01Overview
Help with and implement our QA Architectural Artifacts
All testing systems, their feedback loops and mechanisms, logging, reporting and interconnectivity
Process artifacts that detail how, where and why quality controls and test mechanisms exist across the entire SDLC
Implementation level architecture for good, scalable and maintainable testing strategies across disparate use cases (Web, Mobile, Data Engineering, AI etc)
Contribute to and maintain our org wide Architecture Decision Records
Support the delivery and maintenance of our QA Engineering Policies, Procedures and Standards
CI/CD practices, environment configuration, feedback loops etc
Backend tooling, frameworks, their application, quality gating and measurement
Technology stack/services consultancy and selection in accordance with technical and quality requirements (scalability, performance, security, compliance)
Support our QA Operational Practices
Drive e Commerce automation projects
Integration, Acceptance, Performance, Security level testing platforms
Govern, train and evangelize good tests versus bad tests at each testing level
Drive best in class QA strategies
Our customers need to love what we do for them
Work across disciplines and with other Principal Engineers to evangelize for the needs of the Quality Automation discipline
Knowledge transfer, training, mentoring of QA practices across the engineering org
