Experience & Skills Required
Candidates should have solid, hands-on experience writing Python code, including developing automation frameworks, extending proof-of-concept (POC) code into production-ready services, and maintaining code quality.
Beyond scripting, the candidate should understand software development best practices such as version control, code modularity, debugging, and possibly test-driven development (TDD).
Experience with automation tools like Selenium or Playwright is essential, along with the ability to integrate these tools into continuous deployment pipelines.
Familiarity with deploying and maintaining services in cloud environments is required, which often involves understanding infrastructure as code, containerization, or cloud service management.
Responsibilities
- Service Maintenance and Deployment: Manage and deploy services efficiently, ensuring smooth operation and quick resolution of any failures.
- POC Code Enhancement and Testing: Extend proof-of-concept (POC) code into fully functional services and maintain continuous sanity testing after every deployment or change across automation tools.
- User Issue Management: Collaborate with users to identify, document, and investigate reported issues effectively.
- Knowledge Base Development: Create and maintain a comprehensive FAQ documenting common issues and their resolutions.
- Performance Monitoring: Track and analyse the performance of tool releases to ensure no degradation occurs post-deployment.
