Description
About the role
What you will do:
-
Design, build, and evolve test automation frameworks and internal tooling (Playwright + TypeScript as primary stack)
-
Act as owner of the test ecosystem, including repositories, architecture, and long-term maintainability
-
Define and enforce testing standards, guidelines, and best practices across engineering teams
-
Enable developers to write effective tests by providing abstractions, utilities, and reusable components
-
Drive test architecture decisions (structure, layering, fixtures, data handling, isolation strategies)
-
Collaborate with teams to improve testability of systems (APIs, frontend, data flows) without directly owning feature tests
-
Own and optimize CI/CD test pipelines (e.g., Jenkins), focusing on speed, reliability, and scalability
-
Identify systemic issues (flakiness, instability, slow feedback loops) and implement structural solutions, not patches
-
Design and maintain test data management and environment orchestration strategies
-
Define, implement, and evolve quality gates and metrics (coverage, reliability, execution time, signal quality)
-
Support teams in debugging complex failures by providing observability and diagnostic tooling
-
Explore and integrate AI-driven testing capabilities to improve productivity and test robustness
-
Mentor engineers and promote a quality engineering mindset across the organization

Deep expertise in Playwright ecosystem (custom reporters, fixtures, plugins, parallelization strategies)
-
Experience with GraphQL testing tooling and schema-driven validation
-
Familiarity with quality gate systems (e.g., SonarQube / SonarCloud) and defining engineering-wide standards
-
Experience with test data platforms (dynamic data generation, seeding, environment control)
-
Exposure to AI-assisted testing / LLM-based tooling
-
Backend development experience (Node.js preferred)
-
Experience with containerization (Docker) and ephemeral environments
-
Strong understanding of observability (logs, metrics, tracing) applied to test systems
-
Experience in organizations where testing is decentralized but governed centrally
