Major Duties And Responsibilities

Automation Engineering

• Design, build, and maintain a scalable end-to-end test automation framework using Playwright (TypeScript/JavaScript).
• Develop and maintain API test suites using Playwright APIRequestContext or Postman/Newman, covering REST and SOAP services.
• Integrate automated test suites into CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps / GitHub Actions), enforcing quality gates at every stage.
• Maintain test data strategies and environment configurations to support reliable, repeatable test execution.
• Produce clear automation reports, dashboards, and metrics to communicate coverage and quality health to stakeholders.

AI-Augmented Testing

• Leverage AI-assisted tools (e.g. GitHub Copilot, Mabl, Testim, Applitools, or LLM-based test generation) to accelerate test authoring and maintenance.
• Apply AI/ML techniques for intelligent test case prioritisation, self-healing locators, and anomaly detection in test results.
• Stay current with emerging AI testing capabilities and evaluate their applicability to the Travel Insurance tech stack.
• Contribute to establishing guardrails and best practices for responsible AI usage within the QA lifecycle.

Functional & Non-Functional Testing

• Analyse business requirements, identify gaps, and ensure comprehensive test coverage across functional modules.
• Execute and oversee regression, smoke, sanity, integration, and UAT testing cycles.
• Contribute to performance and load testing using tools such as k6 or JMeter where required.
• Validate security-related test scenarios and flag vulnerabilities in collaboration with the security team.
• Work with business analysts and product owners on acceptance criteria definition and acceptance testing.

Collaboration & Quality Culture

• Champion shift-left quality practices: embed QA thinking into planning, design, and development stages.
• Partner with developers during defect triage, root cause analysis, and test-driven development initiatives.
• Contribute to test plan creation, estimation, and risk-based testing strategies.
• Mentor junior QA team members and promote automation best practices across the team.
• Communicate risks, defect trends, and coverage status clearly to delivery leads and stakeholders.

Experience

Must-Have

• 4+ years of software testing experience, with at least 2 years focused on test automation.
• Strong hands‑on experience with Playwright (TypeScript or JavaScript) for UI and API test automation.
