About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Own quality outcomes for one or more product domains end-to-end from requirements through production monitoring.
Drive a shift-left quality culture by embedding testing strategy and risk analysis early in the design and decomposition process.
Lead the design, development, and maintenance of automated test frameworks across UI, API, and data layers.
Leverage agentic AI-First tooling to accelerate test generation, coverage analysis, defect triage, and root cause investigation.
Define and enforce testing standards, patterns, and best practices across the QA team.
Conduct test design reviews and provide constructive feedback to QA engineers.
Mentor junior QA engineers, reinforcing best practices and supporting their professional growth.
Collaborate closely with developers, product owners, and stakeholders to deeply understand business intent and translate it into comprehensive test strategies.
Analyze system behavior holistically. Identify edge cases, integration risks, and failure modes that others miss.
Contribute to observability and monitoring strategies, ensuring production quality signals are in place (DataDog, RUM, APM).
Ensure all quality activities are properly estimated and delivered to agreed timeframes and quality standards.
Champion continuous improvement of the team's quality processes, tooling, and delivery pipeline.
Leverage "innovation time" to explore new testing approaches, tools, and automation strategies.

Requirements

What you’ll need

5+ years of experience in software quality engineering within the Global Trade industry, specifically in logistics, customs, or supply chain management.
10+ years of overall software quality engineering experience across diverse tech stacks and application types.
Proven ability to think at the system and domain level showing understanding of how components interact and where risk lives, not just executing test cases.
3+ years of hands-on experience using agentic AI-First development and testing tools and processes.
Strong proficiency in test automation across UI, API, and data layers using modern frameworks (e.g., Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, RestAssured, or equivalent).
Proficiency in testing REST APIs, including tooling such as Swagger and Postman.
Experience testing applications built on .NET (C#, VB.NET) and Angular front-end frameworks.
Experience validating both SQL and NoSQL data persistence layers (MSSQL, PostgreSQL, DynamoDB).
Working knowledge of DataDog for observability, APM, and RUM from a quality and monitoring perspective.
Experience with AWS and/or GCP cloud-native application testing.
Comfort with iterative, spec-light delivery. You will not receive a full spec upfront and will need to think things through, fill in the blanks, and adapt your testing strategy across sprints as the product evolves.
A firm understanding of application security testing from both the web service and web application perspective.
Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills with a relentless drive to find root cause.
Strong communication and collaboration skills. Able to clearly articulate quality risk and status to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
SaaS-based software quality engineering experience on large to enterprise-class applications.
