Job Openings Lead QA Automation Engineer – AI Agentic Systems
About the job Lead QA Automation Engineer – AI Agentic SystemsWe are looking for a highly technical and forward-thinking Lead QA Automation Engineer to drive the transformation from manual testing to scalable automation and AI-powered quality engineering. This role is a strong fit for someone who has deep experience in QA automation and is now actively moving into AI-driven testing and intelligent systems
.
You're not just executing tests, you're building systems that think, adapt, and test autonomously
. This role goes beyond traditional QA. You will lead the evolution of testing infrastructure, building robust automation frameworks while introducing AI-driven testing capabilities and autonomous agents that actively participate in the development lifecycle.
You’ll own quality engineering end-to-end — from automation strategy and CI/CD integration to designing intelligent systems that generate, execute, and optimize tests automatically.
This is a high-impact leadership role with direct influence on engineering efficiency, release quality, and long-term QA strategy.
Location: Tampa, FL (Hybrid – 3 days onsite)
Employment: Full-time
Test Automation & Frameworks
- Design, build, and scale automated test frameworks across web, mobile, API, and backend systems
- Replace manual regression testing with reliable, maintainable automation
