Full Job Posting
Leadership
At least 5 years' experience as a QA Engineer, with at least 2 years in a QA Lead, Principal QA, or equivalent quality leadership role
Experience line-managing direct reports across multiple teams
Excellent verbal and written communication skills — a natural influencer who can persuade, coach, and align engineers, squad leads, and Heads of Engineering behind a shared quality vision
Demonstrated experience leading process and/or tooling change across multiple teams
Experience designing quality metrics programmes and reporting release/quality KPIs (e.g. change failure rate, deployment frequency, escape rate, test coverage) to senior engineering stakeholders
AI & agentic testing
A clear, articulated point of view on how AI and agentic tooling change the QA operating model — not just exposure to a tool, but experience evaluating, piloting, and governing its adoption
Practical, hands-on experience with at least one of: AI-assisted test generation, autonomous test agents, LLM-driven exploratory testing, or AI-assisted triage — with a concrete example of what you introduced, how you assessed it, and what happened
Technical
Hands-on experience with test automation in API/backend
Experience with test automation frameworks (e.g. Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, Cucumber)
Comfortable with Git and CI tooling (e.g. Jenkins, TeamCity, CircleCI, GitHub Actions)
Knowledge of bug tracking and test case management tools (e.g. Jira, TestRail, Zephyr, qTest, PractiTest, or similar)
Understanding of BDD and shift-left quality — and experience embedding QA earlier in the requirements/design process, not just at test execution
ISTQB/ISEB foundation certificate or higher, or equivalent demonstrated expertise
Desirable
Commercial experience using Kotlin
Experience with mobile test automation frameworks (e.g. Maestro, Appium, XCUITest, Espresso)
Experience with contract testing, performance testing, or firmware/hardware-in-the-loop test strategy
Experience working for a product centric organisation
