The must-have capability is the ability to independently write effective Playwright tests. Frontend and backend engineering context is preferred, but not required; the expectation is that the QE can understand enough UI behavior, service contracts, test data setup, and failure signals to build meaningful coverage and troubleshoot issues effectively. The role may also require maintaining some legacy FTA coverage where it still exists.

Primary Responsibilities

Author, execute, debug,



and maintain TypeScript + Playwright functional tests for UI and API workflows
Create reliable UI automation using stable selectors, Page Object Model patterns, reusable fixtures, and appropriate wait strategies
Create API-layer tests that validate service behavior, request/response contracts, authentication, error handling, and negative paths
Maintain remaining legacy FTA tests where needed, including understanding existing test intent and preserving critical coverage while modern coverage evolves
Design deterministic test data setup and cleanup patterns to avoid cross-test pollution and reduce environment-dependent failures
Think through edge cases, boundary conditions, data permutations, async behavior, integration points, and failure modes before considering coverage complete
Dig into complex or unfamiliar domains to understand expected behavior, clarify ambiguity, and ensure significant call cases are covered
