AQA Lead

Build quality at scale, not just tests

Softsich is a young and ambitious international product tech company that develops scalable B2B digital platforms. We’re looking for an experienced AQA Lead who will take ownership of automated quality assurance processes and help the team build reliable, maintainable, and scalable test solutions.

In this role, you’ll combine hands-on automation expertise with team leadership — defining QA strategy, shaping test architecture, and guiding AQA engineers toward consistent, high-quality results.

Your key responsibilities will include:

– Leading the AQA team: planning, organizing, motivating, and controlling the work of AQA engineers.
– Defining and evolving the test automation strategy and architecture.
– Writing and maintaining automated tests for Web and API layers.
– Reviewing merge requests and ensuring high code and test quality standards.
– Collaborating closely with developers, product managers, and other stakeholders.
– Participating in Scrum ceremonies (2-week sprints) and release planning.
– Continuously improving QA processes, tools, and best practices.

It’s a match if you have:

– Proven experience as a Lead AQA / QA Automation Lead.
– Strong hands-on experience with Web and API test automation (must-have).
– Practical expertise with Playwright + TypeScript (or readiness to work deeply with this stack).
– Experience designing test frameworks and making architectural QA decisions.
– Ownership mindset and readiness to take responsibility for overall product quality.

Nice to have:

– Knowledge of Java.
– Experience working with high-load or data-intensive systems.
– Familiarity with tools such as ESLint, Prettier, Faker.js, Sharp, or Tesseract.
– Experience working with CI pipelines (tests running via GitLab Actions).

What we offer:

– Flexible schedule and remote format or offices in Warsaw/Kyiv — you choose.
– 24 paid vacation days, sick leaves, and health insurance (UA-based, other locations in progress).
– A supportive, friendly team where knowledge-sharing is part of the culture.
– Coverage for professional events and learning.
– Birthday greetings, team buildings, and warm human connection beyond work.
– Zero joules of energy to the aggressor state, its affiliated businesses, or partners.
