Additional Responsibilities:

• Assist in the continuous improvement of the automation framework to ensure minimal maintenance of scripts due to source code changes, addition or removal of data elements, or changes in applications or systems. The framework should be able to service multiple applications of varying platform types.

• Create and update documentation and diagrams describing how the framework processes scripts and objects. Documentation should also detail the framework objects, functions, dependencies, and limitations.
