Title Automation Architect Job Type Contract Contract Length 2+ months Target Start Date ASAP Work Location/Structure Remote About the Opportunity Our client, a leader in Educational Technology and Publishing, is looking for a skilled Automation Architect to join their team for a 2+ months engagement. This project involves designing, building, and scaling modern, intelligent end-to-end automation frameworks that ensure high release confidence across all product lines, with a strong focus on Angular-based web applications. This is a high-impact role that requires a self‑motivated professional who can hit the ground running and deliver results quickly. Key Responsibilities & Deliverables Design, implement, and maintain a Playwright (TypeScript) automation framework focused on scalability, maintainability, and reliability for Angular application. Build reusable utilities, fixtures, and test patterns aligned with Angular architecture, including component‑based UIs, routing, and asynchronous rendering. Address Angular‑specific automation challenges such as change detection, dynamic DOM updates, async operations, and test synchronization. Use AI to create automated tests, accelerating UI, API, and end‑to‑end test development for Angular workflows. Apply AI‑based self‑healing mechanisms to automatically adapt to frequent Angular UI, DOM, and locator changes. Identify, analyze, and fix flaky tests using AI, including issues related to timing, synchronization, change detection, and environment instability. Leverage AI‑assisted failure analysis to cluster failures and highlight root causes. Implement intelligent test selection and prioritization to reduce unnecessary CI/CD execution. Continuously improve test stability, accuracy, and execution performance using AI‑driven insights. Build, configure, and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions for automated test execution. Enable parallel execution and test sharding to improve feedback cycles. Integrate and manage BrowserStack or similar cloud testing platforms for scalable, distributed execution across browsers and devices. Expand and maintain automation coverage across Angular UI, REST APIs, and accessibility (WCAG/A11Y). Collaborate with engineering and QA teams to align automation with Angular product workflows and risk areas. Perform exploratory or manual testing when needed to better understand complex Angular user flows and edge cases. Generate and analyze automation test reports to identify failures, flakiness, and trends. Integrate test results with observability and monitoring tools to correlate failures with system health. Use data and insights to continuously improve automation reliability and effectiveness. Required Skills & Experience Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or8+ years of equivalent experience in test automation and framework design. Strong hands‑on experience with Playwright (TypeScript). Strong experience testing Angular applications,including understanding of component lifecycles, routing, and async behavior. Mandatory hands‑on experience using AI in automation testing,specifically for: test creation and maintenance, self‑healing automation, flaky test detection and automated stabilization, and AI‑assisted failure analysis. Strong understanding of HTML5, CSS3, modern JavaScript/TypeScript, and browser behavior. Proven experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, especially with GitHub Actions. Hands‑on experience with BrowserStack or similar cloud device farms. Solid understanding of RESTful APIs, async programming, and microservices‑based systems. Experience with test management tools (e.g., Tricentis, TestRail, Xray). Working knowledge of observability tools (e.g., Datadog, New Relic). Experience withaccessibility testingusing tools such as Axe or Evinced(WCAG knowledge). Nice to Have Experience with Angular Material, NgRx, or other Angular ecosystem libraries. Exposure to AWS or other cloud platforms. Familiarity with performance or security testing. Experience integrating or evaluating commercial or open‑source AI testing tools. #J-18808-Ljbffr
