D365 CRM QA Automation Specialist

Fixed Term Contract until 30 June 2027| Hybrid Sydney CBD | Dynamics 365 | Power Platform | Playwright | Azure DevOps
Are you passionate about quality engineering and test automation? Want the opportunity to build a Dynamics 365 automation capability from the ground up rather than inherit someone else's framework?
We are seeking a D365 CRM Test Automation Specialist to establish and lead automated testing for a critical Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM platform. This is a unique opportunity to define the strategy, build the framework, and leave behind a sustainable capability that will continue to deliver value long after the contract concludes.
Working closely with a CRM Developer, Test Analyst and key business stakeholders, you'll introduce automated regression and end-to-end testing across the platform using Playwright, Power Platform Playwright samples, Azure DevOps and .NET. You'll help the team improve release confidence, reduce regression risk and embed quality engineering into the delivery lifecycle.
Key activities:

Define and implement the initial test automation strategy for a Dynamics 365 CRM environment
Establish and extend the Power Platform Playwright samples as the foundation of the automation framework
Build automated regression coverage for critical CRM business processes
Develop reliable end-to-end, API and integration tests across the Dynamics 365 ecosystem
Introduce unit testing for plugins, custom APIs and custom components alongside the CRM Developer
Integrate automated testing into Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines and release processes
Improve quality visibility through meaningful reporting, coverage analysis and release-readiness metrics
Reduce manual effort and strengthen confidence in platform changes
Document frameworks, standards and operating procedures and provide knowledge transfer to the broader team
Support manual testing activities when required to help meet delivery deadlines

Skills and experience required:

Strong experience implementing test automation for Dynamics 365, Power Platform or other enterprise applications
Hands-on expertise with Playwright and modern automation frameworks
Experience establishing automation capabilities from scratch rather than maintaining existing suites
Strong understanding of Dynamics 365 CRM, Dataverse and Model-Driven Apps
Experience with API, integration and regression testing approaches
Proven experience integrating automated testing into Azure DevOps pipelines
Strong JavaScript, TypeScript and/or C# skills
Experience diagnosing application, environment, data and automation failures
Excellent stakeholder engagement, problem-solving and communication skills

Highly Regarded

Experience with Power Platform Playwright Samples
Microsoft Power Platform, Dynamics 365 or Azure certifications
Experience in financial services, healthcare, insurance or other regulated environments
Experience building sustainable automation frameworks and quality engineering practices in Agile delivery teams
