Sr. Tech Lead

Job title: Chief Agentic Quality Architect

Type: Full-Time | Contract

Location: Remote

Role Overview

Equity Partners builds profitable growth by acquiring and operating enterprise software companies — refining a proprietary operating model across 40+ acquisitions and two decades of hands-on experience, now supercharged by our patented agentic AI platform. We're hiring a Chief Agentic Quality Architect to lead the transition from traditional scripted testing to an AI-augmented quality ecosystem. In this role, you'll audit and rebuild our quality engineering foundations, deploy agentic automation across critical business flows, and build the guardrails needed to keep AI-generated code production-ready.

Key Skills

• 10+ years in QA automation engineering, SDET, or test architecture roles
• Expert-level proficiency in Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium
• Hands-on experience using LLMs (Claude, GPT-4, etc.) and agentic frameworks to generate code or automate workflows
• Deep understanding of integrating quality gates into AWS-based CI/CD pipelines or similar environments
• Architectural mindset, with the ability to design "Behavioral Snapshots" to safeguard critical business logic during rapid transformation

Responsibilities

• Conduct a comprehensive audit of the existing test estate across unit, integration, API, UI, sanity, and regression layers, producing a Current State & Gap Coverage Report
• Architect and own a phased quality engineering roadmap across two-week, one-month, and three-month delivery horizons
• Deploy agentic test generation — transforming business requirements into executable Playwright/Cypress scripts, generating synthetic test data, and implementing self-healing automation
• Design regression strategies and quality gates specifically tuned to catch hallucinations and logic errors in AI-generated code
• Build, mentor, and upskill a specialist QA team fluent in AI-assisted testing and agentic automation frameworks

If you're ready to rewrite the rules of quality for an AI-native world, we want you leading the charge.
