Role

We are looking for a highly technical and strategic Quality Engineering leader to transform our QA organization from a traditional testing function into a modern engineering-driven quality practice.

This role is critical for improving product quality, scalability, regression effectiveness, performance benchmarking, and production stability across our enterprise fintech products.

The ideal candidate will bring deep expertise in:

- enterprise product testing,

- performance engineering,

- risk-based regression strategies,

- automation architecture,

- data-intensive systems,

- and quality transformation in complex product organizations.

This is not a regular QA management role. We are looking for a leader who can think like an engineer, challenge system assumptions, improve observability, and build a quality-first engineering culture.

The role requires solid understanding of large-scale enterprise systems, performance bottlenecks, concurrency, and risk-based testing.

Key Responsibilities

QE Transformation - Transform QA from execution-centric testing into an engineering-led quality practice and build a culture of proactive risk identification and production-focused validation.

Regression Strategy & Test Architecture - Redesign regression strategy using risk-based and impact-based testing principles. Ensuring that regression suite does not bloat with new use cases

Performance Engineering - Build modular and diagnosable performance engineering frameworks. Replace huge end-to-end performance suites with observable benchmarking approaches.

Define workload modelling, concurrency testing, scalability benchmarking, and release-over-release performance baselines. Partner with engineering and DB teams to identify bottlenecks





Automation & Engineering Excellence - Define scalable automation architecture and automation standards. Improve automation reliability, maintainability, and CI/CD integration. Reduce flaky tests and excessive UI dependency.

Cross-Functional Leadership, across engineering, Product, Architecture, Devops, Support and Cient Services

Metrics & Governance - Define meaningful, outcome driven quality metrics

Required Skills & Experience

Experience - 12–18+ years in Quality Engineering / Testing. 5+ years leading QA transformation initiatives in product organizations. Strong experience in enterprise product companies preferred.

Technical Skills - Strong hands-on understanding of:

- enterprise application architecture,

- API and integration testing,

- performance engineering,

- database systems (Oracle, PostgreSQL, MSSQL),

- batch processing systems,

- concurrency and scalability testing,

- automation frameworks,

- CI/CD quality integration,

- and production diagnostics.

Domain Experience - Preferred experience in one or more domains fintech domain esp reconciliation

Leadership Expectations - The ideal candidate should think independently and challenge assumptions, bring strong systems thinking

- coach teams toward exploratory and production-risk-oriented testing,

- influence engineering teams technically,

- and drive measurable quality improvements at organizational scale.

Education

- Bachelor’s or master’s degree in engineering / computer science or related discipline.

Nice to Have

- Experience with distributed systems and cloud-native platforms.

- Exposure to observability platforms and production monitoring.

- Experience establishing performance labs and benchmarking frameworks.

- Exposure to SRE or reliability engineering practices.
