About the Role
Hi, I'm Priyanka Mondal, QA Discipline Lead at Hawk-Eye Innovations.
I'm looking for a Full Stack SDET (Software Development Engineer in Test) to join our QA team within the Video & Graphics Value

delivery platforms. Working with developers, product teams, and fellow QA engineers, you'll play an important role in improving
reliability, scalability, and confidence in our software.
We're looking for strong experience in Python and JavaScript/TypeScript, alongside UI automation, API testing, CI/CD pipelines,
and AWS. Experience with Playwright is preferred, although experience with other modern automation frameworks is also welcome.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
DESIGN AND DEVELOP AUTOMATION FRAMEWORKS
Build scalable, maintainable automation frameworks across frontend, backend, desktop, API, and data-driven systems.
Establish testing patterns and best practices that support long-term maintainability.
