Set goals for the team and grow the team structure toward them
Mentor team members toward becoming automation engineers
Collaborate with other teams on company-wide AI transformation initiatives

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
3+ years of hands-on programming in any modern language (TypeScript / JavaScript, Kotlin, Python) — we care about engineering depth, not a specific stack
Solid grasp of a static type system and how to use it for robust, self-documenting code
Confident with asynchronous programming (async/await, promises/futures, concurrency) as it applies to tests
Willing and able to work in a TypeScript / Node.js codebase
2+ years of experience writing stable E2E and integration tests (Playwright, or a comparable modern E2E tool with readiness to switch)
Experience with parallel test execution, configuring environments, and using fixtures
Skilled in debugging tests using Playwright tools (e.g. trace viewer, debug mode)
3+ years of experience, including building test frameworks from scratch or major refactoring and architectural improvements
Deep knowledge and practical application of design patterns in automation, especially Page Object Model (POM), Fixture, Lazy Initialization, and Steps
Practical experience using coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot or similar) as part of the daily engineering loop, not as a demo
Ability to design agentic workflows: decompose a task for an agent, supply the right context, set guardrails, and verify the output
Context engineering for a codebase — project rules/instructions files, skills, reusable prompts, MCP or tool integrations
Sober judgement on where AI helps and where it does not: review of generated tests, flakiness and hallucination control, cost/benefit of automation
Experience working with React codebase to add or consult on adding stable test attributes (e.g. data-testid)
Ability to read and understand Node.js code to write accurate API tests and analyze backend logic
