What this job asks for AI summary
This role centers on building and maintaining automated test coverage for Angular web applications and Java-based REST APIs, primarily using Playwright with TypeScript. Day-to-day work spans expanding an existing automation framework, validating data via Oracle SQL, integrating tests through Jenkins, and performing exploratory and manual testing alongside automation. It suits an engineer who can design maintainable test architecture, diagnose failures across multiple layers, and apply AI-assisted tooling critically and responsibly.

“or” means any one of them counts — you don't need all of them.
We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.
Why we read it this way (11)
No location is specified in the posting. FastTek Global is a Michigan-based staffing firm, but the role's work location is not stated — CBSA left blank.
The posting is from a staffing/consulting firm (FastTek Global), which strongly implies a contract engagement; employment type set to Contract accordingly.
No compensation figures are provided.
Oracle is listed as a primary tool in the opening description but the Required Qualifications section says 'preferably with Oracle,' making it a preference rather than a hard gate.
Angular is listed as preferred ('preferably Angular') in the Required Qualifications section, so it is marked as preferred.
Bitbucket appears only in the opening tools list ('primary tools include … Bitbucket'), not in the formal Required Qualifications block, so it is marked as preferred.
GitHub Copilot is mentioned as an expected daily-use tool but appears in the responsibilities/AI section rather than the Required Qualifications block, so it is marked as preferred.
Java is required in the context of testing Java-based REST APIs; the candidate need not develop in Java, but must understand and test Java REST API behavior.
HTTP and JSON are called out explicitly in the Required Qualifications under REST API understanding and are treated as hard gates.
The alt SOC 15-1252 is noted because the role demands automation architecture contributions and writing maintainable TypeScript code, blurring the line between QA engineering and software development — however, the primary framing is quality/testing.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
