We are seeking a high-caliber QA Automation Engineer. This role requires a strong foundation in automation fundamentals (selectors, waits, test design, framework patterns), and hands-on Playwright experience to deliver reliable and maintainable automated test coverage.

Project Mandate

Understand and rationalize legacy/manual test suites

Convert prioritized manual test cases to Playwright automation

Ensure stable CI execution with reporting and traceability

Improve regression execution speed through Playwright parallelism

Key Responsibilities

1) Manual → Automation Migration

Analyze and understand legacy manual test cases (test steps, data, expected outcomes)

Identify gaps, ambiguities, and missing dependencies early

Convert prioritized test cases into Playwright automation aligned to agreed standards

Support test case rationalization: remove duplicates, improve clarity, tag critical coverage

2) Playwright Automation Development

Develop clean, maintainable Playwright automation scripts using TypeScript/JavaScript (preferred) or Java

Implement robust locator strategies (data-testid, role selectors, stable DOM strategy)

Leverage Playwright capabilities:

auto-waiting, trace viewer, screenshots/video

parallel execution, sharding, tagging

network interception (where required)

3) API Testing & Data Validation

Build and maintain API automation tests using:

RestAssured (Java) and/or Playwright API Request context

Postman (for quick validations)

Validate data integrity and end-to-end flows across UI + API (where applicable)

4) CI/CD & Reporting

Integrate test execution into CI/CD pipelines:

Jenkins / GitHub Actions / Azure DevOps

Maintain execution reports:

Allure / Playwright HTML reports / Extent reports

Perform RCA for failures and reduce flakiness through engineering improvements

5) Delivery Governance (Fixed Bid Mindset)

Work with leads to follow:

estimation, burn down tracking, velocity management

change control when test scope expands

Maintain documentation required for handover:

automation coverage, known gaps, execution guide

Required Skills (Must Have)

Playwright (Critical)

Strong hands-on Playwright implementation experience

Solid knowledge of TypeScript/JavaScript (preferred) or Java-based Playwright

Expertise in writing stable UI tests:

locators, auto-waits, assertion

retries (used responsibly)

handling dynamic elements, iframe, new tabs, downloads

Automation Engineering Fundamentals

Understanding of framework patterns:

Page Object Model / fixtures-based approach

data-driven strategies

reusable utilities (auth, common flows, assertions)

Strong debugging skills:

logs, traces, screenshots/video interpretation

CI/CD + Tools

Jenkins / GitHub Actions (pipeline execution, triggers, artifacts)

Git (branching, pull requests, code reviews)

API Testing

Rest Assured and/or Playwright API

Postman for validations

Strong understanding of request/response validation

Must Have

Selenium WebDriver with Java (legacy understanding helps migration)

Appium basics (if mobile emulation / mobile flows are needed)

Docker / Selenium Grid / containerized execution

SQL skills for backend validations

Test management tools: Jira + Zephyr/Xray/TestRail

Regulated domain maturity (healthcare/fintech): audit trails, PII/PHI awareness

Process Requirements

Strong Agile delivery experience (Scrum ceremonies)

Ability to create/update structured test documentation and maintain traceability
