API testing heavy, Manual QA, CI/CD Test Failure Debugging, Flaky Test Stabilization, Playwright, Root Cause Analysis, Selenium, Wait Strategies, Manual Testing

QA Talent Provider is Looking for:

Role Objective:

Validate and debug code-driven test environments. This is not test execution. The role focuses on reproducing failures, identifying root causes, and improving reliability of automated test workflows. This role involves running provided coding tasks, identifying flaws and debugging what's broken.

Candidate Responsibilities:

  • Run Playwright based test tasks and reliably reproduce failures locally and in CI.
  • Investigate why a test failed. Determine whether the issue is in the test harness, repo setup, environment, or evaluator logic.
  • Diagnose flaky or inconsistent test behavior across runs.
  • Improve reliability by proposing concrete fixes such as better assertions, mocks, waits, or deterministic validation.
  • Produce tight bug reports WITH_REPLACED clear repro steps, logs, stack traces, and failing outputs.

Our ideal candidate should possess the following background:


  • QA Automation Engineer, SDET, or Dev-in-Test as past roles WITH_REPLACED strong ownership of test suites.
  • Hands-on Playwright preferred. Selenium or Cypress acceptable if the candidate has written and debugged frameworks.
  • Experience stabilizing CI pipelines and resolving flaky tests.
  • Comfortable reading logs, traces, and failure outputs to isolate root cause.
  • Has worked on maintaining or improving automation reliability, not just adding new test cases.
  • Experience reproducing issues independently using minimal setup or local environments before escalating.
  • Familiar WITH_REPLACED debugging across layers such as test code, browser behavior, environment config, and CI execution flow.
  • Used version control and CI tools as part of daily workflow to analyze failures and validate fixes.

Skills That Are Must-haves


  • Automation test development in Playwright or similar
  • CI failure triage and debugging
  • Flaky test analysis and stabilization
  • Strong understanding of selectors, waits, assertions, and deterministic test design
  • Ability to isolate failures across layers
  • Clear reproduction and defect documentation

Profile that will not be a fit


  • Pure manual QA or test execution focused
  • API testing heavy without automation ownership
  • Only writing test cases without debugging responsibility
