Job Summary
The QA Automation Engineer is a specialized quality engineering role responsible for designing, developing, executing, and maintaining AI assisted, code first automated tests across enterprise applications. This role requires mandatory, day-to-day use of AI-assisted automation capabilities to generate, execute, and maintain test coverage as a core expectation of the position. The QA Automation Engineer works closely with QA, Engineering, and DevOps teams to ensure automated testing continuously adapts to changes in requirements, code, and system behavior, using AI as a core productivity and quality mechanism, not an optional enhancement.
Responsibilities and Duties
AI Assisted Automation Development & Execution
· Consistently apply AI-assisted techniques as the primary mechanism for test creation, expansion, and maintenance.
· Design, implement, and execute automated tests using Playwright, leveraging AI assisted workflows to generate, refine, and maintain test scenarios.
· Translate business and technical requirements into automated test scenarios using AI-supported analysis of acceptance criteria, user stories, and system behavior.
· Actively use AI driven assistance to expand test coverage by identifying relevant combinations, edge cases, and data variations.
· Validate system behavior across supported environments and browsers, ensuring automation reflects real user workflows and evolving usage patterns.
Analysis, Reporting & Risk Identification
· Analyze automation results using AI-supported insights to identify functional gaps, regressions, and quality risks.
· Distinguish true product defects from automation, data, or environment issues, reducing noise and improving signal quality.
· Produce clear defect reports with actionable evidence (logs, traces, screenshots, diagnostics).
· Communicate automation findings and quality risks clearly to stakeholders.
Tooling, Automation & CI/CD Integration
· Develop and maintain automated test suites and reusable automation components enhanced through AI assisted creation and maintenance.
· Execute automation within CI/CD pipelines, ensuring fast, repeatable, and reliable feedback.
· Improve automation stability and maintainability by continuously refining selectors, synchronization, test data, and execution patterns with AI support.
Cross Functional Collaboration
· Partner with Engineering to improve testability and automation readiness of the system.
· Support root cause analysis for recurring quality issues detected through automation.
· Participate in release readiness and go/no-go discussions using automation evidence.
Continuous Improvement & Learning
· Continuously improve automation effectiveness, coverage relevance, and execution efficiency through AI assisted techniques.
· Contribute to documentation, shared utilities, and automation best practices.
· Actively develop proficiency in AI assisted testing approaches as part of normal role expectations.
Startdate: ASAP
Compensation: Negotiatble
Education and Experience
· Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
· 5+ years of QA experience with hands‑on automation responsibilities.
· Experience with modern automation frameworks (Playwright at least 1 year).
· Experience working in CI/CD environments.
· Familiarity with API testing, data validation, and distributed systems.
Qualifications and Skills
· Strong automation fundamentals combined with AI‑assisted problem solving.
· Demonstrated ability to effectively use AI-assisted tools as an integral part of daily automation work.
· Ability to write clean, maintainable automation code with AI support.
· Analytical mindset focused on coverage, risk, and quality signals.
· Clear communication and collaboration skills.
· Ownership of automation reliability and outcomes.
