This high-impact individual contributor role involves owning the exploratory testing strategy, shaping core QE tooling decisions, and influencing the QE roadmap and release readiness.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement a structured exploratory testing framework using Session-Based Test Management (SBTM), risk-based heuristics, and charter-driven exploration.
  • Work across product teams prioritized by risk signals such as defect escape rate, release cadence, test coverage gaps, and business criticality.
  • Influence QE roadmap planning, Go/No-Go release decisions, and sprint planning.
  • Contribute to embedding quality throughout the SDLC and achieving FY27 QE goals.
  • Champion the shift from heavy end-to-end testing towards a healthier testing pyramid with stronger integration and unit-level exploratory techniques.
  • Systematically identify and document critical gaps in test coverage, prioritizing by risk and business impact.
  • Evaluate and pilot AI-assisted exploratory testing tools.
  • Mentor Junior QE members and offshore SDETs.
  • Uplift exploratory testing skills across the QE organization through workshops, pairing sessions, and documentation.
  • Partner with QE Managers, Dev leads, and Product to ensure exploratory findings drive quality improvements.

Requirements

  • 8+ years in Quality Engineering, SDET, or Software Testing roles
  • Deep expertise in structured exploratory testing (SBTM, heuristics, risk-based test design, charter creation)
  • Microservices testing experience
  • A good understanding of CI/CD processes
  • Experience testing both SaaS and on-premises products
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills to articulate risk and quality trade-offs to technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • eDiscovery, legal tech, or data processing domain experience is desired
