Job Description

Senior QA Automation Leader at Codelitt focusing on certification strategies for complex enterprise platforms. Leading QA automation efforts and collaborating with engineering teams across LATAM.

Responsibilities:

  • Define the written standard for what it means for an environment to be QA-certified.
  • Create a clear pass/fail bar for environment certification across services, integrations, and platform-level workflows.
  • Define what integration coverage means across a distributed service architecture.
  • Create templates for required evidence, test results, service readiness, coverage expectations, and sign-off.
  • Clarify terminology, ownership, and expectations so engineering, QA, and leadership teams are aligned.
  • Assess the current automated acceptance and integration testing landscape across dozens of services.
  • Identify which services already have sufficient automated coverage and which services have gaps.
  • Understand existing test harnesses, Jenkins orchestration, service-level acceptance tests, and team-specific testing approaches.
  • Define how automated tests should be triggered, monitored, reported, and used as certification evidence.
  • Help design a path toward running acceptance and integration tests in a more centralized, repeatable, and reliable way.
  • Work with engineering teams to determine how missing or legacy test automation should be addressed.
  • Define how test tenants, test data, and end-to-end flows should be exercised during certification.
  • Ensure the certification process validates not only individual services, but also meaningful cross-service behavior.
  • Create or guide coverage matrix templates that show which services, workflows, tenants, and integrations are tested.
  • Help identify high-risk integration points and prioritize automation work accordingly.
  • Serve as the technical owner for the QA certification standard.
  • Work closely with QA, engineering, infrastructure, and delivery stakeholders to drive agreement on the certification approach.
  • Help teams understand what artifacts they need to provide and what evidence is required for sign-off.
  • Lead technical discussions around testing gaps, automation feasibility, and certification risk.
  • Support cross-team adoption of the standard without turning the process into unnecessary bureaucracy.
  • Help create a practical path from fragmented testing practices to a unified certification program.
  • Create clear documentation for QA certification workflows, required artifacts, evidence templates, coverage expectations, and escalation paths.
  • Define how missed testing windows, incomplete coverage, or failed certification checks should be handled.
  • Help build the foundation for compliance tracking across services and teams.
  • Support leadership sign-off by making risks, gaps, and readiness visible.
  • Contribute to a repeatable process that reduces manual coordination and gives stakeholders confidence in platform readiness.

Requirements:

  • 7+ years of experience in QA automation, quality engineering, test architecture, SDET leadership, or similar roles.
  • Strong experience defining QA automation strategy for complex software platforms.
  • Experience working with distributed systems, microservices, service-oriented architectures, or large enterprise platforms.
  • Hands-on experience with automated acceptance testing, integration testing, API testing, and CI/CD test execution.
  • Experience with Java and/or Python-based test automation environments.
  • Experience with Jenkins or similar CI/CD orchestration tools.
  • Experience working with custom test harnesses, legacy test frameworks, or mixed testing stacks.
  • Experience creating test coverage matrices, evidence templates, quality gates, and release certification criteria.
  • Experience working across many engineering teams and aligning different groups around a shared standard.
  • Experience with enterprise delivery, platform certification, SAP-adjacent delivery, or large-scale environment validation is a plus.
  • Experience leading QA transformation, test standardization, or automation maturity initiatives is a strong plus.

Benefits:

  • Work from anywhere in LATAM
