We’re determined to make a difference and are proud to be an insurance company that goes well beyond coverages and policies. Working here means having every opportunity to achieve your goals – and to help others accomplish theirs, too. Join our team as we help shape the future.

Position Overview

We are seeking a skilled QA Automation Engineer to join our Enterprise Digital Solutions team in** Hyderabad, India**. In this role, you will design, build, and maintain reliable automated tests across UI and API layers, embed quality checks into CI/CD, and partner with Engineering and Product to prevent defects early. You’ll contribute to scalable test architecture using Playwright with TypeScript/JavaScript and help improve test stability, coverage, and release confidence.

Key Responsibilities Test Automation Development

• Develop and maintain automated test suites for critical user journeys (smoke, regression, end-to-end).

• Create maintainable UI automation using Playwright and** TypeScript/JavaScript** (reusable fixtures, selectors, and page abstractions).

• Build and enhance API automation (request validation, data setup/teardown, and basic contract checks where applicable).

• Analyze failures, triage defects, and collaborate with engineers to identify root causes and prevent regressions.

Framework & CI/CD Integration

• Contribute to and continuously improve the Playwright automation framework (structure, utilities, reporting, and test patterns).

• Implement scalable execution capabilities such as parallelization, environment orchestration, and reliable test data management.

• Integrate automation into CI/CD pipelines (PR validation and nightly runs), with clear reporting and quality gates to support fast, reliable releases.

• Leverage AI/LLM tooling (where approved) to accelerate test case authoring, refactoring, and failure triage (log/trace summarization).

• Follow responsible AI and data-handling guidelines; collaborate with Security/Platform teams to ensure compliant use of AI-enabled testing.

• Contribute ideas and small proofs-of-concept to improve test intelligence (failure clustering, flaky detection), as needed.

Collaboration

• Partner with engineers, product owners, and DevOps to clarify acceptance criteria and ensure testability of requirements.

• Participate in code reviews for automation and share best practices for stable, maintainable tests.

• Promote shift-left quality by adding automation early in the lifecycle and providing fast feedback to the team.

Quality Engineering & Governance

• Define automation scope for critical business journeys and ensure coverage for new/changed features.

• Track and report quality metrics (pass rate, stability/flakiness, defect leakage) and propose improvements.

• Communicate test status, risks, and release readiness to stakeholders with clear, actionable information.

Required Skills & Experience

• 5-7 years of hands-on experience in test automation for web (and/or mobile) applications, including designing and maintaining automation frameworks.

• Strong proficiency in TypeScript/JavaScript.

• Expertise in architecting and scaling cross-platform test execution using Browser Stack SDK/Automate in CI/CD environments

• Deep experience integrating automation into CI/CD pipelines.

• Practical experience using or operationalizing AI/LLM-based testing tools.

• Familiarity with agent-based testing concepts and orchestration patterns (e.g., MCP or similar) is a plus.

• Ability to influence quality outcomes through strong collaboration, clear communication, and pragmatic decision-making.

• Experience making architecture-level automation decisions in complex environments.

• Strong system-thinking mindset with the ability to balance speed, quality, and risk.

• Strong background in Agile, DevOps, and continuous testing practices.

• Experience supporting cloud-native, microservices, and API-driven systems.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in enterprise-scale or regulated environments.

• Exposure to CIAM, security testing, or identity-centric platforms.

• Prior experience driving quality transformation or modernization initiatives.

• Familiarity with observability, analytics, and test intelligence platforms.
