This role is hybrid, requiring three days per week onsite in our Needham, MA headquarters.  

Advisor360° is hiring a Software Automation Engineer III to build and test shared services and tools, drive operational excellence, and automate systems in our hybrid-cloud environment. This role requires balancing tactical automation solutions with strategic implementation, from developing scripts to resolve customer-impacting issues to creating sustainable automation frameworks for long-term initiatives.

Here’s What You’ll Do:  

• Work back from the customer to drive and own Quality within your team.
• Work collaboratively with cross functional stakeholders employing a “shift left” mentality.  Work with Product/Design/etc. to understand and clearly shape the “definition of done.”
• Treat AI as a first-class engineering tool — accelerate our delivery timelines, surface edge cases earlier, and raise the quality bar beyond what traditional approaches alone can achieve.  Finding bugs is cool, but you know what’s cooler? Preventing them in the first place.
• Use AI to accelerate the translation of requirements into test strategies — turning documentation into actionable, high-coverage test plans.
• Champion and evolve our quality engineering culture by establishing AI-forward best practices — from AI-assisted test generation and triage to intelligent coverage analysis — setting the standard for how the team works smarter, not just harder .
• Assist in manual testing where applicable. We employ an automation first strategy, but manual testing is an important tool in our toolbox.
• Design and develop automated tests in collaboration with engineers to ensure software quality and efficiency.
• Engage in software release activities when required.

What You Bring to the Table:  

• 5+ years of software quality assurance experience.
• Strong programming experience in Python, Javascript with knowledge of Selenium and Playwright.
• A data-driven mindset amplified by AI — you don't just analyze problems, you actively use intelligent tooling to surface patterns, prioritize risk, and make sharper decisions faster .
• A demonstrated habit of reaching for AI tools first — Claude, Augment, and others — to write better code faster, reduce rework, and continuously discover smarter approaches to quality challenges
• Understanding of code architecture best practices such as reusability, maintainability, scalability, and abstraction.
• Experience and understanding of source control (BitBucket/GitHub) and CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Github Actions).
• Experience working with REST APIs and usage of tools like Swagger and Postman.
• Experience with SQL and relational databases and capability to dig into and understand data.
• Experience in the financial and/or insurance industry is a plus.
• In-depth knowledge of Scrum and Agile Software Development Methodology.
• Excellent oral and written communication across disciplines and teams.
