๐ข About Deloitte
Deloitte is a global professional-services organization with technology teams that work across software engineering, quality engineering, consulting and technology operations. Deloitte India’s careers portal currently lists multiple SDET, Testing Automation and QA opportunities in Hyderabad, reflecting an active technology and quality-engineering hiring environment.
For this position, the team works across software engineering, QA and operations practices to improve application reliability, release quality and testing capabilities. The role therefore goes beyond writing automation scripts and includes collaboration with Business Analysts, developers and Scrum teams throughout the software development lifecycle.
๐ผ What You’ll Do
๐น Translate user stories and business requirements into test scenarios and detailed test cases
๐น Execute manual functional, UI, regression and production-validation testing
๐น Develop, maintain and debug automated tests using Playwright and Selenium WebDriver
๐น Enhance existing automation frameworks and troubleshoot failed scripts
๐น Execute automation through CI/CD pipelines and document results
๐น Log, track and retest defects through resolution
๐น Communicate test status, quality risks and testing estimates to stakeholders
๐น Work closely with developers, QA analysts and cross-functional Agile teams
๐ Why This Role Is Good for Experienced QA Professionals
This opportunity is useful for QA engineers who want to build a stronger SDET profile by combining manual testing with modern browser automation. The JD specifically brings Playwright and Selenium together, giving candidates an opportunity to demonstrate experience across both established and newer automation approaches.
The role also includes CI/CD execution, framework enhancement and production validation. That combination is valuable for professionals who want their resume to demonstrate quality engineering ownership, rather than only test-case execution. Working with Scrum teams also provides exposure to requirement analysis, estimation, release validation and stakeholder communication.

๐ฐ Salary Range
The job post does not disclose an official compensation range. Current user-submitted Deloitte salary data shows Software Engineer II submissions for 4โ6 years in Hyderabad around โน10โ20 LPA, with several recent entries at โน20 LPA; broader Software Engineer data also shows considerable variation by experience and role.
For this SDET opening, an indicative range of โน10โ20 LPA can therefore be used as a market reference, not as a Deloitte-confirmed package. Actual compensation may vary according to level, relevant automation experience, skills, current CTC and negotiation.

โ๏ธ Explain framework architecture: Be ready to draw your framework and explain Page Object Model, reusable utilities, test-data management, reporting and configuration.
๐ Focus on CI/CD: Prepare how automated tests are triggered in a pipeline, how failures are reported and how teams decide whether a build should proceed.
๐ญ Practice production validation: Prepare a real scenario where you validate a release quickly, identify critical smoke tests and communicate release risks.
๐งช Strengthen TestNG: Revise annotations, groups, priorities, dependencies, parameterization, data providers and parallel execution.
๐ Master requirement-to-test mapping: Practice converting a user story into positive, negative, boundary and regression scenarios.
๐ Troubleshoot automation: Be prepared to diagnose stale elements, timing issues, locator failures, environment problems and test-data issues.
๐ Resume Tips
Make SDET | QA Automation | Playwright | Selenium | TestNG highly visible near the top of your resume. Your summary should clearly communicate your years of experience and the combination of manual and automation testing.
For every major project, demonstrate what you automated and the business impact. Instead of simply writing โworked on Selenium,โ mention the framework, number of automated scenarios, regression coverage, execution improvement or maintenance responsibility where those figures are accurate.
