Deskripsi pekerjaan LEAD QA CONSULTANT (AUTOMATION) Pt. Jaya Agung Teknologi

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Own test automation strategy end-to-end: Take accountability for strategy and outcomes, shaping how automation testing and CI work across the organization rather than just executing within it.

Cross-platform test automation: Write and maintain automated tests for flows spanning multiple services or systems across web (desktop), API, and mobile (native) platforms.

Test data & environment management: Define isolated, resettable test data strategies seeded per test using masked or synthetic data rather than production records.

Distributed systems validation: Test critical failure modes (idempotency, out-of-order events, eventual consistency, concurrency) and partner with Engineering/DevOps on fault-injection scenarios.

Deep verification & quality assurance: Verify state through logs, traces, metrics, and direct database queries; validate functionality, performance, reliability, and legacy compatibility.

CI integration & release gates: Integrate test suites into CI as reliable, fast release gates that produce clear go/no-go signals.

Triage & root-cause analysis: Lead defect triage on production issues, converting findings into regression tests and preventative measures across teams.

SDLC & governance standards: Enforce QA and change management standards, including documentation, test/implementation plans, and recovery procedures.

• Documentation & reporting: Maintain comprehensive test plans, scripts, integration plans, and user acceptance reports.
• Mentorship & continuous improvement: Mentor QA engineers, advocate for best practices, and refine testing methodologies continuously.
• Stakeholder communication: Communicate quality status and technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
