Test Lead - API Automation

Design and maintain end-to-end UI test frameworks using Playwright with JavaScript/TypeScript. • Build and validate RESTful API test suites using Cucumber JS, HTTP requests, and tools like Postman or SoapUI. • Replicate UI flows on the REST layer using a Python-based framework to validate backend functionality. • Actively use GitHub Copilot and Devin to generate, optimize, and review automation scripts — accelerating coverage and reducing manual effort. • Author and maintain Devin Playbooks tailored specifically for Test Automation Developers and QE Engineers — covering script generation, framework scaffolding, test data setup, and common automation patterns. • Optimize and validate Devin-generated output — reviewing AI-produced scripts for correctness, maintainability, and alignment with team standards before integration. • Integrate and execute regression suites via Selenium Grid and Jenkins CI/CD pipelines. • Contribute to backlog grooming, sprint planning, and test strategy aligned with acceptance criteria. • Track defects, collaborate closely with developers on fixes, and drive quality throughout the SDLC. • Mentor junior automation engineers on both traditional and AI-augmented QE workflows.
