Planit – An NRI Company 

Where Quality Is Seen, Not Heard 

At Planit, quality isn’t a checkbox - it’s a craft. As part of NRI, we combine global scale with deep local expertise to deliver quality engineering and testing services you can see, trust, and measure. Our mission is simple: make every system perform flawlessly and every digital experience inspire confidence. 

With 1,500+ Quality Engineering specialists and delivery models that adapt to every client’s needs, Planit offers the perfect blend of reach, reliability, and innovation.

 About the Role

This is a great opportunity to work with a leading QA consultancy, partnering with enterprise clients to modernise testing practices, implement scalable automation frameworks, and embed DevOps-driven delivery.

You’ll play a key role in shaping how automation is designed, standardised, and integrated across multiple teams.

What You’ll Do

• Design and build scalable, modular automation frameworks (Selenium, Playwright, Cypress)
• Integrate automation into CI/CD pipelines and release cycles
• Drive standardisation of automation practices across teams and environments
• Contribute to pipeline design and automation strategy
• Manage test environments and data across distributed systems
• Support uplift of QA maturity and best practices across the engagement

What We’re Looking For

• Strong hands-on experience with Selenium, Playwright, Cypress + DevOps environments
• Experience designing and integrating automation within CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Octopus, etc.)
• Solid experience building automation frameworks (not just using existing tools)
• Experience working across enterprise SaaS / web-based platforms
• Exposure to cloud environments (AWS, Azure or GCP)
• Strong stakeholder engagement skills across technical and non-technical audiences
• Experience managing test environments and complex data setups

Why Join NRI Planit? 

You’ll work with cutting-edge tools, industry-leading experts, and clients who rely on us to deliver excellence at scale. Here, you’re part of a company where quality isn’t just delivered—it’s engineered, evolved, and amplified. 

 Your skills. Our impact. Together unstoppable. 

At NRI Planit, you’ll push the boundaries of quality engineering, work with brilliant minds, and see the difference your expertise makes across NZ's top systems - fast, reliable, and intelligent. Don’t worry if you don’t meet every requirement listed - we value attitude, experience and a can-do attitude above all else, and you may just be the perfect fit for this role or another within NRI Planit.
