This role requires a highly skilled engineer capable of auditing the current automation, rebuilding unstable areas, improving test strategy, and ensuring reliable, defect-free releases.
You will collaborate closely with Development, DevOps, and Product teams to implement best practices, optimize testing workflows, and elevate overall product quality.
Key Responsibilities 1. Automation Quality & Test Architecture
Audit existing automation to identify false positives, flakiness, outdated libraries, missing regression coverage, and low-value tests.
Refactor or rebuild automation for stability, maintainability, and scalability.
Define the automation scope for the upcoming delivery cycle (new features, high-risk areas, historical bugs).
Implement best-practice patterns: Page Object Model, reusable fixtures, API abstraction, stable waits.
2. Functional & Regression Testing
Perform manual testing for new features with unclear or incomplete acceptance criteria.
Build/improve a complete regression suite integrated into CI/CD pipelines.
Validate bug fixes and ensure test coverage prevents reoccurrence.
Report defect patterns and risk areas to leadership.
3. Testing Process & Standards
Create/update test strategy, test cases (manual + automated), test data plans, and acceptance criteria.
Document all test results clearly, ensuring traceability and reproducibility.
Enhance collaboration between QA, Dev, and Product to reduce defect leakage.
4. Environment & CI/CD
Work with DevOps to stabilize QA/UAT environments.
Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines with reliable pass/fail signals.
Reduce test flakiness and ensure poor-quality builds are blocked.
5. Release Quality Ownership
Validate release candidates end-to-end.
Execute smoke, sanity, exploratory, and performance testing when needed.
Provide clear go/no-go indicators based on quality KPIs.
Requirements Technical Skills
Strong experience with automation frameworks: Cypress, Playwright, Selenium, WebdriverIO (depending on the stack).
API automation using Postman, REST Assured, or Playwright API.
Deep knowledge of waits, DOM handling, test data mocking/stubbing, and browser drivers.
Solid SQL knowledge for data validation.
Experience testing distributed systems, microservices, caching layers, and cloud environments.
Hands‑on experience integrating automation into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab, Jenkins, Azure DevOps).
Strong Git branching, PR review, and version‑control best practices.
Quality Engineering Expertise
Ability to reverse‑engineer unclear or undocumented features.
Strong root‑cause analysis skills — understanding not only what fails, but why.
Ability to validate and correct inaccurate automation coverage claims.
Solid regression testing strategy.
Experience with performance/load testing tools (JMeter, k6) is a plus.
Soft Skills
Excellent communication with the ability to challenge assumptions diplomatically.
High sense of ownership — proactive, autonomous, and structured.
Transparent risk communication with PM/CTO and cross‑functional teams.
