WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Serve as the dedicated QA Automation Engineer for an assigned ART(s) within Workplace Solutions, partnering directly with BAs and engineers across multiple teams.
• Assess the automation readiness of each team within your ART and help prioritize which applications and workflows to automate first.
• Help teams set up and organize their QA tooling (test-case management folder structure, test repositories, test management processes).
• Work side by side with BAs and engineers to write, review, and improve automation scripts - teaching best practices and upskilling team members as you go.
• Assist teams in developing test plans and test scenarios, with a focus on identifying which workflows are worth automating and which are not.
• Provide hands-on automation scripting support using tools including Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, and/or Postman.
  Integrate automation suites into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or similar) to support reliable, repeatable execution.
  Review test scripts developed by team members and provide constructive feedback to improve quality and maintainability.
  Support upskilling of BAs and engineers on testing fundamentals, automation tools, and best practices - including recommending and facilitating relevant training resources.

• We're especially interested in specific examples of how you've helped a team build a testing capability that outlasted your direct involvement.
