineer in Test – SDET (India Remote) was dropped as a near-duplicate of Certa’s SDET II role reported on 2026-09-24, same company and location three days apart. A follow-up search round replaced all seven with the Nestle/Nespresso, Deutsche Bank, GE HealthCare, Eli Lilly, Blue Yonder, Qualys, and Radancy listings below, none of which appear anywhere in the 233-entry log.
Honesty note on count and geography: 7 candidates cleared every filter today: full-time, a real testing role, a verified working apply link checked immediately before this report was compiled, High or Medium trust, and no repeat of a prior run. All seven are India-located: four in Bengaluru/Bangalore, two in Pune, and one in Hyderabad. None are remote-only this time, which is simply a reflection of which listings survived the freshness, trust, and duplicate checks today.
Freshness note: this run got unusually good freshness data. Nestle’s posting carries an explicit “Posted September 19, 2026, updated September 25, 2026.” Deutsche Bank’s listing shows “Posted September 15, 2026, updated 20 hours ago.” GE HealthCare’s shows “Posted September 22, 2026.” Eli Lilly’s and Blue Yonder’s both show “Posted September 16, 2026.” Qualys’s shows “Posted September 11, 2026.” Radancy’s own board did not surface an exact date, so per this report’s own freshness rule it is marked “recent, exact timing not shown by source” rather than assigned a guessed age. Each listing was independently reconfirmed live via a direct fetch of the company’s own careers page in the final pass before this report was compiled.
Company: Deutsche Bank
Role: QA Automation Lead (SDET)
Location: Bangalore (Velankani Tech Park), India
Employment Type: Full-time
Type: Onsite
Posted: September 15, 2026; updated 20 hours before this report was compiled
Job Description Summary:
– Lead API automation efforts, designing and maintaining synchronous and asynchronous API automation frameworks at AVP grade
– Own database testing with complex SQL queries and joins, plus integration testing via PACT contract testing
– Run performance testing with Locust and JMeter alongside UI automation in Cypress and Playwright
– Experience required: 8+ years working as an SDET, with expert-level Java
– Testing technologies and automation tools: Java, Serenity, Rest Assured, Cucumber BDD, Cypress, Playwright, JMeter, Locust, Jenkins, GitLab CI
– Programming languages: Java, with SQL for database validation
Why This One Stands Out: this is an AVP-grade leadership role at one of the world’s largest investment banks, and it spans the full stack of QA disciplines end to end, API contract testing, performance testing, UI automation, and UAT coordination with business stakeholders, rather than a single narrow specialty, at a bank that runs its own dedicated QA automation function out of Bangalore.
Trust Rating: High Trust
Type: Onsite
Company: Nestle (Nespresso)
Role: Senior UI & API SDET
Location: Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
Employment Type: Full-time (Permanent Contract)
Type: Hybrid
Posted: September 19, 2026; updated September 25, 2026
Job Description Summary:
– Own and evolve UI and API automation frameworks for Nespresso’s Digital and Tech team, focused on scalability, stability, and reuse
– Design shared automation libraries and integrate testing into CI/CD pipelines across teams
– Define automation standards and mentor other automation engineers
– Experience required: 7+ years in test automation, quality engineering, or software engineering
– Testing technologies and automation tools: Playwright as the primary UI framework, API automation frameworks, GitHub Actions or Jenkins for CI/CD
– Programming languages: not specified beyond automation-framework code; C1-level English required
Why This One Stands Out: Nespresso rarely advertises engineering roles directly under the Nestle umbrella, and this one puts a single senior engineer in charge of the automation standard the rest of the Digital and Tech org has to follow, with contract testing and visual regression testing called out as desirable rather than a generic Selenium-script maintenance job.

Company: Eli Lilly
Role: Principal Software Development Engineer in Test (Principal SDET)
Location: Hyderabad, India
Employment Type: Full-time
Type: Onsite
Posted: September 16, 2026
Job Description Summary:
– Practice shift-left test engineering, embedding quality into design before code is written, and own CI/CD quality gates
– Build test harnesses for agentic AI systems with deterministic evaluation and regression testing
– Deliver quality observability through OpenTelemetry instrumentation and support GxP/SOX/HIPAA audit-grade evidence
– Experience required: 10+ years in professional engineering, including 5+ years in test engineering or SDET roles
– Testing technologies and automation tools: pytest, Playwright or Selenium, Postman/Newman or REST Assured, Locust or k6, GitHub Actions/Azure DevOps/Jenkins, Terraform, AWS
– Programming languages: Python required, plus Java, TypeScript, or Go
Why This One Stands Out: this is a principal-level role that puts test engineering at the center of quality for agentic AI systems inside a regulated pharmaceutical environment, GxP and HIPAA evidence trails included, a genuinely different mandate from most SDET postings that only ask for scripting and framework maintenance.

