Own quality, not just testing. Shape how a modern engineering team ships.

We are hiring a QA Lead Engineer for a leading US-based client. You will partner with engineering, product and architecture to deliver reliable, scalable software. You will own test strategy and execution across functional, integration and non-functional testing, so teams hit delivery dates without trading off quality.

Why this role stands out

- A seat at the table from design onwards, not at the end of the sprint
- Modern stack: microservices, event-driven systems, APIs and CI/CD
- Clear success measures: early defect detection, strong coverage, stable releases
- Room to build automation and shift-left practices your way

Shift and work mode

- US shift, aligned to Pacific Time (approx. 9:30 PM to 6:30 AM IST)

What you will do

- Test strategy: define test strategies and plans with engineers, BSAs and architects; find scenarios, edge cases and risks early
- Functional and integration testing: validate back-end services, APIs and front-end apps; test REST and event-driven systems, microservice workflows and state-based processes
- Data integrity: verify data across RDBMS and NoSQL systems
- Automation: build and maintain UI, API and integration test suites and plug them into CI/CD pipelines
- Non-functional testing: validate performance, scalability and resilience; support load,



stress and reliability testing; check security and compliance with the security team
- Defect management: log defects with clear reproduction steps, triage with engineers, verify fixes and stop regressions
- Quality advocacy: join backlog refinement, sprint planning and retrospectives; give early feedback that prevents defects
- Continuous improvement: raise QA standards and cut manual testing through automation

What you need

- 7+ years in Quality Assurance, Test Engineering or Software Testing with agile teams
- Robust grasp of the SDLC
- Testing web applications, APIs and distributed systems
- Hands-on with UI and API test automation frameworks
- Testing microservices and event-driven systems
- RESTful APIs, JSON and HTTP
- RDBMS and NoSQL databases
- Jira or similar test management and defect tracking tools
- CI/CD integration of automated tests
- Sharp analytical skills, attention to detail and clear communication

Good to have

- Performance testing tools
- Containerised and cloud environments
- Observability and monitoring tools
- Event-driven architecture experience
