### **Responsibilities** * Develop, maintain, and execute automated test scripts using industry\-standard automation tools and frameworks (e.g., Selenium, WebdriverIO, Cypress, Playwright). * Collaborate with developers, product managers, and other team members to define test strategies and integrate testing into the CI/CD pipeline. * Identify test cases that should be automated and maintain test coverage across features and platforms. * Analyze test results, log defects, and track their resolution to completion. * Participate in sprint planning, requirement reviews, and sign\-off activities. * Ensure test environments and test data are properly maintained and version\-controlled. * Continuously improve testing processes and automation frameworks for efficiency and effectiveness. * Monitor test execution and optimize performance to reduce test cycle time and manual efforts. * Maintain detailed test reports, logs, and documentation of automation test cases. * Participate in code reviews and ensure code quality and best practices. * Work closely with stakeholders to meet project timelines and deliverables. **Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for Success** * Test automation coverage across modules and platforms. * Reduction in manual testing efforts and time\-to\-release. * Timely identification and resolution of defects in pre\-production environments. * Stability and reliability of automated test suites (e.g., low false positives). * Collaboration and communication effectiveness with engineering and product teams. * No. of total defects detected through automated tests vs. manual, reflecting the effectiveness of automation in identifying issues early ### **Qualifications** * Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field. * 1–2 years of experience in software, with a strong focus on automation. * Hands\-on experience with one or more automation frameworks (e.g., Selenium, WebdriverIO, Cypress, Playwright, TestNG, JUnit). * Proficiency in scripting or programming languages such as JavaScript, Python, or Java. * Familiarity with REST API testing tools (e.g., Postman, REST Assured). * Good understanding of software development lifecycle and agile methodologies. * Good experience in software test management tools (e.g., JIRA, TFS, or Azure DevOps). * Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git) and CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions). * Strong attention to detail, analytical thinking, and a proactive approach to quality. * Strong problem\-solving and debugging skills. * Certified ISTQB Foundation Level (CTFL) is a Plus.
