Descripción del empleo

Responsibilities

• Analyze stories, acceptance criteria, and specifications, and design test cases with AI-assisted tooling to identify scenarios, coverage gaps, and risks before development begins.
• Define test strategy and coverage for complex UI applications, and design and implement Playwright and TypeScript automation frameworks.
• Build and maintain automated UI and API coverage in TypeScript and Playwright within the sprint, including API component tests and API automation inside end-to-end flows.
• Perform manual testing where it is required, including where automation is not possible or not sufficient, and use exploratory testing as part of that work.
• Use Postman for exploratory, contract, and functional API validation.
• Use service virtualization so UI and API suites can run when a dependency is unavailable.
• Own CI/CD integration for UI and API suites on GitHub Actions, including cross-browser and cross-platform execution on LambdaTest.
• Design test suites in TestRail and keep them aligned with automated coverage and CI results.
• Report, track, and verify defects through resolution in Jira, coordinating with developers and product teams on priority and impact.
• Use Cursor daily to write, review, and refactor tests, and use GenAI, LLMs, agentic workflows, and existing RAG and MCP solutions in test design, generation, and maintenance.
• Support release readiness for the assigned product area by reviewing Allure results.
• Monitor automation health and defect trends and raise quality concerns proactively.
• Mentor engineers when they are assigned to the area, review automation contributions, and keep framework standards and documentation current.
• Use AWS or Azure for deployment, secrets, database services, and the cloud-native infrastructure that test environments depend on.

Requirements

• 6 to 10 years of quality engineering experience across the full testing lifecycle, including manual testing where it is required, exploratory testing, defect management, and automation.
• Strong Playwright and TypeScript proficiency for UI framework design, API component tests, and API checks inside end-to-end flows.
• Experience with API validation using Postman or an equivalent tool.
• Experience with service virtualization for dependencies that are unavailable during testing.
• Experience with CI/CD and cross-browser execution using GitHub Actions, LambdaTest, or equivalent tools.
• Experience with test management and defect tracking using TestRail, Jira, or equivalent tools.
• Experience with release reporting using Allure or an equivalent tool.
• Hands‑on use of Cursor or an equivalent AI coding assistant, with working familiarity with GenAI, LLMs, agentic workflows, RAG, and MCP using existing framework capabilities.
• Understanding of microservices, REST, and GraphQL sufficient to design and execute API tests.
• Familiarity with AWS or Azure, including deployment, secrets, database services, and cloud‑native test infrastructure.
• Experience mentoring junior engineers.
• Experience governing automation frameworks through code review and documentation.
• Experience working on Agile teams.
• Analytical skills to define test scope and coverage.
• Ability to communicate clearly with developers, product, and delivery teams.

Nice to have

• Hands‑on experience implementing AI‑driven test generation and execution, self‑healing automation, intelligent test selection, or predictive defect analysis within a Playwright and TypeScript platform.
• Experience bringing SAST, SCA, DAST, and code quality thresholds into UI or API pipelines (Checkmarx, Snyk, OWASP ZAP, SonarQube, or equivalent).
• Knowledge of AI‑driven test optimization and coverage analytics (SeaLights or equivalent).
• Real‑device or mobile‑web execution on LambdaTest or an equivalent platform.
• Exposure to enterprise SaaS platforms such as ERP, CRM, CMS, or LMS systems in a QE context.
• Familiarity with performance or accessibility testing approaches.
