Role Description Amtech is seeking a QA Engineer III to own end-to-end quality for an assigned product module, component, service, or feature area. This role requires an experienced Quality Engineer who can independently define a risk-based testing approach, determine the appropriate balance between manual and automated testing, strengthen Playwright automation coverage, and resolve non-routine quality challenges. The QA Engineer III will contribute to requirement reviews, automation code reviews, defect prevention, root-cause analysis, and continuous improvement of engineering quality practices. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES Own end-to-end quality for an assigned module, component, service, or feature area. Develop a risk-based quality plan covering functional, exploratory, API, database, integration, automation, compatibility, and end-to-end testing. Assess product and technical risks and independently determine appropriate test depth and coverage. Decide which scenarios should be automated and which are better validated through manual or exploratory testing. Design and enhance Playwright automation using reusable fixtures, page or component objects, data-driven techniques, tagging, parallel execution, and reliable reporting. Review automation pull requests and provide feedback on maintainability, reliability, test isolation, code quality, and coverage effectiveness. Lead requirement reviews for owned areas and identify ambiguity, missing acceptance criteria, dependencies, edge cases, and testability concerns.

Plan and execute testing across user interfaces, APIs, services, integrations, databases, configurations, and environments. Improve regression effectiveness by removing redundant, unstable, or low-value tests. Diagnose complex failures across applications, automation, environments, data, and dependent services. Conduct root-cause analysis for recurring defects, escaped defects, and automation instability. Recommend preventive and corrective actions based on defect and test-result trends. Track and communicate quality indicators such as defect leakage, regression effectiveness, automation coverage, test stability, and release risk. Evalua…
