About the role

  • Audit existing automation to identify false positives, flakiness, outdated libraries, missing regression coverage, and low-value tests.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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Excellent communication with the ability to challenge assumptions diplomatically.
  • High sense of ownership — proactive, autonomous, and structured.
  • Ability to operate under tight 4-month delivery timelines.
  • Transparent risk communication with PM/CTO and cross-functional teams.
  • English: C1 required
