• Test Planning:
  Designing comprehensive test strategies for complex features, ensuring full coverage across unit, integration, system, and regression testing.
• Automation Framework Development:
  Designing and maintaining robust automation frameworks from scratch, selecting the right tools (e.g., Playwright, FlaUI, Protractor, Rest Assured, Selenium, Playwright etc) that align with the company's tech stack.
• CI/CD Integration:
  Working on the Dev Ops tasks to integrate automated testing into the Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment pipelines to ensure "quality at speed."
• Test lab management:
  Upkeep of all the test environments (on premise and cloud). Managing the security patching on the test deployments.

• Risk Analysis:
  Performing deep-dive risk assessments to identify which parts of the application are most prone to failure and prioritizing testing efforts accordingly.
• Performance and Security Testing:
  Moving beyond functional testing to oversee or perform non-functional testing, including load testing, stress testing, and basic security vulnerability assessment.
• Root Cause Analysis:
  Investigating complex production issues to understand why bugs escaped the testing cycle and implementing safeguards to prevent recurrence.

• Mentoring:
  Coaching junior engineers on best practices, code quality, and testing methodologies.
• Process Improvement:
  Identifying bottlenecks in the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and proposing process improvements (such as shifting left - testing earlier in the development cycle).

  Acting as a "Quality Champion" within the organization, promoting a culture where quality is a shared responsibility among developers, product managers, and designers.

• Requirement Analysis:
  Participating in design and architecture meetings early in the process to identify logical flaws or edge cases before code is even written.
• Stakeholder Reporting:
  Translating technical quality metrics (e.g., defect density, test coverage, pass/fail rates) into actionable insights for product managers and stakeholders.

• Automation Frameworks:
  Expertise in industry-standard tools. Experience developing automated tests for Windows based applications is highly preferred.
• Web:
  Selenium, Playwright, or FlaUI.
• API:
  Postman, REST Assured, or PyTest.
• CI/CD Knowledge:
  Practical experience with pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, Git Hub Actions, Git Lab CI).
• Infrastructure & Cloud:
  Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) to simulate production-like testing environments.
• Metrics-Driven Mindset:
  Experience defining and tracking KPIs such as Mean Time to Detect (MTTD), Mean Time to Resolve (MTTR), and defect leakage rates to demonstrate the ROI of the QA team.
• Agile/Scrum
  
  Experience:
  
  Strong background working in iterative environments, including participation in sprint planning, grooming, and retrospectives.
• Industrial Automation Domain:
  Experience with SCADA…
