• Collaborate effectively with product managers and developers to thoroughly understand features and identify quality risks early in the process.

• Design, develop, and uphold clean, dependable, and scalable automated tests for our web applications utilizing WebdriverIO and TypeScript/JavaScript.

• Employ the Page Object Model (POM) and create reusable components and utilities to maintain a DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself) automation codebase.

• Manage intricate automation scenarios that involve iFrames, multiple windows, and asynchronous operations; implement effective waiting strategies to minimize flakiness.

• Create and integrate API tests (using tools such as Axios/node-fetch or Postman) within the WebdriverIO framework to ensure thorough end-to-end coverage.
