Description

Our Client, an IT Services and Consultant company, is looking for an Automation Test Engineer (Playwright, Typescript) for their Richmond, VA/ Atlanta, GA/ Hybrid location.
 
Responsibilities:
  • Design, build, and maintain a scalable Playwright automation framework using TypeScript/JavaScript, applying Page Object Model or equivalent design patterns for reusability and maintainability.
  • Develop end-to-end UI automation suites covering critical business workflows, regression scenarios, and smoke tests across Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit.
  • Write resilient locators using Playwright's role-based and test-id strategies, leveraging auto-waiting and web-first assertions to eliminate hard waits and reduce flakiness.
  • Build reusable fixtures, custom commands, and test utilities; manage authentication state via storageState to avoid redundant login flows.
  • Implement API test automation using Playwright's request fixture for service-layer validation and test data setup/teardown.
  • Implement network interception and mocking (page.route) to isolate the UI from unstable downstream dependencies and to test error and edge-case states.
 
Requirements:
  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, or related field.
  • 3–6 years of hands-on test automation experience, including 2+ years with Playwright building and maintaining production automation frameworks.
  • Strong programming proficiency in TypeScript and/or JavaScript (Java Playwright bindings acceptable depending on stack).
  • Demonstrated experience architecting automation frameworks from scratch — not just writing scripts in an existing one.
  • Solid understanding of Playwright core concepts: locators, auto-waiting, fixtures, projects, parallelism, retries, tracing, and configuration.
  • Proficiency with API testing — REST, JSON payloads, status code and schema validation (Playwright request, Postman, or REST Assured).
  • Hands-on CI/CD integration experience with at least one of GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, or GitLab CI.
  • Strong Git skills — branching, pull requests, merge conflict resolution, code review participation.
  • Working SQL knowledge for test data setup and backend validation.
  • Solid grasp of QA fundamentals: test design techniques, boundary and equivalence analysis, risk-based testing, defect lifecycle.
  • Experience working in Agile/Scrum teams with sprint-based delivery.
  • Strong debugging and root cause analysis skills; ability to investigate failures across UI, API, and data layers.
  • Clear written and verbal communication — able to explain quality risk to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Automation testing experience.
  • Playwright automation testing.
  • Typescript, Javascript, xPath, resource locators etc.
