      Design and maintain automation frameworks using Selenium, Cucumber BDD, and JUnit or TestNG

      Leverage data to drive quality
      Implement observability and build dashboards to track key quality indicators
      Collaborate with engineering and product to co-own and act on quality metrics
      Continuously improve test coverage and reduce escape rates through data-backed insights

      Integrate with CI/CD workflows

      Work closely with developers, infrastructure engineers, and data teams
      Coach junior engineers and help foster a culture of engineering excellence

      What We're Looking For
