Role Overview

We are looking for a hands-on QC Lead to own end-to-end quality assurance across enterprise web applications, mobile applications, APIs, databases and IoT/device-integrated solutions.

The candidate must have strong manual testing expertise, hands-on automation experience and the ability to introduce AI-assisted testing practices. This is a working-lead role requiring both technical contribution and team leadership.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own the complete testing lifecycle—from requirement analysis and test planning to release sign-off and production validation.
  • Define the test strategy covering manual, automation, API, database, mobile, integration and performance testing.
  • Understand business requirements and translate them into test scenarios, test cases and requirement traceability matrices.
  • Design, develop and maintain scalable automation frameworks for web applications, APIs and mobile applications.
  • Identify high-value regression scenarios and continuously increase automation coverage.
  • Integrate automated test suites with CI/CD pipelines and provide rapid release-quality feedback.
  • Perform functional, regression, integration, system, exploratory and end-to-end testing.
  • Validate complex workflows involving applications, devices, communication networks, APIs and third-party systems.
  • Perform database testing, backend validation and data reconciliation using SQL.
  • Plan performance, load, volume, reliability and failover testing for high-transaction systems.
  • Review automation code, test cases, test evidence and defect reports prepared by the QC team.
  • Lead defect triage, perform root-cause analysis and drive defects to closure with development teams.
  • Establish release-readiness criteria and provide evidence-based Go/No-Go recommendations.
  • Track defect leakage, automation coverage, test effectiveness and release-quality trends.
  • Mentor QC engineers and build team capability in automation and AI-assisted testing.
  • Coordinate with Product, Development, DevOps, Implementation and Support teams.

Automation Testing Requirements

  • Hands-on experience with Selenium, Playwright or Cypress.
  • Experience with Java and TestNG/JUnit, or an equivalent automation stack.
  • API automation experience using REST Assured, Postman/Newman or equivalent tools.
  • Exposure to mobile automation using Appium or similar tools.
  • Experience with performance testing tools such as JMeter or Gatling.
  • Strong understanding of reusable frameworks, page-object models, data-driven testing and test reporting.
  • Experience integrating automated tests with Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions or similar CI/CD platforms.
  • Working knowledge of Git and automated test execution in different environments.
  • Ability to analyse automation failures and distinguish product defects from script or environment issues.

AI-Assisted Testing Requirements

  • Practical understanding of using AI tools to generate, optimise and review test scenarios and automation scripts.
  • Ability to use AI for requirement analysis and identification of missing, duplicate or high-risk test cases.
  • Exposure to AI-assisted automation tools, self-healing locators or intelligent test-maintenance techniques.
  • Interest in building an AI-enabled, continuously improving QC process.

Required Skills

  • Strong understanding of SDLC, STLC, Agile methodologies and defect lifecycle management.
  • Strong experience in manual testing of complex enterprise applications.
  • Mandatory hands-on experience in test automation.
  • Good knowledge of REST APIs, microservices and distributed application architecture.
  • Strong SQL and database-testing skills, preferably with PostgreSQL.
  • Good leadership, planning, communication and stakeholder-management capabilities.
  • Ability to remain hands-on while leading and mentoring the testing team.

Preferred Experience

  • Testing utility, smart metering, IoT, billing, ERP or other large-scale enterprise platforms.
  • Device-to-platform and protocol-based integration testing.
  • Exposure to cloud-hosted and on-premises application environments.
  • Experience in security, reliability, failover and production-readiness testing.
  • ISTQB or equivalent testing certification is an advantage.
