About the role

We are looking for a Senior/Lead QA Automation Engineer to own and evolve automated testing frameworks, introduce AI-assisted QA practices, and define quality engineering strategy across an AI-driven product development environment. You will architect automation across the full testing stack — unit, integration, API, UI, performance, and security — integrate quality gates into CI/CD pipelines, design evaluation frameworks for LLM-based features, and mentor engineers in modern automation and AI-augmented workflows.

What you will do

  • Own and evolve the organization’s automated testing framework and QA tooling ecosystem;
  • Define and standardize AI-assisted testing practices, including test case/data generation, coverage discovery, and responsible AI guardrails;
  • Implement intelligent test selection, regression analysis, and measurable quality metrics to optimize release quality and reduce risk;
  • Ensure AI-augmented tests remain deterministic, maintainable, production-ready, and supported by traceability, validation, and drift detection;
  • Architect and scale automation across unit, integration, API, UI, contract, performance, and security testing;
  • Champion modern testing principles, integrate automation into CI/CD, and enforce quality gates and release readiness criteria;
  • Design evaluation frameworks for AI-powered features, including prompt robustness, deterministic validation, and human-in-the-loop review where appropriate;
  • Lead root-cause analysis for systemic quality issues and continuously improve automation ROI and test effectiveness;
  • Mentor engineers on modern automation, AI-assisted workflows, prompt engineering, and review standards for AI-generated code;
  • Define and track QA KPIs, provide data-driven Go/No-Go recommendations, and improve testing strategy based on measurable outcomes;
  • Partner with Engineering, Product, Security, and DevOps to embed quality early, influence architecture, and integrate accessibility, security, and privacy testing throughout the SDLC.

Must haves

  • 5+ years of experience in software quality engineering, test automation, or SDET roles;
  • 3+ years leading automation strategy or serving as a senior technical QA authority;
  • Hands-on experience using AI tools for test generation, refactoring, and automation maintenance;
  • Experience evaluating LLM-based systems (prompt robustness, structured outputs, drift detection, and versioned regression suites);
  • Strong proficiency in at least one programming language (TypeScript, Java, Python, etc.) and modern test frameworks (e.g., Playwright, Cypress, Selenium);
  • Demonstrated experience designing, maintaining, and scaling test automation frameworks and CI/CD quality gates;
  • Strong understanding of distributed systems, HTTP lifecycle, and database querying (SQL/NoSQL);
  • Experience mentoring engineers and leading quality initiatives with measurable outcomes;
  • Upper-intermediate English level.

Nice to haves

  • Working knowledge of secure testing practices (OWASP Top 10) and performance testing strategy;
  • Familiarity with compliance, privacy, or regulated industry SaaS environments;
  • Experience implementing performance/load testing strategies;
  • Experience with accessibility testing strategy and tooling.

Perks

  • Growth without limits: build your skills through mentorship, internal TechTalks, challenging projects, and a dedicated annual learning budget
  • Competitive compensation: get recognition that reflects your skills and impact, with regular performance and compensation reviews
  • Flexibility: work 100% remotely with flexible hours that support focus, autonomy, and a healthy work rhythm
  • Meaningful, modern projects: build impactful products using modern technologies alongside global teams and leading brands
  • Collaborative culture: join a supportive environment with zero micromanagement where ideas are welcomed and contributions are recognized
  • Well-being & support: access local well-being programs and people-focused support tailored to your location

FAQ

Have any questions?

What is the work format and schedule?

We are a remote-first company, so all our positions are remote. Schedules are flexible, but the main requirement is to have an overlap with your client’s schedule to ensure smooth collaboration. Specific details depend on the project and are discussed during the interview process.

What level of English is required?

We look for Upper-Intermediate (B2) proficiency or higher. Since you will be collaborating with international teams and global clients (including Fortune 500 companies), English is a part of your daily work.

Does AgileEngine provide work equipment?

It depends on your location. We provide equipment in Ukraine, Poland, Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Brazil, Guatemala, Portugal, Spain, and India. In the USA, equipment is usually provided by the client; otherwise, you will be expected to use your own setup.

What opportunities for professional growth do you offer?

We support continuous growth through personalized development paths tailored to each expert. Also, you can expect:

  • An annual learning and development budget
  • Internal workshops, tech talks, and mentorship programs
  • Opportunities to switch projects or grow into new roles over time

What does a typical team look like, and what tools do you use?

Teams vary by project, but you’ll usually work with a mix of experts across different fields, along with a delivery or project manager who supports collaboration and onboarding.

For day-to-day work, teams commonly use tools like Jira and Google Workspace, along with communication platforms such as Google Chat. Depending on the client, you may also work with Slack, Confluence, Notion, or similar tools.
