Job Overview

This is an automation-first QA role with a strong emphasis on testing architecture, AI-assisted productivity, and decision-making. You will be responsible for designing and executing intelligent testing systems that reduce timelines, improve release confidence, and elevate user experience. You are expected to think beyond execution, question flows, challenge assumptions, and act as a quality advisor to both internal teams and clients.

Own test strategy, test planning, and testing timelines across projects
Design scalable testing architecture, including automation layers, test data strategy, and environment setup
Determine what should be automated vs. manually tested to maximize ROI and reduce regression time
Evaluate features from a real-user and UX perspective, not just functional correctness
Proactively identify edge cases, logical gaps, and quality risks early in the development lifecycle
Join projects at any phase (start, mid, or pre-release) and quickly stabilize quality
Collaborate with developers and product teams to shift quality left
Use AI effectively to understand codebases, features, and workflows, reducing KT and onboarding time
Leverage agentic AI workflows to accelerate test design, coverage, and analysis
Handle client communication related to quality, resolve conflicts, and take quality-first decisions when trade-offs arise
Continuously improve the testing process to reduce timelines while increasing release confidence

Proven ability to use AI tools and agentic AI systems to
Understand large codebases and feature logic
Generate intelligent test scenarios and edge cases
Reduce KT and onboarding time
Strong context management skills, enabling AI agents to work faster and deliver higher-quality outputs
Ability to combine human judgment with AI acceleration, not over-reliance

Testing Ownership & Decision-Making

Ability to estimate testing efforts and timelines accurately
Confidence to make and defend quality-driven decisions
Skilled at balancing quality, timelines, and client expectations
Acts as a quality owner, not just a test executor

2 years of professional experience in both manual and automation testing.
Strong knowledge of software testing methodologies and best practices.
Hands-on experience with automation tools like Selenium, TestNG, JUnit, or JavaScript.
Familiarity with bug tracking tools such as JIRA, Bugzilla, or similar platforms.
Basic understanding of API testing and tools like Postman is a plus.
Solid analytical and problem-solving skills.
