What you’ll be doing

Quality Engineering

- Partner with engineering and product teams to understand business workflows, system architecture, integrations, and technical dependencies.

- Independently identify quality risks and define an appropriate testing and automation strategy.

- Architect Scalable Automation Solutions. Design, develop, maintain, and continuously improve reliable automation frameworks and reusable test utilities for modern web applications, APIs, backend services, and integrated systems using technologies such as Playwright, TypeScript, and Python.

- Build the appropriate balance of API, integration, component, contract, data, and end-to-end automation, minimizing unnecessary dependence on UI-level testing.

- Participate in discovery, requirements refinement, technical design, and architecture discussions to identify edge cases, dependencies, testability concerns, and potential failure scenarios before development is complete.

- Integrate automated testing into CI/CD pipelines and establish effective quality gates.

- Optimize execution through parallelization, tagging, test selection, environment management, reporting, and failure diagnostics.

- Design robust API and integration validation for RESTful services and backend workflows, including request/response validation, authentication, error handling, service dependencies, and asynchronous processes.

- Validate data across databases, APIs, files, and integrated systems using SQL and programmatic approaches. Verify data integrity, transformations, reconciliation, and complex backend processing when required.
