Job DescriptionWhat you will do:- Leverage AI (Playwright MCP) to accelerate test automation, refactoring, debugging, and defect triage
- Build scalable, reusable automation frameworks for API (REST/GraphQL) and UI testing
- Develop and execute automated suites for functional, regression, and integration coverage
- Improve test stability by identifying and resolving flaky tests through root cause analysis
- Integrate automation into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions), enabling quality gates and continuous testing
- Partner with engineering teams to enhance product testability and streamline quality practices
- Track and report quality metrics (coverage, stability, defect leakage) using Practitest
- Manage and scale test execution via Selenium Grid and distributed environments
Basic Qualifications- Bachelor's degree, or equivalent work experience
- 10 or more years of relevant work experience with programming concepts, development logic or automating highly complex processes
Preferred Skills/Experience- Hands-on experience with modern test automation frameworks (Playwright, Selenium)

- Strong proficiency in API (REST/GraphQL) and UI/web automation testing
- Solid programming skills in JavaScript/TypeScript (or comparable languages)
- Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions / GHCP)
- Strong understanding of automation best practices (parallel execution, maintainability, flaky test mitigation)
- Experience with test execution environments (Selenium Grid, distributed testing)
- Familiarity with test management tools (Practitest or equivalent) and quality metrics reporting
- Exposure to continuous testing practices and quality gate implementation
- Experience working in Agile/DevOps environments with cross-functional engineering teams
Key ResponsibilitiesAI-Driven Automation Acceleration- Apply AI-assisted techniques to accelerate:
- Test case generation and automation development
