About the Role

Own the quality of our LAP product line across LOS and LMS. You will lead the testing team, set the automation direction, and decide when a release is fit for Production.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead, coach and appraise Senior and Junior testers; plan capacity against sprint and release commitments.

• Own sprint test delivery and escalate risks and dependencies early to delivery and business leadership.

• Design the master regression automation strategy (UI, API, DB) and embed it in CI/CD pipelines.

• Chair defect triage with Product, Development and Business; drive root-cause analysis and prevention.

• Act as primary gatekeeper for Production deployments: own go/no-go, release readiness and post-deployment verification.

• Define and publish QA metrics: defect leakage, test coverage and defect density.

• Set test governance and standards for audit-readiness on RBI-regulated flows.

Must-Haves

• 8+ years in QA, 3+ years leading teams, in Indian lending (LAP preferred)

• Hands-on exposure to Finone, Finnaxia, Nucleus, Pennant, Lentra or similar LOS/LMS

• Strong grasp of the LAP lifecycle, NACH/e-Mandate flows and RBI digital lending norms

• Proven automation strategy and CI/CD experience

Good-to-Haves

Jenkins/GitLab, Jira/Confluence, SQL, Selenium/RestAssured/Playwright/Cypress.

Scope Boundary

Does not own day-to-day case execution or scenario design; that sits with the team.
