The Technical Automation QA (Playwright / TypeScript) at Constructor Tech will play a critical role in designing, implementing, and evolving our automation strategy and frameworks with a focus on Playwright and TypeScript. This role combines deep technical expertise with a passion for efficiency, reliability, and innovation in testing — including the adoption of AI-driven testing and Modular Composable Platforms (MCPs).

You will collaborate closely with development, DevOps, and QA teams to ensure automation excellence across all layers of the delivery process.

Key Responsibilities

- Design, build, and maintain scalable automation frameworks using Playwright and TypeScript for web and API testing.

- Define and evolve test automation strategy, processes, and best practices to ensure consistent quality across projects.

- Develop and maintain robust, reusable test suites and utilities for regression, smoke, and integration testing.

- Integrate automation into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI) to enable continuous testing and fast feedback loops.

- Collaborate with developers and DevOps engineers to ensure test environments and data are stable and reliable.

- Apply white-box and gray-box testing techniques to ensure thorough coverage of both frontend and backend components.

- Contribute to the adoption of AI-assisted testing tools and automation intelligence for test creation, maintenance, and analytics.

- Participate in exploration and implementation of MCP-based automation components and reusable service connectors.

- Provide technical guidance through mentoring and peer reviews, helping less experienced QAs enhance their automation expertise and code quality.

- Continuously improve test performance, reliability, and reporting visibility through innovation and tool evaluation.

Requirements

- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or equivalent experience.

- 4+ years of experience in QA and automation, including 2+ years with Playwright and TypeScript.

- Proven experience in building test automation frameworks from scratch.

- Solid understanding of SDLC, QA methodologies, and automation design principles.

- Strong knowledge of TypeScript and/or Python for test development.

- Experience with REST API testing, SQL, and relational databases.

- Familiarity with Jenkins, GitLab CI, and Git for continuous integration and source control.
