• Lead the implementation of comprehensive test strategies and plans based on technical specifications and business requirements.
• Drive automation-first approaches in functional, regression, performance, and integration testing.
• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines and ensure fast feedback cycles.
• Mentor and support junior SDETs through code reviews, tooling recommendations, and technical discussions.
• Collaborate with developers, product owners, and QA to ensure test coverage, traceability, and quality benchmarks are met.
• Contribute to test data management, mocking, and virtualization strategies to improve test reliability and independence.
• Track quality metrics, analyze defect trends, and proactively drive improvements.

• Strong programming skills in Java with a test automation focus.
• 1+ years of experience with Python with a test automation focus.
• Hands-on expertise with Playwright, Selenium, or equivalent for web automation
• Proficiency with API testing tools such as Postman, REST-assured, or similar.
• Strong knowledge of testing principles, SDLC, Agile methodology, and defect lifecycle.
• Solid understanding of RESTful APIs, microservices architecture, and backend testing strategies.
• Familiarity with cloud platforms like AWS or GCP.
  
  

Nice-to-Have:

• Experience with containerized environments (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
• Experience with TypeScript
• Experience with static code analysis and test coverage tools.
• Experience building automation frameworks from scratch and integrating with CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab).
