We're looking for a Lead QA Automation Engineer (Offshore - India)

As the Lead QA Automation Engineer, you will take ownership of the quality assurance efforts, leading a team of engineers and driving innovation in test automation and quality processes. You will mentor junior team members, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and develop automation strategies that enable scalability and improve testing efficiency

Own and evolve the end-to-end quality strategy, balancing test coverage, risk mitigation, and velocity. You'll set direction for test architecture, frameworks, and AI-powered automation initiatives that scale with the business.
Lead Agile QA practices across multiple teams, ensuring test efforts are seamlessly integrated into iterative development cycles and aligned with product priorities and customer impact.
Architect, implement, and maintain advanced automation frameworks (primarily using Playwright) that support UI, API, mobile, performance,



and cross-browser/email testing in CI/CD pipelines.
Design and deploy AI/ML-enhanced capabilities including LLM-driven test generation, self-healing locators, test flakiness prediction, and intelligent test selection based on code coverage and user behavior data.
Spearhead testing initiatives across accessibility, performance, and regression—owning quality gates that span the entire release lifecycle, not just isolated test cases.
Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, and SRE to embed quality as a shared responsibility, ensuring that quality metrics and signals are integrated into planning and deployment decisions.- - Continuously evaluate and adopt emerging tools and technologies in AI automation, telemetry, and observability to improve test speed, signal, and maintainability.
Mentor and upskill QA engineers and developers, fostering a culture of continuous learning and experimentation in intelligent automation and modern quality

6+ years of progressive experience in QA automation and test engineering, driving strategy, architecture, and execution for automation at scale.

- Deep expertise in modern test frameworks, with a solid preference for Playwright (TypeScript/JavaScript) in complex web environments. Experience with complementary tools like Cypress or Postman is a plus.
- Proven track record designing, building, and evolving automation frameworks that operate reliably in CI/CD pipelines—emphasizing modularity, maintainability, and parallel execution at scale.
- Hands-on experience with AI-augmented testing practices,



such as:
- Implementing ML-based test prioritization or flaky test detection.
- Building intelligent test selection or orchestration systems using production analytics or code coverage data.
- Strong testing breadth: Front-end (DOM/UI flows), back-end (API contracts, service logic), mobile, email, performance, and security/compliance.
- Experience mentoring and leading QA or SDET teams, with the ability to coach engineers in advanced test automation, advocate for quality culture, and influence engineering practices across orgs.
- Fluency in Agile or Kanban environments, with experience embedding automation into iterative delivery and release pipelines.
- Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills, with a strong bias toward root cause analysis and system-level thinking.
