Responsibilities

• Maintain high data hygiene across QA reporting tools and trackers.
• Operationalize the CoE’s automated “rules of the road” across complex integrated ecosystems to modernize legacy testing practices.
• Drive operational QA execution and technical engineering leadership within each release cycle for major programs.
• Operationalize and scale the frameworks, platforms, and tooling built by the QA COE, driving the execution of QA governance, quality gates, and defect management discipline across the enterprise.
• Implement AI-driven efficiencies to optimize test generation, accelerate release cycles, and scale test coverage without increasing manual overhead.
• Conduct structured walkthroughs of test scenarios with IT Business Systems Analysts ("BSAs") and Business teams before testing begins to prevent requirement leakage.
• Own enterprise-level test management, utilization, and tracking within X-Ray to ensure structured and transparent execution visibility.
• Take full ownership of QA ceremonies and drive active participation from senior stakeholders to ensure quality goals align with business priorities.
• Coordinate directly with Business Systems Analysts (BSAs), Product Owners, and Engineers to orchestrate structured test scenario walkthroughs, directly mitigating requirement leakage before testing execution begins.

Requirements

• Strong hands-on experience in QA Automation and framework extension, specifically utilizing Playwright and CI/CD pipelines via Jenkins.
• Expert-level experience in defect lifecycle management, including the ability to conduct verified Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and leakage analysis.
• Expert-level experience with enterprise test management tools, specifically X-Ray and Jira, including the enforcement of bi-directional traceability and data hygiene.
• Demonstrated experience implementing and utilizing AI-enabled test frameworks, predictive analytics, or self-healing automation tools to extend testing capacity.

Qualifications

• Deep understanding of test execution governance.
• Experience managing end-to-end testing for complex, integrated ecosystems involving multiple vendor platforms and diverse technical stacks is an advantage.
• A demonstrated ability to influence cross-functional teams and drive compliance with enterprise standards without impeding delivery velocity.
