TEKsystems is seeking a QA Lead who can manage and guide all aspects of the QA and test management lifecycle. This role is not about building new processes from scratch; instead, it focuses on teaching, enforcing, and operationalizing existing QA processes, ensuring teams follow established standards, timelines, and best practices. The ideal candidate is highly organized, processoriented, and experienced in hands-on QA leadership within both manual and automated testing environments. Key Responsibilities: Test Planning & Execution * Partner with business stakeholders and product owners to define test cases, ensuring full coverage of business and functional requirements. * Convert test cases into a comprehensive test plan and test schedule. * Track test execution across teams, ensuring testing stays on schedule. * Serve as the primary point of contact for all testers; follow up, unblock, and coordinate to maintain progress. Test Data & Environment Coordination * Understand the test data requirements needed to execute each test case. * Ensure appropriate data is sourced or ETL'd into test environments. * Close existing organizational gaps by ensuring teams understand how test data ties into the testing process. Defect Management * Own and manage all defects throughout the testing lifecycle. * Partner closely with development teams, product owners, and business SMEs to triage, track, and drive resolution. * Utilize Azure DevOps for test management, tracking, and status reporting. Process Ownership & Leadership * Reinforce existing QA processes and make sure all practice areas adhere to them. * Provide guidance, clarification, and standardization across teams. * Support ongoing QA automation efforts (tracking progress-not writing scripts day-to-day). Preferred Required Skills & Experience * Strong background in QA leadership, test planning, and test lifecycle management. * Hands-on experience writing automated test cases and working collaboratively with automation engineers. * Familiarity with automation frameworks such as: * Selenium * Cucumber / BDD ("Given/When/Then") * Test suites and regression frameworks * Experience with Azure DevOps for test management. * Experience with Jira or similar tracking tools. * Ability to manage multiple testers, keep test cycles on schedule, and clearly communicate status. * Strong understanding of test data requirements, ETL processes, and test environment readiness.
