• Strong knowledge of test automation tools (WebdriverIO, Cypress, Playwright, Jest/Supertest).
• Hands-on experience integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience in Agile and DevOps environments, with a focus on continuous improvement.
• Knowledge of non-functional testing (Security, Performance, Resilience, Accessibility).
• Experience in Ecommerce (Desirable).
• Certifications in Agile Testing (ISTQB Agile, Rapid Software Testing) (Desirable).
• Cloud experience (AWS, Azure, GCP) (Desirable).
Tech Stack & Tools:
✅ Playwright, Cypress
