  • Analyse test execution results and defects across the ServiceNow stack, ensuring robust regression coverage is in place

  • Collaborate with manual testers, engineers, and project teams to align on engineering and QA standards

  • Review QA automation code and contribute to shared repositories, ensuring maintainable and scalable test solutions

  • Maintain up-to-date QA documentation to support service support, onboarding, and ongoing platform maintenance

  • Share ideas and insights on modern QA and automation practices, with opportunities to influence and evolve the QA toolset

  • Participate in hack days and innovation initiatives, exploring cutting-edge testing approaches for ServiceNow and beyond

  • Proven experience designing and implementing automation strategies specifically for ServiceNow

  • Hands-on experience with Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium-based frameworks, building structured and maintainable automated test suites

  • Solid experience writing TypeScript or JavaScript, with a good understanding of object-oriented programming principles

  • Strong understanding of API integration testing, functional end-to-end testing, accessibility, and cross-browser testing

  • Experience testing ServiceNow integrations and APIs, using tools such as Postman, JMeter, or similar

  • Practical knowledge of BDD practices and how they apply within enterprise platforms like ServiceNow

  • Experience using cross-browser testing tools such as BrowserStack Automate or Sauce Labs

  • Strong understanding of testing models such as the Testing Pyramid, and applying them effectively within ServiceNow environments

  • Experience working within CI/CD pipelines, understanding how QA automation supports continuous delivery and deployment
