So the ending -a here is the feminine singular definite article.

Why does vânzătoarea end in -a?

That -a is the attached definite article for this feminine noun.

The noun is:

• o vânzătoare = a saleswoman
• vânzătoarea = the saleswoman

This is a very common Romanian pattern: the article is added to the noun itself.
