About the role

We are hiring an AI Software Development Engineer in Test II (AI SDET II) — an experienced quality engineer who owns feature-level test strategy and automation for AI-enabled products In this role, you will design and maintain automated tests and AI evaluation suites, integrate quality signals into CI/CD pipelines, and partner with Scrum teams to prevent defects and deliver reliable AI capabilities.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own test strategy and execution for assigned AI features across unit, API, UI, and end-to-end layers, aligned to Definition of Done and release criteria
  • Create and maintain automated AI evaluation suites (including golden datasets, scoring, and regression baselines) covering key user journeys and failure modes.
  • Validate prompt, retrieval, and orchestration changes using repeatable test harnesses and defined acceptance thresholds
  • Build and extend automation frameworks, reusable utilities, and improve test stability, speed, and signal-to-noise
  • Integrate automated tests and AI evaluations into CI/CD, triage pipeline failures, and reduce flaky tests
  • Partner with engineers to improve testability (contracts, logging, observability) and drive shift-left quality practices.
  • Analyze defects and AI output issues, perform root cause analysis, and implement regression coverage to prevent recurrence.
  • Provide guidance to junior SDETs on automation, test design, and AI validation patterns; communicate quality risks to stakeholders.
  • Support production readiness by validating guardrails, monitoring signals, and performance requirements for AI features.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science/Engineering (or equivalent practical experience).
  • 4 + years of experience in SDET / QA automation / quality engineering with strong hands-on automation and test design skills.
  • Proficiency in at least one programming language (e.g., Python, C#, Java) and SQL, with the ability to debug services and tests.
  • Experience building and maintaining automated tests (API/UI and/or data/ETL) and working in CI/CD pipelines
  • Experience testing AI-enabled systems or demonstrated applied AI fluency (prompt/RAG changes, evaluation basics, common failure modes).
  • Experience working in Agile/Scrum teams and collaborating effectively with Engineering and Product.
  • Preferred: Experience with LLM evaluation techniques (golden sets, rubric-based grading, automated scoring, review workflows).
  • Preferred: Familiarity with AI safety and guardrail testing (grounding, PII handling, injection risks).
  • Preferred: Experience with cloud tooling, containers, observability, and release automation

Why Join Us

  • Build quality systems for real-world AI-enabled products, including LLM evaluations and reliability guardrails.
  • Own feature-level quality end-to-end: from test strategy to CI/CD quality gates to production readiness
  • Work with strong cross-functional teams across Engineering, Product, and AI stakeholders in an Agile environment.
  • Grow in modern quality engineering practices: observability, automation frameworks, shift-left testing, and AI evaluation patterns.

About CodeNinja Inc.

CodeNinja is a Middle Eastern–American Software & AI company helping businesses build AI systems and learning architectures for mission-critical workloads.

With offices in Seattle, San Francisco, Riyadh, and Lahore, our work centers on enabling organizations to develop capabilities across workplaces and factory floors using both open-source and proprietary AI models, spanning generative and deterministic systems.

We believe most workplaces and factory floors are not ready for the post-AGI era of work. Our mission is to help enterprises reimagine how work itself is organized and executed so that human talent and automation not only coexist but thrive. We call this mission: “Reimagining Workplaces for Post-AGI Readiness.”

At the core of our approach is Hyper Tools, our integrated Platform + Services model, designed to accelerate the creation of AI applications and agents in complex domains. Hyper Tools reduces the generality of large models through reinforcement learning, rapid development workflows and purpose built synthetic and manual Data creation.

Our focus spans four core thrust areas:

Physical AI Systems – Building AI/ML systems for physical infrastructure. Some of the world’s leading chemical and energy companies rely on CodeNinja’s outcome-based, vendor-independent models to enhance operational efficiency and revenue.

Work AI – Developing agentic AI systems that transform workplace processes into adaptive, intelligent experiences.

Hyper Core – Enabling enterprises to build software and automation layers in-house instead of outsourcing to Software Services Vendors.

Global Capability & AI Centers – Partnering with universities and developer communities in South Asia and South America to build AI and research talent pipelines, helping global companies scale their capabilities sustainably.

Founded by 4 Engineers and incredible team of operators, CodeNinja is united by this mantra of " Inspiration and Innovation for every knowledge worker in the world"
