Job description

Test Automation Engineer

We are looking for a motivated and technically skilled Test Automation Engineer to lead the internal development and optimization of the Online Remote Update Technology.

Role Overview

Design, develop, and maintain scalable automation frameworks in Java using clean code, modular design, and automation patterns (POM, Factory, Singleton, Strategy, Data‑Driven). Create and maintain BDD scenarios with Cucumber/Gherkin aligning behavior specs with automated tests. Build and execute TestNG test suites with annotations, grouping, parameterization, and parallel runs. Use Maven/Gradle for dependency management, multi‑module setups, and build integrations. Automate UI testing with Selenium WebDriver using stable locators, synchronization, and reusable browser utilities. Perform API testing and automation using RestAssured/Postman ensuring end‑to‑end backend coverage. Validate backend data using SQL queries for data integrity within automated workflows. Work with Git/GitHub for branching, pull requests, reviews, and repository governance. Implement and troubleshoot CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, resolving flaky tests, environment issues, and dependency conflicts. Generate and maintain detailed automation reports using TestNG, Allure, Extent Reports, etc. Collaborate across Agile teams, analyzing user stories, creating automated test cases, ensuring coverage, traceability (Jira), and maintaining documentation in Confluence. Optimize automation performance, ensure multi‑environment/browser coverage, enhance framework capabilities, and support DevOps/shift‑left testing initiatives.
