About the role

We need a senior QA professional to assess our current QA practices, set up the right processes, and guide junior team members on execution. You will then scale the practice with Playwright automation.

Responsibilities

Assess existing QA processes, tools and coverage; identify gaps and drive an improvement roadmap.

Define test strategy, QA processes and quality metrics (coverage, defect leakage, release sign-off).

Guide and mentor junior QA engineers on test design, execution and automation.

Build a scalable Playwright (TypeScript) framework for UI and API tests.

Integrate automation into CI/CD with quality gates and clear reporting.

Drive adoption of AI in testing: agentic AI for test generation, self-healing scripts and failure triage, using Playwright MCP and similar tools.

Define QA approaches for AI-powered features, including LLM output evaluation and agent workflow testing.

Partner with dev and product teams to make quality a shared responsibility.

Must have

8–10 years in QA, 4+ years in test automation.

2+ years hands-on Playwright with TypeScript/JavaScript.

Proven experience assessing and setting up a QA practice from scratch.

Strong API testing, CI/CD (GitHub Actions, Jenkins or similar) and Git skills.

Experience leading and coaching junior QA engineers.

Hands-on use of AI coding assistants and agentic AI tools (e.g. Playwright MCP, Claude, GitHub Copilot) in QA workflows.

Good to have

Selenium/Cypress to Playwright migration experience.

Performance, accessibility or visual testing exposure.

ISTQB or equivalent certification.

Experience building or testing MCP servers, AI agents or LLM-based applications (evals, prompt and guardrail testing).

What you'll own

The quality charter. Define and evolve the testing strategy — web application, dashboards, APIs, webhooks, and customer integrations. Establish release criteria, coverage expectations, and quality gates that engineers actually respect because they're fast and they catch real bugs. Automation at scale. Build and maintain end-to-end and API automation suites that run on every PR and give a trustworthy signal. Own the flake rate. Design for parallel execution, deterministic test data, and fast feedback — a suite nobody trusts is worse than no suite. Performance and reliability. Design and run load, stress, and soak tests against APIs and the platform. Profile results, isolate bottlenecks with the engineers who own the service, and set up the monitoring that tells us about degradation before a customer does. Leverage through tooling, including AI. Use whatever gets coverage up and cycle time down: LLM-assisted test case generation from specs, AI-assisted authoring and maintenance of automation, synthetic test data generation, log and failure triage. We expect you to be opinionated about where these tools genuinely help and where they produce impressive-looking noise. Raising the bar. Partner with product and engineering from spec through release so quality risk is surfaced during design, not after code freeze. Mentor the QA team and build the practices — bug triage discipline, root cause analysis, prevention over detection — that outlast any single release.

What we're looking for

Must have

3–6 years in QA roles, with meaningful ownership of automation frameworks rather than only executing existing suites.

Strong test automation skills with a modern framework — Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium — and solid coding ability in Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, or Java. You should be comfortable reading application code, not just testing around it.

API testing experience: REST, auth, webhooks and asynchronous event flows, contract testing, and tooling such as Postman, REST Assured, or Pact.

Hands-on CI/CD integration — GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or equivalent — including making suites fast and reliable enough to gate merges.

Working knowledge of SQL for validating data correctness, and comfort with logs, traces, and observability tooling for debugging.

Rigorous, systematic thinking about edge cases and failure modes, and the communication skills to make quality risk legible to product and leadership.

Nice to have

Experience testing AI, ML, or LLM-based products, and comfort with the reality that outputs are probabilistic rather than deterministic. Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, or cloud infrastructure for standing up test environments.

Performance and load testing with k6, JMeter, Gatling, or Locust, plus the analytical ability to turn results into a specific, actionable bottleneck. Exposure to enterprise SaaS with real integration surface area, or to security and compliance testing expectations of enterprise buyers. - Experience as the first or most senior quality voice on a team.

What we offer

Competitive compensation with equity. Direct ownership of a charter that materially affects how enterprise customers experience our product.

Proximity to frontier AI systems in production, and the freedom to use modern tooling to do your job well.

A fast-moving team where the distance between an idea and a shipped change is short.
