Requirements

• 3-5 years in software quality assurance, with at least 2-3 years focused on test automation
• Strong proficiency with JavaScript/TypeScript and modern features like async/await and Promises. You should be able to write clean, maintainable code, not just simple scripts
• Hands-on experience with any JS-based testing framework; deep experience with WebDriverIO, Cypress, or Playwright is a very strong plus. Demonstrable ability to write and debug tests, configure the config file, and utilize its services and reporters
• Solid understanding of the Page Object Model (POM) and experience building scalable test automation frameworks
• Proficiency with Git and version control workflows, including branching, pull requests, and resolving merge conflicts is absolutely essential
• Experience with CI/CD tools (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI) and integrating automated tests into deployment pipelines
• Critical ability to automate API tests and understand RESTful services. Experience with tools like Postman (for manual validation) is required
• A collaborative spirit and excellent communication skills

Responsibilities

• Develop and Enhance Test Automation: Design, build, and maintain clean, reliable, and scalable automated tests for our web applications using WebDriverIO, TypeScript, and JavaScript
• Framework Architecture: Actively contribute to our testing framework by implementing the Page Object Model (POM) and creating reusable components and utilities to keep our codebase DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself)
• Improve Test Reliability: Go beyond basic commands to handle complex scenarios involving iFrames, multiple windows, and asynchronous operations. Implement effective wait strategies to eliminate flakiness
• Integrate Testing: Develop and integrate API tests (using tools like Axios/node-fetch) within the WebDriverIO framework to ensure comprehensive end-to-end test coverage
• Champion Quality in CI/CD: Integrate automation scripts into our CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI). You'll analyze test results, troubleshoot failures, and ensure that quality gates are met for every release
• Collaborate and Innovate: Work closely with developers and product managers in an Agile environment. Participate in code reviews, advocate for testing best practices, and help drive the team's overall testing strategy

• Unlimited Paid Time off
