• Ensure test tools are configured correctly to support accurate execution reporting and the collection of quality metrics for programme and enterprise‑wide dashboards.
• Support and guide software engineers in writing and maintaining automated functional tests through continuous integration, strengthening shared ownership of quality.
• Implement, maintain, and evolve automation frameworks and test harnesses to make end‑to‑end tests scalable, resilient, and maintainable across environments.
• Ensure quality gate requirements are understood, adopted, and consistently met, enabling predictable releases and early defect detection.
• Support the Principal Quality Assurance Engineer in coordinating major delivery initiatives across multiple domains and environments, ensuring no customer or business impact.
• Develop team capability through coaching, knowledge sharing, and structured support to strengthen understanding of testing practices, technologies, and delivery processes.

To be considered for this role, you must meet the below requirements:

• Degree or Honours (12+3 or equivalent) in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related discipline (or relevant professional experience).
• 5+ years of experience in quality engineering roles involving complex, scalable software solutions across digital, data, or enterprise domains.
• Proven experience as a quality engineering lead (or equivalent), supporting multiple products and contributing to end‑to‑end business process scenario mapping.

• Strong experience creating and maintaining scalable test data frameworks to support automation.
• 3+ years of hands‑on automation experience using one or more tools such as Selenium (WebDriver/Grid), Protractor, Jasmine, Cucumber/Gherkin, JUnit, TestNG (or equivalent).
• Proficiency using Git‑based source control and collaboration tools (e.g., GitHub, Bitbucket) and integrating automated tests into CI tools (e.g., Jenkins, Azure DevOps, or equivalent).
• Proficiency in at least two programming languages, preferably Java and JavaScript, with strong coding practices and the ability to define test automation guidelines.
• Strong expertise in exploratory and context‑driven testing approaches, applying practical heuristics to identify defects early and reduce risk.
