- CI/CD Integration: Integrate automated tests into GitHub Actions pipelines with the DevOps team.
- Bug Triage & Root Cause Analysis: Collaborate with BAs and developers to investigate failures, analyzing logs and metrics.
- Load & Performance Testing: Design and execute load tests to identify system bottlenecks and ensure high-concurrency handling.
- Mentorship & Standards: Establish automated testing best practices, perform code reviews, and uplift the QA teams quality mindset.
Key Requirements
- Deep expertise with Playwright for web automation and JUnit test suite development.
- Experience managing complex test data lifecycles, including data masking, synthetic data, and automated database seeding/cleanup (SQL).
- Proven experience in manual testing, including Regression Testing, Sanity Testing, and UAT.
- Coding proficiency in Kotlin, with ability to read Java (Spring Boot) and TypeScript (React).
- Experience testing RESTful APIs, handling authentication (OAuth2/JWT) and validating complex JSON payloads.
