- Hands-on experience applying Generative and/or Agentic AI to quality engineering (e.g., AI-assisted test generation, self-healing, or MCP-based tooling) in a real project, with the ability to describe outcomes and lessons learned.
- Experience leading or mentoring automation teams and acting as a technical authority on framework decisions.
- Automation Strategy, Architecture &
- Governance Define test automation strategy, scope, automation candidates, best practices and test pyramid adoption. Conduct automation feasibility, tool evaluation, ROI assessment and business case creation. Establish framework standards, coding guidelines, review practices and reusable components. Lead migration from legacy tools (Selenium,



Cypress, commercial tools) to Playwright. Define and monitor quality KPIs and gates including coverage, stability, execution time and defect leakage. Manage framework lifecycle, dependency management, Playwright upgrades and maintainability. 2.

Test Automation Framework

Design &
- Implementation Design and implement Playwright automation frameworks using BDD with Gherkin (playwright-bdd/Cucumber).

Utilize

Playwright fixtures for page objects, shared state management and reusable test setup. Configure playwright.config for environments, projects, cross-browser execution, parallelization, worker processes, sharding, and headless/headed modes. Enable selective execution using tags, grep filters and suite/project configurations. Implement resilient locators, web-first assertions and stable automation practices. Develop data-driven tests using Scenario Outlines, Examples tables and DataTables.

Automate

Web UI, APIs using Playwright Request Context, and mobile-browser scenarios through device emulation. Implement screenshots, video recording, tracing, structured logging, custom reporting and visual regression testing. Design test data management, workplace strategies, authentication handling (SSO/MFA,



storage state) and secure secret management.
- Generative &
- Agentic AI in Quality Engineering Integrate Playwright AI capabilities such as planner, generator and healer for accelerated test creation from requirements and user stories. Configure and leverage Playwright MCP Server and related MCP tools for AI-assisted exploration, authoring and maintenance. Drive measurable ROI through AI-led quality engineering initiatives and automation acceleration. 4.

Toolchain

Integration &
- Test Observability -Integrate Playwright with Jira, Xray, Zephyr and other ALM/Test Management tools. Build CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, GitLab CI or equivalent platforms, supporting Docker execution, parallel runs, sharding and quality gates. Integrate observability and reporting tools such as ReportPort 5. Non-Functional Test Automation -Implement accessibility testing using axe-core (@axe-core/playwright).
- Experience with test observability and dashboards (ReportPortal, Allure) and quality-gate design.
- Docker and Kubernetes for scalable, containerized test execution; cloud CI infrastructure (Azure, AWS or GCP).
- Experience with API, performance and contract-testing tools (e.g., Specmatic) alongside Playwright.
- Accessibility (WCAG) and application-security (OWASP) testing knowledge.
- Familiarity with LLM evaluation and guardrails, and with securing AI tooling used in delivery pipelines.
- Industry-recognized certifications on Cloud, Generative and Agentic AI Location _All Locations
