Key Responsibilities:

Test Automation & Framework Architecture

• Architect and maintain robust, reusable test automation frameworks for UI, API, and backend systems.
• Develop automated test suites using Playwright (primary), Selenium, PyTest, JUnit, or equivalent.
• Implement Page Object Model, Screenplay, or component-based design patterns for maintainable test code.
• Build data-driven and keyword-driven testing capabilities to support complex business scenarios.
• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or similar platforms.
• Implement shift-left testing practices - embedding quality gates early in the development lifecycle.
• Complete all assigned, mandatory training within the timeframe provided
• Conduct and/or participate in regularly scheduled 1:1 meetings with direct manager and/or direct reports

Performance, Load & Scalability Engineering

• Design and execute performance test strategies for critical systems: load testing, stress testing, spike testing, soak testing, and capacity planning.
• Build and maintain performance test suites using JMeter, Gatling, k6, Locust, or equivalent tools.
• Define performance baselines, SLAs, and acceptance thresholds for response time, throughput, error rate, and resource utilisation.
• Conduct bottleneck analysis using APM tools (Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic, AppDynamics) and system-level profiling (CPU, memory, I/O, thread dumps, GC analysis).
• Execute scalability validation for microservices, APIs, and database layers under production-like traffic patterns.
• Integrate performance tests into CI/CD pipelines for continuous performance regression detection.
• Produce performance test reports with clear findings, recommendations, and risk assessments for stakeholders.

Quality Strategy & Collaboration

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (developers, product, DevOps, SRE) to define test strategies, acceptance criteria, and quality goals.
• Analyse test results, identify root causes of failures, and drive resolution with development teams.
• Contribute to release planning and risk assessment by providing data-driven quality and performance insights.
• Mentor junior SDETs and QA engineers, promoting best practices in test design, automation, and performance engineering.
• Stay current with industry trends and emerging tools in test automation, performance engineering, and DevOps.

AI-Augmented Quality Engineering

• Leverage AI tools (GitHub Copilot, Cursor IDE, or equivalent) to accelerate test script development and maintenance.
• Explore and implement AI-assisted test case generation from requirements and user stories.
• Build or adopt AI-driven failure triage and root cause analysis workflows.
• Evaluate emerging AI testing tools and recommend adoption where they deliver measurable value

• Complete all assigned, mandatory training within the timeframe provided
• Conduct and/or participate in regularly scheduled 1:1 meetings with direct manager and/or direct reports
