  • Coach squads on automation best practice; mentor junior QA engineers.
  • Contribute to non-functional testing (accessibility, performance, security) where needed.
  • Keep the team abreast of emerging Playwright features, browser quirks, and testing trends.

Experience & Skills
  • 5+ years in QA automation with 2 + years hands-on Playwright (TypeScript/JavaScript).
  • Proven track record creating frameworks from scratch and running > 1000 tests per release.
  • CI/CD pipelines in containerised execution in Docker/Kubernetes.
  • Familiar with BDD (Cucumber, Gherkin) and test data management strategies.
  • Strong analytical mindset and debugging skills.
  • Desirable: experience with Pact or other contract-testing tools; exposure to performance or security testing.
  • BSc/BA in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical expertise.

What We Offer
  • A collaborative, innovation driven environment where quality owns equal seat at the table with code.
  • Competitive compensation and flexible work arrangements (hybrid / remote).
  • The chance to influence testing culture on cutting edge projects alongside industry leaders.
