QA Automation Engineer I

What You’ll Do:

• Build, update, and maintain automated test scripts using Playwright (TypeScript/JavaScript) for core UI and API test scenarios.

• Contribute to the existing automation framework by following established patterns, naming conventions, and code quality standards.

• Write clean, readable, and reusable test code with basic documentation so others can understand and maintain it.

• Execute automated test suites, analyze failures, and distinguish product defects from test issues with support when needed.

• Assist with test coverage for new features, regression areas, and high-risk user journeys.

• Collaborate with developers, product managers, and QA teammates to clarify requirements and identify test scenarios early.

• Perform API validation for REST endpoints using Playwright, Postman, or similar tools.

• Support CI execution of test suites in GitHub Actions or similar pipelines and help investigate unstable runs.

• Use logs, browser traces, and debugging tools to troubleshoot failed tests and basic environment issues.

• Participate in code reviews and incorporate feedback to improve automation quality and engineering practices.

• Contribute to manual and exploratory testing when automation is not the right immediate solution.

• Continuously improve your testing craft, product understanding, and automation skills through feedback and learning.

What You’ll Bring:

• 1–3 years of experience in software testing, with hands-on exposure to automation for web-based or SaaS products.
• Practical experience with Playwright and TypeScript/JavaScript for writing or maintaining automated tests.
• Good understanding of testing fundamentals, including test case design, regression coverage, defect reporting, and risk-based thinking.
• Basic understanding of automation concepts such as selectors, assertions, test data handling, reusable functions, and test structure.
• Working knowledge of API testing for REST services using tools such as Playwright API testing or Postman.
• Basic familiarity with Git and CI/CD workflows such as GitHub Actions.
• Ability to investigate straightforward test failures using logs, screenshots, traces, and developer tools.
• Comfort working in a collaborative, cross-functional product environment.
• Willingness to learn from feedback, ask good questions, and improve incrementally.
• Good English communication skills for work.
Nice to have:
• Experience with Docker in local test execution or CI environments.
• Familiarity with basic SQL and validating data in databases.
