About this role

Company Description

Are you ready to lead the future of AI-powered quality engineering? We are looking for a Principal AI-Augmented Test Automation Engineer to co-own and scale our AI-native E2E test automation offering together with the Practice Lead.

This is not a traditional automation role focused only on implementation. You will shape the engagement model, establish scalable testing processes, define AI-driven quality engineering principles, and evolve a reusable Playwright + TypeScript framework used across multiple client environments.

You will work directly with senior stakeholders, helping organizations adopt AI-augmented testing practices while ensuring technical quality, operational efficiency, and sustainable delivery models. 

Job Description

1. Process & Solution Establishment

  • Define and evolve the engagement model for AI-native test automation initiatives
  • Adapt and extend the universal rule and skill system for different client environments
  • Advise senior stakeholders on quality strategy, SDLC improvements, automation maturity, and AI adoption
  • Drive framework standardization while balancing project-specific requirements

2. Analytical Review & AI Output Validation

  • Review AI-generated outputs, including code, architecture decisions, reports, rules, and testing artifacts
  • Quickly identify systemic issues, false positives, broken contracts, redundant logic, or inefficient implementations
  • Trace issues to their root causes and define corrective actions at the right system layer
  • Improve the reliability and quality of AI-assisted engineering workflows

3. AI-Augmented Testing Operations

  • Define principles and guardrails for effective AI usage in test automation
  • Work with AI coding agents and structured prompting approaches to optimize engineering workflows
  • Continuously improve prompts, skills, layered rules, and framework integrations
  • Optimize token usage and cost efficiency while maintaining delivery quality

4. Test Automation Architecture

  • Own and evolve a scalable Playwright + TypeScript automation framework
  • Design and maintain page objects, reusable page-element components, fixtures, selectors, reporting, and test data management
  • Establish and enforce strong test-design standards and architectural consistency
  • Support portability and scalability of the framework across multiple engagements

Qualifications

  • Strong hands-on experience with Playwright and TypeScript test automation architecture
  • Proven experience building and evolving automation frameworks from scratch
  • Deep understanding of scalable E2E testing design patterns and framework organization
  • Experience working with AI coding agents such as Cursor, Claude Code, or similar tools
  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to validate and challenge AI-generated outputs
  • Experience defining methodologies, playbooks, standards, or reusable engineering practices
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Ability to work in customer-facing advisory and consulting environments
  • Upper-Intermediate level of English 

WILL BE A PLUS:

  • Experience building AI-native QA or engineering workflows
  • Knowledge of token optimization and AI operational economics
  • Experience leading or scaling QA/automation practices
  • Understanding of SDLC transformation and quality engineering strategy
  • Experience working in consulting or multi-client delivery environments
