A DAY IN THE LIFE

• Define the long-term technical vision, architect, and govern the enterprise-wide automated testing framework, including its design, scalability, and maintenance.
• Partner with the Senior Manager, QA Engineering to define long-term Test Strategies, conduct in-depth Test Automation Tool Evaluation, and lead holistic QA Process Improvement initiatives.
• Design, implement, and govern the seamless integration of intelligent and self-healing test execution pipelines into the Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline for continuous regression and post-deployment validation in all environments.
• Drive the strategic adoption and integration of AI/ML capabilities, including leveraging intelligent tools for optimized test generation, predictive analytics, and continuous self-healing automation frameworks.
• Establish and enforce best practices and architectural standards for the development of unit, regression, and integration test suites across all teams.
• Drive the standardization and integration of all QA tooling (e.g., Xray, Katalon, Playwright) to create a seamless, cohesive test ecosystem and maintain traceability.
• Establish ambitious automation coverage goals (e.g., above 80%) and oversee the technical implementation of test automation integration with complex internal and external systems.
• Collaborate with cross-functional leadership and business stakeholders to define test scope, ensure comprehensive system requirements coverage, and align automation strategy with product goals.
• Act as a primary mentor, actively coaching team members on advanced automation principles, architecture, and coding excellence.
• Conduct comprehensive reviews of test automation code and architectural patterns to enforce coding standards, optimization, and cross-team reusability.
• Provide technical leadership and expertise to automation and development teams for speeding up troubleshooting and resolving complex production defects and incidents.
• Define and drive key performance indicators (KPIs) and metrics to measure the effectiveness, efficiency, and ROI of the overall Test Automation strategy.
• Develop advanced monitoring and reporting mechanisms for test results, prioritizing high-impact defects and leading root cause analysis for systemic issues.
• Standardize the centralized management, scheduling, and storage of all test artifacts, data, and execution results for enterprise visibility.

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TABLE

At least 8-10+ years of relevant experience in various methodologies, applying different strategies, and building test automation from the ground up across multiple environments and platforms:

• Web: Building frameworks using Playwright and Katalon.
• Mobile: Architecting strategies for iOS and Android.
• API: Automating contract testing using Postman tools.
• Performance: Driving scalability using JMeter and BlazeMeter.
• Salesforce: Automating complex Salesforce CRM platform workflows.
• Agile: Leading automation within Scaled Agile environments.
• Management: Governing quality using enterprise Test Tools.
• CI/CD: Embedding automated suites into deployment pipelines.
• AI: Leveraging AI for self-healing test scripts.
• Integration: Connecting tools into unified QA ecosystems.

Required Skills:

• Programming: Writes code using Java and TypeScript.
• Architecture: Designs end-to-end QA automation frameworks.
• Platforms: Advanced Playwright, Katalon, and Appium too
