Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced QA Team Leader to join our QA Group and lead a team of QA engineers while also taking an active hands-on technical role. In this position, you will combine people management with deep technical expertise — guiding your team's day-to-day work, owning the automation strategy and frameworks, and driving quality innovation through AI, CI/CD pipelines, and modern mobile & web testing technologies.

What You Will Do

• Team Leadership & People Management: Lead, mentor, and grow a hybrid team of QA engineers across local and remote locations — conduct 1:1s, support professional development, manage workloads, and foster a culture of quality, ownership, and continuous improvement across all team members regardless of location.
• Technical Leadership: Act as the technical authority for the team — set automation standards, conduct code reviews, guide architectural decisions, and ensure engineering excellence across all automation efforts.
• Requirements & Test Strategy: Collaborate with product, R&D, and QA stakeholders to translate requirements into comprehensive test strategies, automation plans, and quality gates.
• AI Implementation: Champion the adoption of AI tools across the QA lifecycle — from intelligent test generation to defect analysis, automated reporting, and productivity enhancements.
• CI/CD Automation: Design, implement, and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and related tooling to ensure continuous quality throughout the development process.
• Mobile & Web Automation Frameworks: Lead the architecture and ongoing development of automation frameworks using Appium, Selenium, and Cypress (JavaScript) for comprehensive mobile and web test coverage.
• API Testing & B2B Integration: Own the API testing strategy including public API and B2B integrations — ensuring reliability, contract compliance, and end-to-end coverage.
• Agile Delivery: Work within agile/scrum teams — participate in sprint ceremonies, manage the QA automation backlog, and ensure timely delivery of quality objectives aligned with product roadmaps.
  
  

Requirements:

• 5+ years of experience in QA automation, with at least 2–3 years in a team lead or senior role that included people management responsibilities.
• Proven ability to lead, mentor, and develop QA automation engineers in a hybrid environment — managing both local and remote team members.
• Strong hands-on expertise in Java/Python — including automation framework design and implementation.
• Proven experience building automation frameworks from scratch using Appium/Selenium/Cypress.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and integrating automated testing into continuous delivery workflows (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions).
• Experience in API testing.
• Proficiency with GIT.
• Familiarity with AI tools and the ability to apply them to automation processes.
• Experience working in Agile/Scrum environments.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills — able to work cross-functionally with development, product, and QA teams.
• Detail-oriented with a passion for quality, automation best practices, and continuous improvement.
  
  

Advantageous Experience

• B.Sc. in Computer Science or a related technical field.
• Hands-on experience working with containerized environments using Docker and Kubernetes.
• Knowledge of security testing practices — including security scans, CVE analysis, vulnerability assessments, and security protocols relevant to QA.
• Experience with test management tools (e.g., TestRail, Zephyr, Xray).
