MAJOR DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Automation Engineering

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.
