Playwright & TypeScript Mentorship/ Help

I’m looking for a senior-level SDET who has designed and maintained production-grade test frameworks with Playwright and TypeScript. My goal is to become fully capable of solving engineering problems on my own, so each session should push me toward independent thinking rather than spoon-feeding code.

Where we’ll start
The first area I want to master is Playwright + TypeScript: structuring tests, extending fixtures, building custom reporters, and taming flaky runs. From there we can move into API, integration and E2E strategy, CI/CD pipelines (CircleCI, Buildkite, GitHub Actions), and any tips you have for debugging at scale. Real-world industry scenarios are the preferred playground—sample repos, side projects, or anonymised slices of production code are all fair game.

How we’ll work
• Regular 1-on-1 video calls with shared screen for pair programming
• Async code reviews between sessions, focusing on architecture and reliability techniques
• Occasional deep dives into CI logs, coverage reports, and flaky-test triage
If you have experience testing AI/ML, LLM or data platforms, I’d love to weave that in as a stretch topic.

When you reply, please include:
– Your current or most recent role and company type (startup, enterprise, consultancy, etc.)
– Total years in test automation and specifically with Playwright + TypeScript
– Any hands-on AI/ML testing you’ve done
– Your hourly or session-based rate

This is an ongoing engagement, so I value clear communication, reliability, and a coaching mindset. Let’s build some solid, production-ready tests together.
