Continuous Testing Automation Engineer (UiPath)

In this role, you will:

• Design, build, and maintain automated testing frameworks for Windows endpoints, macOS endpoints, VDI environments, and Microsoft 365 applications.

• Establish continuous testing practices that validate patches, feature updates, policy changes, security configuration updates, device provisioning changes, and application releases before broad deployment.

• Create reusable test suites for endpoint engineering scenarios including provisioning, compliance, remediation, configuration drift, application delivery, sign-in/access validation, and core user workflows.

• Use automation tools such as UiPath, PowerShell, and platform-specific scripting to orchestrate end-to-end validation across workplace technologies.

• Partner with Windows, Mac, Mobility, VDI, and Digital Workplace engineers to embed automated testing into release and change processes.

• Support pilot rings, phased deployments, rollback readiness, and release governance by providing reliable pre-release and post-change validation.

• Define test strategies, quality gates, test data approaches, and reporting standards that improve release consistency and operational confidence.

• Integrate automated testing into CI/CD workflows and engineering pipelines using Git-based practices and shared automation services where applicable.

• Improve platform reliability and user experience by identifying regression risks early and reducing manual validation effort across teams.

• Document test frameworks, validation standards, runbooks, and recommendations to enable broader adoption of automation-first quality practices.

Technical Requirements:

• Strong experience building automated testing solutions for endpoint platforms, desktop applications, or enterprise user computing environments.

• Hands-on experience with test automation tools such as UiPath and scripting languages such as PowerShell; familiarity with additional automation tooling is a plus.

• Working knowledge of Windows endpoint engineering, macOS management, VDI platforms, and Microsoft 365 application behaviors in enterprise environments.

• Experience validating operating system changes, application deployments, policy/configuration updates, and user workflow scenarios across multiple device platforms.

• Understanding of test automation frameworks, regression testing, release validation, quality gates, and change governance practices.

• Familiarity with CI/CD concepts, source control, and Git-based workflows for promoting and maintaining automation assets.

• Experience with endpoint management and delivery technologies such as Microsoft Intune, SCCM, Jamf , Autopilot, VMware Horizon, Citrix, or similar enterprise platforms is strongly preferred.

• Knowledge of identity, access, and compliance validation patterns in workplace environments, including Microsoft Entra ID and related controls, is a plus.

• Strong troubleshooting skills with the ability to isolate issues across infrastructure, platform configuration, automation logic, and end-user workflows.

What it takes:

• Undergraduate degree in a related field or equivalent practical experience.

• 3-5+ years of relevant experience in test automation, quality engineering, endpoint engineering, workplace platforms, or a related automation-focused role.

• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and debugging capabilities across complex enterprise environments.

• Ability to translate platform risk areas into practical, scalable automated test coverage.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to document standards, results, and recommendations clearly.

• Ability to work across engineering, operations, release governance, and project teams to improve delivery quality.

• Strong planning, organization, and execution discipline with an automation-first mindset.
