📋 Description

• Design, build and roll out Playwright (TypeScript/JavaScript) automation frameworks and keep them stable as suites grow • Test APIs and microservice-based systems alongside the UI • Run BDD collaboratively with analysts, developers and the client • Diagnose flaky and intermittent failures and find root causes instead of adding retries • Use AI coding agents to speed up test design, authoring and maintenance, and rigorously verify their output • Define how AI-assisted and agent-driven testing is done on the project, including instruction files, reusable prompts and review gates • Extend automation coverage into mobile as project needs require, with support • Coach colleagues and share effective practices in the QA community • Explain quality risk and technical trade-offs clearly to non-technical stakeholders • Work independently, plan your own work, and influence team and wider QA community practices
