AI Engineer - Quality

Celonis is the global leader in Process Intelligence and the pioneer of Process Mining technology. As one of the world’s fastest-growing enterprise SaaS companies, we are changemakers pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. We invest heavily in advanced AI capabilities-specifically our Process Intelligence Graph-to turn data insights into immediate business action. We believe there is a massive opportunity to unlock global productivity and sustainability by placing intelligence at the core of every business process. Join our mission to make processes work for people, companies, and the planet.

The Team:

You will join the Sailfin Accounts Receivable (AR) Team, a product engineering team within the Finance & Accounting domain. We build and maintain an enterprise-grade AR product used by global customers.

The team works with modern engineering practices, AI/ML capabilities, automation, and deep integrations across platforms such as Salesforce, Celonis, and other enterprise systems.

This role sits at the intersection of Quality Engineering + AI-driven automation + enterprise data integration.

The Role:

We are looking for an AI Engineer - Quality who can build next-generation intelligent automation and quality frameworks. This role goes beyond traditional QA-it combines strong automation engineering, enterprise integration understanding, and AI-assisted quality improvement. You will architect automation frameworks, drive end-to-end quality strategy, and build smart testing capabilities powered by LLMs and AI agents.

Most importantly, you will test the bridge between the world’s #1 CRM (Salesforce) and the world’s #1 Process Mining platform (Celonis) -a complex, data-heavy integration that powers enterprise decision-making.

The work you’ll do:

• • Architect the Automation Foundation
  • Design, build, and maintain a scalable, modular automation framework from scratch using Playwright (JavaScript/TypeScript).
  • Establish reusable utilities, reporting systems, abstraction layers, and extensible test modules.
  • Drive Full QA Strategy
  • Own and execute QA strategy across:
  • Frontend/UI
  • Backend/API
  • Data validation
  • Implement robust test coverage across the end-to-end workflow.
  • Integration Quality Specialist
  • Validate data integrity between Salesforce and Celonis.
  • Identify edge cases involving:
  • complex business logic
  • process mining models
  • multi-step data transformations
  • Ensure consistency across pipelines, APIs, and event flows.
  • Performance & Load Testing
  • Lead performance engineering efforts using tools like k6 or JMeter.
  • Ensure the integration performs reliably under large enterprise-scale data volumes.
  • AI-Driven Quality Engineering
  • Leverage LLMs and AI tools to:
  • auto-generate test cases
  • summarize failures
  • enable root-cause analysis
  • build intelligent test assistants
  • Support the shift from manual testing to AI-first Quality Engineering.

The qualifications you need:

• 6 years of experience in technical QA roles on high-scale web applications.
• Strong hands-on experience with Playwright (async patterns, state management, debugging, custom fixtures).
• Solid understanding of:
• QA methodologies
• regression strategies
• risk-based testing
• CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions preferred)
• Strong knowledge of API testing, data validation, and automation best practices.

AI / LLM Skills

• Experience using LLM-powered QA tools (Copilot, Codeium, test generators).
• Ability to use LLMs or Python scripts to automate repetitive quality tasks.

Plus Factors (Big Advantage)

• Experience working with Salesforce, Apex, or Salesforce data models.
• Understanding of Celonis or other process mining / data transformation platforms.
• Experience with performance testing tools like k6, JMeter, or Locust.
• Exposure to enterprise data pipelines or ETL validation.

Why This Role Is Unique

This is not a typical QA role.

You will be validating a mission-critical integration between two global platforms (Salesforce ↔ Celonis) that must remain stable, accurate, and high-performing for Fortune 500 customers.

You will also be part of the journey of transforming QA using AI, LLMs, and autonomous agents, making quality engineering faster, smarter, and more predictive.
