<p>Operating at a Leadership level, you combine deep hands-on testing execution (Manual, E2E/API Automation, Performance, and Security awareness) with strategic Quality Enablement.

<li>Enforce the Test Pyramid: guide teams on when to build API vs. UI tests to maximize regression feedback speed and lower runtime costs.</li>
<li>Conduct hands-on automation code reviews, enforce coding standards, eliminate test flakiness, and integrate quality gates into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI).</li>
</ul>
<h3><strong>Quality Enablement &amp; Outsource Governance</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>Enable outsourced QA teams (e.g., in HCM) and internal squad members by providing test harnesses, reusable playbooks, and targeted technical mentoring.</li>
<li>Drive Shift-Left testing practices during early discovery, validating wireframes, PRDs, and logic models to prevent defects before implementation.</li>
<li>Establish performance, load, and basic security testing strategies for B2B financial/back-office workflows.</li>
</ul>
<h3><strong>AI Adoption &amp; AI-Augmented Testing</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>Lead the team in adopting Generative AI tools (e.g., Cursor, GitHub Copilot, LLM assistants) to accelerate test design, script generation, and triage.</li>
<li>Conduct scenario-based exploratory testing and output validation for AI-assisted product features (chatbots, agents, automated suggestions).</li>
<li>Define internal guidelines for safe, compliant AI tool usage adhering to company data privacy standards.</li>
</ul>
<h2><strong>Your skills and experience</strong></h2>
<h2><strong>III. Required Qualifications</strong></h2>
