Accountabilities

• Design and maintain a comprehensive test automation strategy in collaboration with Test Managers and Architects, considering application architecture, technology stacks, and third-party integrations.
• Own the selection of automation tools, technologies, frameworks, and practices for component, feature, integration, system, and acceptance testing.
• Create scalable automation frameworks and establish best practices across QA activities, ensuring maintainability, performance, and long-term effectiveness.
• Provide technical leadership in CI/CD implementation by integrating automated testing and establishing appropriate quality gates within delivery pipelines.
• Guide QA Engineers in standardizing testing practices, tools, coding approaches, and automation processes, while providing training and technical support.
• Continuously evaluate new testing technologies and identify automation opportunities that can improve efficiency, coverage, reliability, and resource utilization.
• Optimize test execution through techniques such as parallel testing, code refactoring, and framework performance improvements.
• Analyze and determine appropriate automated and manual testing approaches, including acceptance, integration, system, and performance testing.
• Design performance test plans, execute performance tests, analyze results, and communicate findings and recommendations to project teams.
• Record test results, track defects, verify software fixes, and ensure automation criteria are satisfied before acceptance.
• Estimate testing effort accurately, coordinate testing activities with team members, and contribute to delivery planning.
• Participate in product design and development activities to ensure appropriate test coverage and alignment with end-user requirements, quality objectives, and release schedules.
• Collaborate with program and development management teams throughout the product lifecycle to address technical issues, resolve quality concerns, and maintain delivery commitments.
• Prepare defect tracking information and provide clear status reports on testing activities and quality metrics to relevant stakeholders.

Requirements

• Demonstrable professional experience with programming languages, particularly Python, and strong ability to develop maintainable test automation code.
• Proven experience designing and implementing test automation frameworks using technologies such as Python, Playwright, Selenium, or comparable tools.
• Demonstrable experience designing and implementing performance testing frameworks, with hands-on knowledge of tools such as JMeter.
• Strong understanding of software testing methodologies, automation architecture, CI/CD practices, quality gates, and test optimization techniques.
• Strong mathematical aptitude, analytical thinking, and problem-solving abilities, with the capacity to investigate complex technical issues and develop effective solutions.
• High attention to detail and a consistent ability to deliver accurate, reliable, and high-quality work.
• Awareness of current technology and testing trends, with the ability to assess their practical value within a commercial software environment.
