• Serve as a leader among the QA team, mentoring QA Engineers through pairing, review of test assets, and feedback
• Partner continuously with the QA Director to evaluate new QA processes, procedures, tools, and AI-assisted testing approaches, and provide guidance on whether they should be adopted across the team
• Translate requirements, acceptance criteria and Figma designs into clear, testable scenarios in partnership with BAs and developers
• Drive defect triage: severity/priority assignment, reproduction quality, verification, and regression checks
• Document defects clearly and thoroughly, including steps to reproduce, environment details, and expected versus actual results, to support efficient triage and resolution
• Coordinate UAT planning with BA/PMO and client stakeholders, and support go-live readiness reporting
• Contribute to and help evolve reusable QA assets — templates, regression suites, automation patterns, and playbooks — across the practice
• Exercise sound judgment on where manual testing, automation, and AI-assisted tooling each provide the best return for a given project

What We'd Love to See

• 3+ years of automated testing experience (Cypress, Playwright, or similar), including test architecture design, reusable test utilities, test data strategy, CI/CD integration, and writing automated test scripts for functional and integration testing

• Demonstrated comfort using AI tools to support test case generation, test data creation, code review, or other QA workflows
• Prior experience mentoring or providing technical/QA leadership to other QA team members, and/or previous release management experienceli>
• Ability to work within an Agile or Waterfall environment, including identifying gaps, clarifying edge cases, and ensuring acceptance criteria are testable and aligned with business requirements
