Job description

In this role, you will leverage AI and test automation to enhance and expedite our testing processes, govern and evolve our test frameworks, and develop a comprehensive monitoring and alerting system. Your expertise will ensure the robustness, efficiency, and reliability of our software delivery pipeline.

Key Responsibilities:

AI-driven Test Automation:

• Implement and utilize AI and intelligent agents to accelerate test generation processes.
• Transition from manual test case development to AI-driven automation solutions, enhancing overall testing efficiency.

Test case design and documentation:

• Define clear, concise, and comprehensive test cases based on requirements, specifications, and user stories. Ensure test cases cover both positive and negative scenarios, edge cases, and system interactions. Maintain traceability between test cases and product features.

Test Suite Development & Maintenance:

• Organize and maintain test suites to reflect product changes and evolving test coverage needs. Refactor outdated or redundant tests, ensuring relevance and accuracy. Maintain a clear structure for manual and automated test suites for ease of access and reusability.

Test Framework Implementation and Governance:

• Design and implement a test automation framework using Playwright for end-to-end web testing that is modular, maintainable, and scalable.
• Create a blueprint and best practices for the QA team to onboard and contribute new automated test cases seamlessly.
• Define coding standards, version control practices, branching strategies, and code review guidelines for the QA automation codebase.
• Integrate test automation into CI/CD pipelines with real-time test reporting.
• Explore and integrate AI-powered tools for test case generation, flakiness detection, and intelligent exploratory testing (e.g., Testim, Mabl, Diffblue, or custom LLM-based test generation tools).
• Champion shift-left testing practices by collaborating with developers, product managers, and DevOps to catch issues early.
• Oversee the maintenance and continuous improvement of the existing test framework.
• Analyze test failures and test escapes to identify root causes and implement solutions.
• Foster a culture of quality through continuous improvements in testing methodologies and frameworks.

Test reporting and analytics:

• Design and develop test reports to provide visibility into the test suite's performance and failures.
• Implement an effective test failures alerting system to promptly notify feature owners and responsible developers of SUT issues and failures.

Qualifications:

• Minimum Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
• 7+ years of experience in Quality Assurance, with 3+ years architecting automation frameworks.
• Deep hands-on experience with Playwright (JavaScript/TypeScript) in a real-world production environment.
• Demonstrated experience building an automation framework from scratch, with organized test categorization, reusability, and CI/CD integration.
• Strong understanding of software testing methodologies, test planning, and test strategy.
• Familiarity with using AI to enhance testing and software development.
• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Experience with test reporting and analytics tools (e.g., Allure, ReportPortal, TestRail)
• Strong scripting and coding skills (JavaScript/TypeScript)
• Experience with test management and defect tracking systems.
• Experience with cloud-based test execution and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Familiarity with Git, Jenkins/GitHub Actions/Azure DevOps, and cloud services like AWS/GCP is a plus.
• Excellent communication, teamwork, and documentation skills, with a strong ability to advocate for best practices.

Preferred Skills:

• Hands-on experience with AI in software testing, such as using AI for test case generation, code coverage analysis, or flaky test detection.
• Knowledge of test framework design and development.
• Strong understanding of test reporting tools and technologies.
