QA Automation Engineer to own automated testing across a large regulated UK organisation's platform, building quality in from the start rather than catching problems at the end.
What you'll do: - Build and maintain automated test suites with Playwright and Cypress. - Integrate tests into CI to ensure quality is checked on every change. - Collaborate with engineers to bake testing in from the start, not bolt it on at the end. - Help set the quality bar across the program.
