• Develop AI agents for test case generation using product specs, user flows, and historical defects
• Implement self-healing automation to improve test stability and reduce maintenance overhead
• Test APIs for resiliency, latency, and performance across many components.
• Assist in the process and plan for extending all tests and bring them to automated build tests
• Collaborate with developers and product owners to understand customer's needs, focus on important features of the application, database use and have automate everything mind set
• Understand how to create reusable components in projects to distribute as libraries and packages, for consumption across other applications
• Triage potential problems with logging solutions, and identify the best course of action for test coverage at a unit, integration and e2e level, for future mitigation during production incidents.
• Interface with service teams on a regular basis and execute POCs or workshops that enable improvements to the testing lifecycle. Some examples include: training newer team members on existing frameworks, soliciting feedback on potential tools or utilities that would improve confidence in shipping, and speaking and facilitating at Communities of Practice
