- Experience with modern software development methodologies (Agile, Scrum, etc.)
- Strong understanding of automated test design patterns and best practices
- Experience using Playwright to create automated test scripts
- Innovative & Curious: You challenge assumptions and ask “Why?” rather than accepting things at face value, pushing for deeper insights and meaningful solutions.

- Customer-Centric: You understand that the best solutions are those that align with and advance customer needs and goals. Quality is fundamental to everything you deliver.
