About the role

We are looking for an experienced Senior QA Automation Engineer to drive the quality strategy for our product and lead a blended team of manual and automation testers.

• Lead, mentor, and manage a team of manual and automation QA engineers — including sprint planning, task allocation, and performance reviews
• Drive automation framework design, tool selection, and coverage roadmap in partnership with automation engineers
• Define and track quality metrics (defect density, test coverage, automation ROI, escape rate) and report status to engineering leadership
• Act as the primary QA point of contact in sprint ceremonies, release planning, and go/no-go decisions

• 7–13 yrs of experience
• API testing
• Bug tracking
• Selenium
• Performance testing
• Test automation
• Test cases
• B.Tech or B.E. or B.Sc or BCA
