• Own and evolve our test automation platform: Take responsibility for the existing automation suite, improving reliability, maintainability, and execution speed. • Build high-value automated coverage: Add meaningful test coverage in high-risk and high-impact areas by extending existing flows and creating new ones where needed. • Reduce flakiness and improve signal: Diagnose and fix flaky tests, improve failure visibility, and ensure test results are actionable and trusted. • Strengthen CI/CD quality gates: Enable faster, more reliable automated testing in CI/CD pipelines to shorten feedback loops and improve release confidence. • Influence testing strategy: Help teams choose the right mix of UI, API, integration, and other test types based on product risk and impact. • Support functional testing when needed: Contribute to manual testing, exploratory testing, test case design, and defect reporting to ensure coverage where automation isn’t yet the right tool. • Partner with engineering teams: Work closely with developers and QA to shift quality left and embed testing into the development lifecycle. • Establish scalable best practices: Document testing patterns, standards, and approaches that scale beyond individual contributors.
