Automation & Standards: Lead the design and development of scalable and maintainable automation frameworks and test infrastructure. Establish and enforce robust testing standards, coding guidelines for automation, and quality gates for your domain. Define and track key Quality Metrics (e.g., defect density, automation coverage, test execution time, escape defects) to measure and improve product quality. Ensure API testing standards are consistent and effective for backend and service integrations. Mentorship & Enablement: Provide technical guidance and mentorship to QE Engineers embedded within vertical product teams, fostering a culture of technical excellence and continuous improvement. Conduct training sessions and workshops on new tools, techniques, and quality processes. Support product teams in troubleshooting complex quality issues and implementing effective testing strategies.
