we are looking for a Senior QA Lead to act as a Quality Owner, driving scalable, consistent, and measurable quality across multiple development teams.
quality is owned by development teams. The QA Lead ensures this ownership is effective, aligned, and continuously improving - by defining standards, enabling teams, and providing system-level visibility and risk assessment.
The QA Lead engages at key points in the development lifecycle, focusing on high-impact areas such as complex features, cross-team flows, and potential risk zones.
This role focuses on strategy, enablement, and system thinking, rather than hands-on execution of tests.
In this role, you will be responsible for:
Leading quality strategy across teams, including defining testing approaches across different testing layers
Defining and driving quality standards, including Definition of Done and CI expectations
Prioritizing involvement based on impact and risk, focusing on high-impact areas such as complex features, cross-team flows, and potential risk zones
Establishing and monitoring quality metrics, and providing clear visibility into quality health
Leading cross-team quality efforts, especially around integrations, shared flows, and areas with unclear ownership
Building and maintaining a system-level understanding that enables early identification of gaps beyond individual team boundaries
Guiding development teams in test design and coverage decisions, promoting strong quality ownership within teams
Promoting effective and responsible use of AI in testing and quality processes
Driving continuous improvement in quality practices, while acting as a knowledge center for quality and system behavior within your domain
Requirements: 7+ years of QA experience (Web-oriented) - must
2+ Previous experience as a QA lead or tech lead - must
Strong understanding of modern testing approaches (shift-left, CI/CD, test pyramid)
Experience defining testing strategies and improving quality practices across teams
Experience influencing design and identifying gaps early in the development lifecycle
Strong system thinking and ability to understand cross-team dependencies
Ability to prioritize effectively and make decisions based on impact and risk
Ability to influence teams without direct authority
Hands-on experience with test automation frameworks (Selenium WebDriver, Playwright or similar) - an advantage
Experience in backend / API testing - an advantage
Experience with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices - an advantage
Experience with a relational database - an advantage
Self-motivated, detail-oriented and organized
Excellent problem solving and troubleshooting skills
Strong communication skills in English (written and verbal)
This position is open to all candidates.
