Role Overview

We’re looking for an experienced Automation Engineer to join our QA team and play a central role in building and maintaining our test automation system using Playwright. In this position, you will be responsible not only for writing automation code but also for contributing to test planning, version validation, and feature testing — both manual and automated — with the clear mission to drive full automation across our QA lifecycle.

This is a hands-on role where you’ll shape our testing infrastructure and help ensure high product quality at scale. You’ll collaborate closely with other QA engineers, developers, and product managers, working on real-world systems that involve computer vision, real-time edge processing, and user-facing web interfaces

Responsabilities:

Be a core member of the QA team, owning automation development and helping define test strategies.

Design and maintain Playwright-based automation frameworks in Python.

Write robust, scalable automated test suites for new and existing features.

Collaborate with QA teammates and developers to create and execute comprehensive test plans for versions, features, and regression.

Contribute to manual testing for new features and edge cases — with the goal of automating them efficiently.

Ensure automation runs as part of CI/CD pipelines with clear reporting and failure analysis.

Continuously improve test coverage, reliability, and visibility of results.

Promote best practices in automation architecture, code quality, and QA collaboration.

Requirements:

• 5+ years of experience in automation engineering, with a background in manual QA or test planning.
• Strong hands-on knowledge of Python.
• Practical experience with Playwright
• Deep understanding of QA methodologies, and release cycles.
• Ability to write structured test plans and convert them into automated scenarios.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills in English.
