Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET)

Build quality into digital health from day one.

At Resmed, every line of code and every product decision has the potential to improve lives. As a Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET), you'll help ensure the reliability, quality, and performance of cloud-based digital health solutions that support people on their journey from sleep-health screening through diagnosis and treatment. Working within a collaborative engineering team focused on OSA Pathways, you'll drive test automation, improve release confidence, and help shape quality practices across web applications, APIs, cloud services, data flows, and CI/CD pipelines. This is an opportunity to combine strong engineering fundamentals with modern automation approaches, including responsible use of AI-assisted testing tools, while contributing to products that make healthcare more accessible and effective.

The role is offered as a hybrid position with 2–3 days per week onsite in our Dublin, Sandyford office.

What You'll Do

• Design, develop, test, and maintain automated checks across web applications, APIs, backend services, and system integrations.
• Build and enhance test automation frameworks using tools such as Cypress, Playwright, JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Cucumber, or equivalent technologies.
• Create risk-based smoke, regression, functional, and exploratory testing coverage for critical user journeys.
• Validate workflows including assessment entry, questionnaire completion, eligibility outcomes, account creation, consent management, partner handoffs, reporting, and analytics events.
• Use AI-assisted tools to accelerate test generation, automation maintenance, and failure analysis while ensuring outputs are accurate, maintainable, and appropriate.
• Collaborate closely with engineers, product managers, designers, architects, QA specialists, security, data, and support teams to embed quality throughout the development lifecycle.
• Contribute to CI/CD pipelines so automated tests provide meaningful feedback during development, pull requests, releases, and production readiness activities.
• Investigate defects, flaky tests, environment issues, integration failures, and data-related problems using logs, traces, screenshots, and reproducible evidence.
• Support release readiness through regression planning, defect triage, testing activities, documentation, and risk communication.
• Monitor automation coverage, identify gaps and duplication, and recommend improvements that strengthen product quality.
• Participate in code reviews, test reviews, and architectural discussions with a focus on testability, reliability, observability, and user risk.
• Help shape best practices for responsible AI usage within quality engineering.

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field involving coding.
• Professional experience in software testing, quality engineering, or software development in test.
• Experience with both manual and automated testing approaches and the ability to apply the right level of testing based on risk.
• Hands-on experience developing and maintaining automated tests using Cypress, Playwright, Cucumber, JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, or similar technologies.
• Strong understanding of web application testing, including browser behaviour, responsive design, accessibility fundamentals, validation, error handling, and end-to-end user journeys.
• Experience testing REST APIs and backend services.
• Familiarity with cloud-based architectures, ideally including AWS environments and associated services.
• Experience working with CI/CD pipelines, Git, GitHub Actions, Docker, and automated quality validation.
• Familiarity with Jira, Confluence, GitHub, and agile development practices.
• Ability to analyse defects, identify likely root causes, and communicate findings clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Interest in AI-assisted testing and the responsible use of AI tools to improve quality engineering.
• Understanding of data and analytics validation principles.

Nice to have
