Senior QA Automation Engineer Needed!
Want to live in Amsterdam and earn €uros
Ready to grow further and bring others along with you? At Nekst IT, we’re always looking for skilled professionals with a smile. People who breathe quality, enjoy what they do, and believe that growth is something you create together. Not because you have to, but because you can… and because it’s fun.
What you will do:
As a Senior QA Automation Engineer, you help build test automation solutions that truly make a difference. You elevate quality to a higher level with robust frameworks (Playwright or Robot Framework), smart CI/CD integrations, and a strong dose of insight and creativity. You don’t just help teams test better — you teach them to see, understand, and safeguard quality.
In practice, this means:
• Advising on and implementing the right test automation strategy for our clients.
• Building, improving, and maintaining frameworks (Playwright or Robot Framework).
• Analyzing QA processes and improving them in a targeted way.
• Coaching client teams so they can continue independently.
• Acting as a technical expert in test automation and CI/CD integration (Jenkins, Azure DevOps).
• Consulting with developers, product owners, and management about strategy, progress, and risks.
Who you are:
You know where your strengths lie, and you enjoy using them. You love technology, but just as much, you love working with people. New team, new client — you walk in with confidence. You think ahead, build sustainably, and leave behind quality that is up‑to‑date, maintainable, and rock solid. Even when you’re already on your way to your next challenge. And of course, you share your knowledge, insights, and a good dose of humor with your colleagues.
You have:
• At least 5 years of experience as a QA Automation Engineer.
• A consultancy mindset: flexible, communicative, and sharp.
• Deep knowledge of Playwright or Robot Framework.
• Programming skills in Python and/or JavaScript/TypeScript.
• Good command of Dutch and/or English.
Nice to have:
• Experience with performance or security testing.
• Knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).
• Experience leading or setting up QA teams or tribes.
Why Nekst IT?
At Nekst IT, you get the best of both worlds: the security of a permanent employer and the variety of consultancy.
You work with leading organizations in the Netherlands and play an active role in their digital transformation. Meanwhile, we invest in you — with training, certifications, coaching, and the knowledge of your colleagues.
We work hard, laugh harder, and keep communication short and direct. Personal contact and growth are central. Because at Nekst IT, it’s not just about where you are now, but especially about where you want to go.
Work smart. Play hard. Deliver excellence.
Sounds good? Great. Then let’s grab a TEAMS MEET and see if there’s a match. No formal fuss — just a good conversation with people who are as driven as you.
