Senior Software QA/CI Automation Lead

Role Overview

• Lead Automated QA
• Own the design, implementation, and continuous improvement of automated QA for embedded system, integration, network, and software system testing.
• Drive Test Infrastructure
• Drive the architecture and feature set of the CI test infrastructure, including agentic requirements, hardware requirements, test harnesses, fixtures, reporting utilities, and framework extensions.
• Build Reliable Regression Coverage
• Convert cross-team tests and recurring debug workflows into automated regression suites that provide reliable quality signal across products and validation cycles.
• Improve CI/CD Pipeline Quality
• Configure, maintain, and improve CI/CD systems; monitor results, reduce flaky tests, improve signal-to-noise ratio, and strengthen pipeline reliability.
• Own Agentic Failure Triage and Debug Workflows
• Lead CI failure triage by specifying and developing AI agents(s) that can distinguish infrastructure issues, test defects, configuration problems, and product defects, then driving issues through resolution.
• Define Quality Gates and Reporting
• Partner with software, systems, network, and product engineering teams to define validation coverage, release-readiness criteria, dashboards, status reporting, and actionable CI metrics.
• Drive Cross-Team Validation Alignment
• Collaborate across engineering teams to align validation plans with key feature delivery dates, product milestones, defect priorities, and release commitments.
• Champion AI-Assisted Development
• Evaluate and promote AI-assisted development tools for coding, debugging, test reviews, documentation, and workflow improvements that increase development velocity and code quality.
• Continuously Improve Validation Practices
• Identify gaps in automation coverage, CI infrastructure, documentation, and validation processes; propose practical solutions and drive improvements through completion.

Requirements

• B.S. or M.S. degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Technology, or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
• 8+ years of experience in software QA, system validation, test automation, CI automation, integration testing, or related engineering roles.
• Hands-on experience building, maintaining, or improving CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience leading automated regression strategy, CI test development, failure triage, or pipeline quality improvement efforts.
• Experience with system-level or integration-level software validation.
• Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills across software, system, network, configuration, infrastructure, or test automation layers.
• Working knowledge of version control software such as Git.
• Excellent communication, organization, and time management skills.
• Experience collaborating across engineering teams to turn requirements, defects, and debug workflows into automated validation coverage.
