Lead QA Automation EngineerMetAntz is connecting top 1% talents with exciting global opportunities.About the OpportunityMetAntz is partnering with a fast-scaling enterprise AI product company to hire a Lead QA Automation Engineer. This is a hands-on leadership role at the intersection of test engineering and data. You will own the automation strategy for a platform that ingests high-volume data and surfaces data-science-driven outcomes, and you will be responsible for making sure both the application and the intelligence it produces are provably correct at scale.It's a strong fit for someone who thinks like an engineer, has led a small team, and is comfortable testing not just UIs and APIs but the correctness of ETL pipelines and machine-learning model outputs.Why Join?
- Test what most QA engineers never touch. Beyond UIs and APIs, you'll be validating data pipelines and the correctness of data-science outcomes — genuinely hard problems where quality has real business consequences.
- Real scale. Work on a platform that ingests and processes very large volumes of data, where performance and correctness at scale are first-class engineering concerns, not afterthoughts.
- Own the strategy. This isn't a ticket-closing role. You define the automation approach, build the frameworks, and set the quality bar for the whole team.
- Lead and grow others. Mentor QA and SDET engineers and shape how the team works - with room to grow into broader engineering leadership.
- Modern stack, done well. Docker, Kubernetes, cloud (GCP, Azure), CI/CD-native testing, and best-in-class tooling - the environment supports doing test engineering the right way.
- High-visibility impact. You'll join a fast-scaling enterprise AI product company at a stage where your work directly shapes product reliability and customer trust.
- Competitive compensation with a Series C, $110m+ funded company.What You will Do
- Define and lead the QA automation strategy across the platform, and build scalable, maintainable automation frameworks from the ground up.
- Design complex, high-coverage test suites spanning UI, API, and data layers.
- Drive performance and load testing, establish benchmarks, and identify bottlenecks before they reach production.
- Integrate automated testing deeply into CI/CD so quality gates run continuously rather than at the end.
- Test high-volume, data-intensive applications - validating data as it moves through ingestion, transformation, and warehousing.
- Test data-science outcomes - validate model inputs, outputs, and behaviour, and build repeatable ways to catch regressions in data-science-driven results.
- Mentor and level up QA and SDET engineers, set standards, and raise the overall quality bar for the team.Must-Have Skills
- QA automation & test engineering: Strong automation background, API testing, and rigorous test design.
- CI/CD, containers & cloud: Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud-based testing (GCP or Azure preferred).
- Data & ML testing: ETL testing, data-science/ML model testing, and some data-warehouse testing experience.
- Tooling & scripting: Selenium, Python scripting, and Postman.
- Leadership: Experience leading small QA/SDET teams.Nice-to-Have Skills
- Playwright, Cypress
- RestAssured
- JMeter and/or K6Experience
- 8+ years of QA automation/SDET experience preferred.
