  • Maintain and govern shared automation assets in Git-based repositories (Azure Repos or GitHub), applying effective branching strategies for collaboration.
  • Contribute to the Test Automation Roadmap in partnership with the Test Manager, measuring progress and demonstrating uplift through automation metrics.

About You

  • Proven experience as a Senior Automation Tester in enterprise-scale or government projects.
  • Strong technical skills in C#, .NET, Playwright, NUnit, Docker, and Azure DevOps.
  • Demonstrated success in building and maintaining automation frameworks for API and Dynamics 365 CRM.
