We're looking for an SDET Automation Lead who can transform a technically capable but operationally strained QA team into a strategic, AI-powered quality engineering function. This is the opportunity to fundamentally rethink how we assure quality at scale.

What You'll Own

• Strategy & Architecture:
• Define key product quality metrics and build a strategic multi-quarter QA roadmap
• Execute the defined QA roadmap
• Expand test coverage systematically: prioritize by risk, by impact
• Own the test system infrastructure and the resource strategy
• People & Execution:
• Build a team culture focused on heavy AI & automation usage
• Restructure on-duty rotation so it's equitable and sustainable
• Mentor 6 SDETs from "test writers" to "product quality engineers" who own subsystems end-to-end
• Create career growth paths
  
  
  

Tech Stack:


Test Framework - pytest, Python, Playwright (emerging)

CI/CD - Jenkins (Multibranch Pipelines, 100+ jobs), GitLab CI (migration target)

Infrastructure - OpenNebula (VM orchestration), S3/Ceph

Reporting - Allure Framework (POC), Redash/ClickHouse (current)

Communication - Slack (daily reports, bots), Jira (DEF project, 1200+ issues)

Requirements


Must have:

• 5+ years in test automation, 2+ years leading a QA team (5+ engineers)
• Deep experience with Linux-based product testing (RPM, systemd, multi-distro matrix)
• Proven track record of dramatically improving test reliability metrics
• Experience building or integrating AI/ML into QA workflows (not theoretical — show us what you shipped)
• Strong Python skills (the entire test framework and tooling is Python)
• CI/CD pipeline architecture experience (Jenkins Pipelines > GitLab CI is upcoming)
  
  
  

Must demonstrate:

• Strategic thinking
• Delegation instinct: you'd build processes that distribute and track ownership
• Data-driven execution: You measure, set targets, and hold teams accountable to metrics
• Strategic initiative: You proactively propose and drive improvements, not wait for problems to be assigned to you
• Automation bias: If a human does it daily (like the nightly report), it should be automated — period
