About the role

  • Own the QA vision: Collectively define and refine the reliability & QA automation strategy and roadmap with all stakeholders; translate product risks into a prioritized plan with measurable outcomes.
  • Implement the QA solution: work with engineering leadership to select tools, design the test pyramid, and stand-up automation frameworks for orchestration of complex software components, associated datasets, and APIs.
  • Integrate into CI/CD: working with cloud / DevOps staff, implement gated pipelines, test artifact retention, release candidate process / versioning, and release criteria (coverage, pass rate, performance thresholds, process exceptions).
  • Non-functional quality: introduce automated performance / load / fault tolerance, accessibility, visual regression, and security / compliance checks into pipelines.
  • Release safety: Working with the software principals across product development and delivery, implement automation to support enhanced software release and deployment (e.g., feature flags, automated smoke checks, and software version rollback solutions).
  • Metrics & reporting: Work with engineering leadership to define and publish software quality metrics and performance indicators (e.g., DORA)
  • Backlog leadership: maintain a groomed backlog of reliability improvements and automation work; make technical and resource tradeoffs that protect velocity without sacrificing stability.
  • Team enablement: coach “shift-left” practices, create playbooks, host lunch-and-learns, and contribute reference tests/components to shared libraries for software developers to easily reuse.
  • Hands-on delivery: author test and QA specifications, write sample tests/utilities, review PRs, and drive cross-functional execution to demonstrable outcomes.
  • Operational excellence: run post-incident reviews, drive corrective actions into roadmap, and continuously reduce toil with tooling and automation.
  • AI augmentation: evaluate and introduce agentic AI-driven test automation to accelerate test creation, self-healing, failure analysis, and predictive quality insights.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, software engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 7+ years in product / QA automation / reliability roles within commercial industry; at least 3+ years owning automation frameworks end-to-end.
  • Proven hands-on implementation of QA and test automation solutions: candidate should be able to provide relevant before / after metrics.
  • Significant hands-on experience with implementing, configuring, and maintaining modern frontend / UI, backend, and full-stack testing tools: e.g., Playwright/Cypress, Jest/Vitest, visual regression, contract testing, performance testing.
  • Significant experience with CI/CD environment configuration, test planning for an agile / iterative software development lifecycle, artifact management, documentation, monorepo / multi-repo strategies.
  • Experience with JavaScript/TypeScript (frontend focus) and proficiency with at least one scripting language (e.g., Python) for tooling.
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred), Docker, Kubernetes, basic security testing concepts.
  • Familiarity with applying agentic AI in test automation (e.g., test generation, metrics capture, user alerting, self-healing, intelligent triage).
  • Excellent communicator who can gain consensus on a vision across all stakeholders while shipping artifacts, briefing executives on risk while unblocking engineers with tools and automation.
  • Ability to operate in regulated / mission contexts (e.g., DOD network security compliance)
