We are looking for an experienced QA Team Lead to own quality across a complex, multi-technology product suite. You will bridge the gap between hands-on technical testing and team leadership — driving test strategy, building out automated coverage, and coaching a team of QA engineers to raise the quality bar across every release. This role sits at the intersection of C++, .NET, Java, and modern web technologies, requiring broad technical depth and strong organizational skills.

• Define and own the overall QA strategy for manual and automated testing across all product areas.
• Lead, mentor, and grow a team of QA engineers, conducting regular 1:1s, code/test reviews, and performance feedback.
• Collaborate with engineering managers, product owners, and developers to embed quality at every stage of the SDLC.
• Prioritize the team's workload and manage QA effort across concurrent feature streams and bug-fix cycles.
• Report on quality metrics, test coverage trends, and automation ROI to engineering leadership.

• Architect, build, and maintain automated test suites covering UI and backend APIs across C++, .NET, Java, and web stacks.
• Select and champion appropriate automation frameworks (e.g. Selenium/Playwright for UI; RestAssured, Postman/Newman, or equivalent for APIs; GoogleTest/Catch2 for C++ components; NUnit/xUnit for .NET).
• Increase automation coverage continuously — identifying gaps, writing new suites, and refactoring brittle tests.
• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines to provide fast, reliable feedback on every build.
• Define standards for test data management, environment configuration, and automation best practices.

• Lead and execute structured manual testing of UI features, ensuring functional correctness and consistent user experience.
• Verify application behavior against relevant system, application, and audit logs; esc
• Perform exploratory, regression, and edge-case testing across new and existing features.
• Triage incoming defects, reproduce consistently, and validate fixes prior to release.

• Create, review, and maintain comprehensive test cases and test suites in the team's test management tool.
• Ensure test cases are kept up to date as requirements and implementations evolve.
• Review test coverage against acceptance criteria and flag gaps to product and engineering stakeholders.
• Define and enforce consistent test case naming conventions, traceability, and documentation standards.
• 5+ years of QA experience, with at least 1–2 years in a lead or senior role.
• Proven track record designing and delivering automation frameworks for both UI and API testing.
• Strong proficiency in at least two of C++, .NET/C#, Java for writing and reviewing test code.
• Experience testing web front ends with modern automation tools (Selenium or similar).
• Solid API testing experience including REST endpoint validation, contract testing, and schema verification.
• Confident log analysis skills — reading application, system, and structured logs to diagnose defects.
• Experience maintaining and improving test cases in a test management tool (e.g. Xray).
• Excellent communication skills — able to present quality status clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Exposure to performance, load, or security testing disciplines.
• Familiarity with behavior-driven development (BDD) and tooling such as Cucumber.
• Experience working in regulated or safety-critical software environments.
• Knowledge of containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) for test environment management.
• Experience with FIX protocol or trading systems

• A senior, high-impact role with genuine influence over engineering quality practices.
• A collaborative, multi-disciplinary engineering team building complex, real-world software.
• Competitive salary and discretionary bonus reviewed annually.
• Budget for professional development, certifications, and conference attendance.
