Design, develop and evolve a modular, maintainable automation framework (Page‑Object, Factory, BDD, etc.).
Choose and standardize tooling (Selenium, Java/Python) that fits the application landscape.
Create a test‑data strategy for independent, reliable test runs.
Define repository layout and branching conventions in Git Hub/Bitbucket to enable multi‑team collaboration.
Embed automated suites into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Git Lab CI, Azure Dev Ops) to enforce gated check‑ins.
Architect parallel execution of tests on cloud‑based agents (AWS/Azure/GCP).

Log defects with clear steps, severity and root‑cause analysis; lead triage with developers, product owners and compliance teams.
Use test‑management tools (JIRA/ALM/TFS) for traceability.
Govern automation code quality through rigorous peer‑reviews and coding‑standard enforcement.
Mentor junior QA engineers; run knowledge‑sharing sessions and champion best practices.
Partner with development architects to embed testability (unique test IDs, API hooks).
Deliver regular KPI dashboards (coverage, defect leakage, automation ROI).
Implement AI‑driven self‑healing locators and error‑recovery mechanisms to reduce script breakage.
Evaluate and rollout AI coding assistants (e.g., Git Hub Copilot, Tabnine) to speed script authoring and refactoring.
Explore AI‑generated functional test cases from user stories/JIRA tickets and vice‑versa.
Propose risk‑based testing strategies, coverage road‑maps and lightweight automation (Cypress, Playwright, Postman).
Participate in retrospectives, suggest process improvements and help implement agreed actions.
Collaborate across teams (development, product, risk/compliance) to align testing with business goals.

Practical experience integrating automated suites into Jenkins, Git Lab CI or Azure Dev Ops and using Git/Git Hub/Bitbucket for source control.
Ability to diagnose flaky tests, analyze failures and implement robust fixes.
Experience testing capital‑markets, banking or related financial applications (preferred but not mandatory).
Preferred Education, Skills and Experience
Experience with mobile automation (Appium) and API testing frameworks (REST‑Assured, Postman, Karate).
Familiarity with Playwright , Cypress , or other modern UI testing libraries.
Experience running tests in Docker containers and orchestrating with Kubernetes .
Use of blue‑green deployments, canary releases, or multi‑environment pipelines.
Experience provisioning and scaling test environments on AWS, Azure or GCP .
Deep knowledge of capital‑markets, trading or risk‑management workflows.
