Senior QA Automation Engineer (Playwright / Angular 20+)

Role Overview

We are looking for a Senior QA Automation Engineer with 5+ years of experience to lead the testing strategy for our Angular 20+ ecosystem. You won't just be "writing scripts"—you will be architecting a highspeed, AIaccelerated testing framework that integrates directly into our GitHub Actions pipelines. Your mission is to eliminate flakiness, optimize execution time, and ensure our rapid deployment cycles are backed by rocksolid confidence.

Our Proposed Tech Stack

• Core: Playwright (TypeScript)
• Framework Architecture: Page Object Model (POM) with ObjectOriented principles.
• Environment: Angular 20+ (Signals, Standalone Components).
• CI/CD: GitHub Actions with Parallel Sharding.
• AI Tools: GitHub Copilot / AIdriven test generation and failure analysis.
• Reporting: Allure Framework or Playwright Trace Viewer.

Key Responsibilities

• Framework Engineering: Build and maintain an automated test suite using Playwright (TypeScript), applying strict ObjectOriented patterns and the Page Object Model.
• AIDriven Development: Proactively use Generative AI to accelerate test authoring, generate complex test data, and assist in refactoring legacy test code.
• Angular Specialization: Collaborate with devs to test Angular 20+ features, ensuring deep integration with the DOM and handling asynchronous state changes efficiently.
• CI/CD Pipeline Management: Own the integration of tests within GitHub Actions. You will be responsible for optimizing running time via sharding and parallel execution to keep feedback loops under 10 minutes.
• Advanced Debugging: Use browser dev tools and Playwright traces to diagnose and fix flaky tests. You understand why a test fails in a headless environment even when it passes locally.
• Test Strategy: Design and execute Smoke and Regression suites that balance coverage with execution speed.

Technical Requirements

• Experience: 5+ years in Professional QA Automation.
• Playwright Mastery: Deep handson experience writing and maintaining tests in Playwright (TS/JS).
• Web Technologies: Expertlevel knowledge of HTML/DOM and CSS Selectors. You can navigate complex shadow DOMs and dynamic Angular components with ease.
• Testing Fundamentals: Proven ability in test data management and designing reusable testing patterns.
• Tooling & Reporting: Experience setting up comprehensive reporting frameworks (like Allure) that provide clear "reasonforfailure" insights to the whole team.
• Optimization Mindset: You don't just write tests; you optimize them for speed and reliability.

Bonus Points

• Experience with Visual Regression testing.
• Experience with API testing within the same Playwright framework for "Contract Testing."
• Active use of AI coding assistants to improve workflow efficiency.

Why Join Us?

You will have the autonomy to propose and implement the latest automation technologies. We don't believe in "manualfirst" testing; we believe in a developercentric, automationheavy culture where your work directly impacts the speed of our releases.
