We are currently looking for a SQA Automation Team Lead to join our team and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our company.
We're looking for a hands-on automation leader to take our retail software platforms from manual testing to a fast, reliable, AI-accelerated automation practice. This person will do three things exceptionally well:
Convert our existing manual test cases into robust, maintainable automation across web and API.
Lead the automation practice — setting standards, mentoring the QA team, and serving as the technical authority (without direct people-management responsibility).
Improve the testing process continuously, using AI tools to reduce manual effort, expand coverage, and accelerate releases.
If you've personally migrated a manual test suite into automation, raised the bar for a QA team, and used AI to make testing genuinely faster — this role is built for you.
This position follows a hybrid work schedule and is based at our Retail Pro office in Folsom, California.
Role Summary (What You'll Own):
Convert manual test cases into automation (the core of the job)
Take documented manual test cases, business requirements, and technical specs and turn them into reliable, maintainable automated coverage.
Design, build, and maintain the automated test framework for web and API testing.
Develop and maintain functional, regression, and API test suites.
Validate test data through database queries and backend verification.
Troubleshoot flaky tests and continuously improve reliability and execution performance.
Lead the automation practice
Set automation standards and best practices, and drive consistency across the QA team.
Mentor automation engineers and QA analysts; be the go-to technical expert for automation.
Deliver documentation and training on tools, framework usage, and test design.
Participate in sprint planning, development meetings, and defect triage.
Improve the process with AI
Apply AI tools to accelerate and strengthen the QA process — e.g., AI-assisted test-case authoring, automated script generation, self-healing tests, and coverage analysis.
Identify bottlenecks in the current testing workflow and drive measurable improvements in speed, coverage, and quality.
Champion an AI-first mindset within the SQA team and share what works.
Integrate and collaborate
Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines and align automation with build and release workflows.
Support cross-browser testing, parallel execution, and environment configuration.
Partner with Development, Product, and Support to investigate defects and validate fixes.
Communicate automation status, risks, and progress to SQA management.
Assist with manual testing when needed to support release timelines.
