We are seeking a hands-on QA Engineering Manager to lead the transformation of Quality Engineering by advancing test automation and introducing AI/LLM-driven (agentic) testing capabilities. This role will focus on assessing and modernizing an existing QA function, increasing automation maturity, and establishing a more engineering-driven testing model. The ideal candidate brings a strong background in automation, scripting, and QA leadership, along with exposure to emerging AI-driven testing approaches.
Responsibilities
- Evaluate current QA processes and identify opportunities to improve automation, efficiency, and coverage
- Lead the transition from manual testing to an automation-first approach
- Design and implement scalable automated test frameworks across web, mobile, and API applications
- Introduce and evolve AI-assisted/LLM-based testing approaches (test generation, optimization, self-healing test scripts)
- Translate business requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria into automated test assets
- Establish best practices for integrating AI into QA within enterprise constraints
- Partner with engineering teams to integrate automated testing into CI/CD pipelines
- Ensure alignment between QA strategy and product delivery, user journeys, and business outcomes
- Contribute hands-on to test automation development and scripting
- Lead and mentor QA engineers, driving a more engineering-focused culture
- Balance hands-on technical contributions with team leadership responsibilities
- Improve team effectiveness and delivery through better tooling, processes, and standards
- Ensure QA practices align with enterprise risk, controls, and audit requirements
- Implement validation checkpoints and maintain high standards for test quality and reliability
Requirements
- 7–10+ years of experience in Quality Engineering / QA Automation
- Experience leading QA teams within large-scale Agile environments
- Strong hands-on expertise with test automation tools (e.g., Selenium, Playwright, Cypress)
- Proficiency in test scripting and development (Java, Python, or similar)
- Experience with web, mobile, and API testing
- Exposure to AI/LLM-based testing or automation enhancements
- Experience integrating automated testing within CI/CD pipelines
- Strong understanding of QA processes, defect management, and testing strategies
- Ability to operate effectively in structured, regulated environments (financial services experience preferred)
Nice-to-haves
- Experience with agentic AI concepts (multi-agent systems, self-healing automation, human-in-the-loop validation)
- Background in improving or scaling QA functions from low to high automation maturity
- Familiarity with modern AI-enabled QA tools and frameworks
Benefits
- Paid time off based on employee grade (A-F), defined by policy: Vacation: 12-25 days, depending on grade, Company paid holidays, Personal Days, Sick Leave
- Medical, dental, and vision coverage (or provincial healthcare coordination in Canada)
