Role Overview We are looking for a versatile and security-conscious Full-Stack QA Automation Engineer to lead our end-to-end testing strategy. You will be responsible for ensuring the quality of both frontend and backend systems, utilizing a hybrid approach of Selenium/ Playwright for custom-coded frameworks and Low-Code/No-Code tools for rapid test expansion. Beyond functional correctness, you will integrate security parameters into the testing lifecycle to identify vulnerabilities before they reach production. Key Responsibilities 1. End-to-End Automation & Framework Development Selenium/ Playwright Mastery: Design, develop, and maintain robust, scalable automated test suites using Selenium WebDriver (Java/Python/C#). Hybrid Strategy: Implement and manage Low-Code/No-Code (LCNC) automation tools (e.G., Katalon, Testim, mabl, or ACCELQ) to accelerate test coverage for stable UI components and business workflows. Full-Stack Testing: Perform comprehensive testing across the stack, including UI validation, API/Microservices testing, and database integrity checks. 2. Security & Compliance Integration Vulnerability Scanning: Integrate automated security testing tools (DAST/SAST) into the CI/CD pipeline. Parameter Testing: Validate the application against the OWASP Top 10 (SQL Injection, XSS, CSRF, etc.)
and ensure proper handling of authentication and authorization protocols. Data Protection: Verify encryption standards and data privacy compliance across all product layers. 3. CI/CD & DevSecOps Incorporate automated tests into Jenkins, GitLab CI, or GitHub Actions to enable "Shift-Left" testing. Collaborate with DevOps to ensure environment stability and automated reporting of quality/security gates. 4. Strategy & Collaboration Analyze complex business requirements to create end-to-end test plans. Mentor junior QA members on best practices for both scripted and scriptless automation. Partner with developers to perform root-cause analysis of defects and security flaws. Required Skills & Qualifications Experience: 3+ years in Software Quality Assurance with at least 3 years focused on automation. Automation Tools: Expert proficiency in Selenium/ Playwright. Programming: Robust coding skills in Java, Typescript or JavaScript. Backend Skills: Proficiency in API Testing (Postman, REST Assured) and SQL for database validation. Security Mindset: Practical knowledge of security testing principles and tools (e.G., OWASP ZAP, Burp Suite, or Snyk). Environment: Experience working in an Agile/Scrum environment with Jira and Git. We are looking for candidates with hands-on experience in automation testing, particularly using Playwright.
