• Define coding standards, perform code reviews, and onboard team members to the automation framework

CI/CD & Pipeline Integration

• Configure and maintain GitHub Actions workflows for automated test execution — integrate with CI pipelines for reporting, failure screenshots, and alerting
• Set up Git-event-driven test triggers and post structured test result summaries to collaboration channels
• Work with shell scripting and Docker basics to support pipeline reliability and scalability

AI Agent Development & Integration

• Contribute to AI-native test automation pipelines leveraging LLM APIs (Claude API / OpenAI) — including intelligent test selection, auto test generation via Playwright Codegen, and automated defect reporting
• Build or support autonomous agent workflows with multi-step reasoning, tool use, and integration with external APIs (GitHub, Jira, REST APIs)
• Develop and refine prompt engineering strategies to build reliable, deterministic agent behavior
• Deploy and monitor AI agents via FastAPI or serverless functions; handle edge cases and output validation

Quality & Reporting

• Perform functional, regression, smoke, and end-to-end test coverage for web platforms
• Manage test data setup and teardown; generate Allure reports and share structured summaries with stakeholders
• Analyze test failures, identify root causes, and drive continuous improvement of test coverage and quality processes

Automation & Testing

• Strong proficiency in Playwright (TypeScript / Python / JavaScript) for web UI automation
• Solid understanding of Page Object Model (POM) and scalable framework design principles — must have designed frameworks, not just written scripts
• Familiarity with BDD frameworks such as Cucumber
• Experience with test runners: pytest or Playwright Test Runner
• Hands-on experience with Selenium WebDriver is a plus

Languages & Tools

• Proficient in TypeScript and/or Python; familiarity with JavaScript is a plus

AI & LLM Exposure

• Working knowledge of LLM APIs (Claude API / OpenAI) for building AI-powered automation or agent workflows
• Hands-on experience with prompt engineering for reliable, structured agent outputs
• Exposure to MCP (Model Context Protocol) or agent skill-based design patterns
• Familiarity with FastAPI for deploying lightweight agent services

Soft Skills

• Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills — must be able to diagnose failures live
• Ability to independently own modules and drive projects with minimal supervision
• Good communication skills; ability to write structured summaries and documentation for both technical and non-technical stakeholders