Company: GE HealthCare
Role: SDET Engineering Specialist
Location: Bengaluru, India
Employment Type: Full-time
Type: Onsite (relocation assistance offered)
Posted: September 22, 2026
Job Description Summary:
– Build end-to-end automation frameworks and execute functional, regression, integration, and UI tests for healthcare software
– Validate APIs, databases, and cross-browser compatibility, and integrate suites into CI/CD pipelines
– Work with rules engines (Apache Camel, Drools, JRules) alongside standard front-end stacks
– Experience required: Bachelor’s in Computer Science or a STEM field, with hands-on automation and manual testing background
– Testing technologies and automation tools: Playwright, Selenium, TestNG, Maven, Gradle
– Programming languages: JavaScript, plus JDBC/JPA/Hibernate/Spring Data for database-layer testing
Why This One Stands Out: GE HealthCare builds regulated medical technology, not consumer software, so this role’s test coverage spans rules-engine validation and database integrity checks that carry real clinical stakes, on a team that explicitly separates SDET engineering from generic manual QA.
Trust Rating: High Trust
Type: Onsite
Company: Blue Yonder (a Panasonic company)
Role: QA Engineer – Manual Testing, Database Testing, API Testing, SQL
Location: Pune, India
Employment Type: Full-time
Type: Onsite
Posted: September 16, 2026
Job Description Summary:
– Run functional and integration-level API testing with Postman or REST Assured, and take part in design reviews early in the SDLC
– Track and root-cause software defects in Jira, pairing exploratory testing with maintainable automated scripts
– Test Android and iOS applications on cloud device platforms and validate microservices behavior
– Experience required: 3-5 years in functional and automation testing
– Testing technologies and automation tools: Jira, Postman/SoapUI, Git/SVN, pCloudy for mobile testing
– Programming languages: not specified beyond SQL for intermediate-to-advanced database validation
Why This One Stands Out: Blue Yonder builds the supply-chain planning software that a large share of global retailers run their inventory on, so a QA defect here has a direct line to real-world shelf and shipment accuracy, and the role deliberately mixes manual, API, database, and mobile testing rather than isolating the candidate to one layer.
Trust Rating: High Trust
Type: Onsite
Company: Qualys
Role: Senior QA Engineer
Location: Pune, India
Employment Type: Full-time
Type: Onsite
Posted: September 11, 2026
Job Description Summary:
– Develop test plans and automation in direct collaboration with product and engineering teams
– Run end-to-end testing in production-like environments and catch defects before they ship
– Own and maintain the automation suite, investigating and fixing failures as the codebase evolves
– Experience required: 4+ years testing and automating enterprise, cloud, or SaaS applications
– Testing technologies and automation tools: UI and API automation, CI/CD integration, Git, Bamboo, Jenkins, Linux
– Programming languages: Java, Python, or Robot Framework
Why This One Stands Out: Qualys is a publicly traded cybersecurity vendor, so this QA seat carries real security-testing weight, web application security testing and network-issue diagnosis are both explicitly called out as required skills, not just a nice-to-have bolted onto a generic SaaS QA job description.
Trust Rating: High Trust

Company: Radancy
Role: Team Lead – QA Engineer
Location: Bengaluru, India
Employment Type: Full-time
Type: Hybrid (3 days per week in-office)
Posted: Recent, exact timing not shown by source
Job Description Summary:
– Lead and mentor a QA engineering team, handling performance reviews and career development for direct reports
– Set QA strategy and test plans aligned to product objectives, while staying hands-on with test design
– Design and execute manual and automated test cases across functional, regression, performance, and security testing
– Experience required: minimum 2 years in a QA leadership or team-lead capacity
– Testing technologies and automation tools: Selenium, JUnit, TestNG
– Programming languages: not explicitly specified on the posting
Why This One Stands Out: Radancy runs recruitment-marketing technology used by large enterprise talent-acquisition teams, and this role is a genuine hands-on-plus-people-management hybrid, tracking defect density, test coverage, and release readiness as real management metrics rather than treating “lead” as a title-only bump.
Trust Rating: Medium Trust
