Skills you'll use

What you'll do

• Technical Leadership & Architecture
• Test Strategy Ownership: Define and own the end-to-end test automation strategy across the engagement — covering scope, framework design, risk-based test coverage, and quality gates at each delivery milestone.
• Framework Governance: Architect, govern, and continuously improve reusable automation frameworks leveraging UiPath Test Suite / Test Cloud (Test Manager, Test Automation activities, + REFramework). Set non-negotiable standards for modularity, maintainability, and scalability.
• Technical Escalation: Act as the final technical escalation point for the team — resolving complex defects, integration failures, tool-chain issues, and architectural blockers that Testing Engineers cannot resolve independently.
• Innovation & Platform Awareness: Stay current with UiPath platform developments — particularly AI-powered testing, Agentic Automation, and UiPath Test Cloud capabilities — and translate these into improved delivery approaches for clients.
• Delivery & Quality Management
• End-to-End Delivery Ownership: Manage the full test lifecycle from planning through execution, defect management, and technical sign-off — ensuring quality outcomes are delivered on time, within scope, and aligned with banking regulatory requirements.
• Risk & Dependency Management: Proactively identify testing risks, scope creep, and delivery blockers. Implement mitigation plans before issues escalate to client leadership, maintaining a clear risk register throughout the engagement.
• Banking Domain Quality: Apply a working understanding of core banking workflows — payments, account management, lending, GL, and regulatory reporting — to ensure test coverage reflects real business risk, not just functional requirements.
• Metrics & Reporting: Define and track testing KPIs (coverage, defect escape rate, automation ROI, cycle time) and present clear, data-driven quality status to client stakeholders at regular cadences.

Who can apply

• Requirement Translation: Partner with Functional Business Analysts and client SMEs to ensure business requirements and banking process logic are fully and accurately reflected in test scenarios, acceptance criteria, and traceability matrices.
• Development: Support in the Design, development, testing, and deployment of end-to-end Test Automation workflows leveraging UiPath Test Suite / Test Cloud (Test Manager, Test Automation, Studio).
• QA: Conduct code reviews, enforce coding standards and maintain design specifications, test reports, and runbooks
• Primary Technical Client Point of Contact: Serve as the lead technical representative in client meetings — translating complex testing outcomes, risks, and architectural decisions into language accessible to non-technical banking stakeholders and programme leadership.
• Delivery Coordination: Manage delivery across distributed teams, ensuring alignment on priorities, progress, and quality standards between onsite and offshore engineers.
• Mentorship & Coaching: Line-manage, coach, and develop L1–L3 Testing engineers. Support performance evaluations and knowledge transfer across the team.
• Capability Building: Champion internal knowledge sharing — running technical workshops, code review sessions, and lessons-learned reviews to continuously raise the bar for the team.
• Experience: 8–12 years of total IT experience, with a minimum of 3+ years in a technical lead or test automation lead role managing delivery teams on enterprise engagements.
