This role is focused on designing, developing, and executing automated test solutions to validate complex applications. The ideal candidate is a hands‑on individual contributor with a strong engineering mindset, capable of building testing frameworks and scripts that ensure high‑quality software delivery. This is a fully automation‑focused role—manual testing is not part of the responsibilities.

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable automation frameworks for web, API, database, and integration testing.
• Build reusable automated test suites for functional, regression, smoke, integration, and end‑to‑end testing.
• Develop and execute automated tests using Playwright, TypeScript, and modern testing tools.
• Create automated validation processes for front‑end applications, backend services, APIs, and databases (SQL Server).
• Enhance existing automation frameworks and introduce best practices to improve test coverage and execution efficiency.
• Implement automated data validation and quality checks across multiple systems and integrations.

Software Development & Technical Contribution

• Contribute production‑quality code to support quality engineering objectives.
• Develop custom testing utilities, frameworks, and performance test solutions.
• Participate in architecture reviews and design discussions to ensure testability and maintainability.
• Support microservices, REST APIs, cloud‑native applications, and enterprise integrations.

Quality Assurance & Continuous Improvement

• Review business requirements, user stories, technical specifications, and acceptance criteria.
• Define test strategies, test plans, test cases, and testing approaches for complex initiatives.
• Identify, document, and track software defects and quality risks.
• Perform root cause analysis and work collaboratively with development teams to resolve issues.
• Drive shift‑left testing practices and promote quality ownership across engineering teams.

DevOps & CI/CD Quality Integration

• Integrate automated tests into GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Support continuous testing initiatives within Agile and DevOps environments.
• Monitor test execution results and quality metrics.
• Establish and maintain automated quality gates within the deployment pipeline.

Required Qualifications

• Minimum 3 years of experience in software testing with a strong focus on test automation.
• Proven hands‑on experience as an individual contributor, delivering automation solutions independently.
• Strong proficiency in:
  • Playwright for end‑to‑end testing
  • TypeScript for writing automation scripts
  • Git for version control
  • Azure DevOps (ADO) pipelines or similar CI/CD tools
• Solid experience in database testing (SQL queries, data validation, backend verification).
• Strong understanding of software testing principles, test design techniques, and quality engineering practices.
• Ability to think critically and work with the mindset of a Test Engineer—anticipating edge cases, failure scenarios, and system risks.
• Experience creating and maintaining automation frameworks from the ground up.
• Strong debugging, analytical, and problem‑solving skills.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to work in a consulting/client‑facing environment.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Selenium or legacy automation frameworks.
• Prior work experience in a banking or financial services environment.
• Familiarity with API testing and tools such as Postman or REST clients.
• Knowledge of performance or security testing concepts.
• Exposure to Agile/Scrum development methodologies.

Key Competencies

• Engineering‑first mindset toward quality and automation.
• Strong ownership and accountability.
• Attention to detail and precision in test design.
• Ability to work independently and deliver high‑quality outputs.
• Continuous learning and adaptability to new tools/technologies.
