Job Details Description About Archer A new regulatory change lands somewhere in the world every six minutes, and agentic AI is outpacing most teams' ability to govern it. At Archer, we help the enterprises powering the global economy turn that pressure into an advantage. Mandates like the EU AI Act and the SEC cybersecurity disclosure rules are driving the most significant GRC buying cycle we have seen in years.

That demand is why we are growing this team. This is hard work that matters. Our customers span energy, utilities, financial services, pharmaceuticals, and the public institutions communities depend on.

People choose Archer because they get to partner with the most trusted brands in the world, on work that protects the customers and communities those brands serve. If that sounds like your kind of work, let's chat.

The Role

Quality is not something we inspect at the end of a release; it's something we build into every stage of engineering. As a Senior Quality Engineer, you will be responsible for elevating product quality through intelligent test strategies, automation, continuous validation, performance engineering, and close partnership with engineering and product teams. You'll help teams identify risks early, find defects quickly, and ensure every release meets high standards for functionality, performance, security, and reliability.

This is an exciting opportunity to shape the future of quality engineering by leveraging modern CI/CD practices, AI-powered engineering tools, and data-driven decision making while collaborating with globally distributed teams Name the team, key stakeholders this person will work with, who they report to and the one or two main areas of ownership. What You’ll Do Quality Strategy & Risk-Based Testing Lead quality planning and risk assessment activities across product initiatives and releases.

Analyze code changes, feature implementations, and architectural impacts to determine optimal test coverage and identify high-risk areas before defects reach customers.

Drive a shift-left quality culture by partnering with engineering teams to prevent defects early in the software development lifecycle.

Test Automation Excellence





Build and evolve scalable automation frameworks that improve test coverage, execution speed, and maintainability.

Drive automation across UI, API, integration, and end-to-end testing layers.

Continuously optimize automated validation to reduce manual effort and accelerate release confidence.

Expert knowledge in Playwright tool CI/CD & Continuous Quality Engineering Own quality gates within CI/CD pipelines to provide fast, actionable feedback on every change.

Partner with engineering and DevOps teams to integrate automated testing, code quality checks, and release validation into deployment workflows.

Drive improvements that reduce production defects, improve deployment confidence, and shorten feedback cycles.

Performance

Engineering & Reliability Lead performance testing initiatives to validate scalability, reliability, and responsiveness of applications under varying workloads.

Build performance benchmarks and proactively identify bottlenecks before they impact customers.

Partner with engineering teams to improve application resilience, capacity planning, and operational readiness.

Knowledge in performance testing tools such as K6, JMeter or similar platforms. Security & Secure Development Reviews Drive quality reviews focused on security, vulnerability prevention, and secure coding practices.

Partner with development teams to identify potential security gaps through code reviews, automated scanning, and risk assessments.

Ensure security validation becomes an integral part of the software delivery lifecycle rather than a release-stage activity. AI-Driven Quality Innovation Evaluate and adopt AI-powered solutions that improve test creation, defect detection, root cause analysis, and engineering productivity.





Experiment with emerging AI technologies to modernize quality engineering practices.

Champion innovative approaches that improve quality outcomes while reducing engineering effort. Cross-Functional Leadership & Execution Partner closely with Product Management, Engineering, DevOps, Security, and global stakeholders to deliver high-quality customer outcomes.
