About the role

  • Designing, developing, and maintaining automation frameworks that can be reused across different types of testing (UI, API, performance, security) instead of writing isolated scripts.
  • Driving an AI-first testing strategy by integrating AI-driven solutions into the QA process.
  • Implementing and scaling Playwright-based automation across web applications (Python/Django + JavaScript/NextJS).
  • Performing manual testing where required (e.g., exploratory testing, edge cases, or quick validation), but spending the majority of time on automation.
  • Building CI/CD-integrated test systems to ensure continuous, reliable test coverage.
  • Identifying gaps, bottlenecks, and risks in automation pipelines and resolving them proactively.
  • Ensuring test reliability, maintainability, and scalability by focusing on frameworks, not one-off scripts.
  • Mentoring junior QA engineers and collaborating with developers, DevOps, and product teams to raise quality standards.

Requirements

  • Experience building reusable, scalable test frameworks instead of writing isolated scripts.
  • An AI-first approach to automation testing (test case generation, self-healing tests, AI-driven validation).

  • Hands-on expertise with Playwright for end-to-end testing.
  • Hands-on experience with manual testing.
  • Good debugging and online searching skills.
  • Good communication skills.
  • Good problem-solving skills.
Benefits
  • Permanent remote/WFH and flexible work culture.
  • Cutting-edge technology stack.
  • An AI-first approach for solving the problems.
  • Complete ownership and trust from the top management.
  • Ideas and concerns are carefully listened to by the top management.
