We are looking for a Quality Engineer Tech Lead to serve as the technical anchor for our client's organization. In this role, you will combine deep hands-on expertise in test automation and quality practices with the leadership skills to elevate the engineers around you. You will own critical testing infrastructure, drive technical decisions, and set the standard for engineering excellence across the team.
This is not a people management role—it’s a technical leadership position for someone who wants to stay close to the code while making a significant impact on how we build and deliver high-quality software. You will partner closely with development teams, mentor quality engineers, and act as the go-to expert for solving complex testing challenges.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain scalable test automation frameworks across web, API, and mobile platforms.
- Serve as the technical leader for a team of 4–8 quality engineers, guiding architecture, code quality, and best practices.
- Own end-to-end test strategy, including planning, coverage analysis, and risk assessment.
- Write maintainable test code, conduct code reviews, and establish QE coding standards.
- Improve CI/CD pipelines to optimize test execution, reliability, and feedback loops.
- Partner with developers to implement shift-left testing practices and improve testability.
- Lead technical investigations for complex defects and production incidents, driving root-cause resolution.
- Evaluate and introduce testing tools, frameworks, and methodologies to enhance efficiency and coverage.
- Develop performance testing suites and collaborate with engineering to resolve bottlenecks.
- Create documentation, runbooks, and training materials to scale knowledge across the team.
- Participate in architecture and design reviews, advocating for quality from the start.
