About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Test automation analysis, design & implementation
Review and analyse requirements, user stories and acceptance criteria to identify test conditions suitable for automation and define appropriate coverage.
Design, implement and maintain automated functional and regression tests for web, API and other application layers in line with agreed standards and frameworks.
Create and maintain reusable test components, data builders and utilities to support efficient automated testing.
Estimate effort for automation tasks and provide input into release planning.
Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines so that suites run reliably on every build and before releases.
Monitor automated test runs, investigate failures and distinguish between product defects, script issues and environmental problems.
Ensure test results and logs are clear, traceable and accessible, allowing quick identification of root causes.
Provide regular reporting on automation coverage, pass rates and key quality indicators for assigned areas.
Log defects identified through automated tests in the defect tracking system, with clear steps to reproduce, expected vs actual results and supporting evidence.
Re-test fixed issues using both automated and targeted manual tests where required and verify that corrections have not introduced regressions.
Take quality ownership for selected features, modules or flows, ensuring adequate automated and manual coverage across releases.
Proactively identify gaps in automation and propose additional tests or improvements to existing scripts.
Work as an active member of the development team, participating in team meetings, planning sessions and reviews as required.
Collaborate closely with developers to understand technical implementation details, agree on testability and support faster defect resolution.
Partner with Manual QA colleagues to define the right split between automated and manual testing and to keep regression packs current.
Escalate significant quality concerns or blockers to the QA Team Leader in a timely, structured way.
Contribute to the design, extension and refactoring of test automation frameworks to improve reliability, readability and maintainability.
Promote good engineering practices in test automation (clean code, version control, code review, naming conventions, proper assertions).
Evaluate and recommend new tools or approaches (for UI, API, performance or other test types) where they can add value.
Help document standards, guidelines and examples for automation within the QA team and wider engineering organisation.
Follow data protection and information security guidelines when working with test data, environments and tools.
Ensure automated tests and pipelines comply with internal quality standards and agreed procedures.
