Full Job Description
We9re looking for a hands-on QA Lead to own end-to-end quality strategies for our customer-facing contact center and self-service technologies - including speech applications, IVRs, chat bots, and other customer service tools. You9ll serve as the quality gatekeeper across functional, SIT, E2E, UAT, regression, and go-live activities, while remaining comfortable stepping in as a hands-on contributor - leading by example, not just by direction.

The ideal candidate has worked within the call center ecosystem, understands customer service operations end-to-end, and brings 8 - 10 years of experience leading QA efforts and testing teams. Experience with AWS is required and Salesforce is a plus.
Key Responsibilities
QA Strategy & Leadership
  • Be the primary quality advisor embedded in design, planning, and delivery-surface risks early, not late
  • Lead and mentor the QA team while staying hands-on in complex Contact Center and IVR testing scenarios
  • Own QA program delivery end-to-end: resource planning, test strategy, defect triage, environment coordination, and release readiness
  • Define and track Contact Center-specific quality KPIs-test coverage for call flows, automation ROI, first-call resolution testing, and cycle time
  • Design test strategies for multi-channel interactions (voice, chat, SMS), agent workflows, and failover scenarios
  • Lead go-live readiness assessments and hypercare support-triage production issues quickly and maintain a known issues log
  • Report quality status to steering committees and program reviews, framing risks in business impact (SLA, customer satisfaction, call abandonment)
  • Partner early with Product and Engineering so quality ownership spreads across the organization, not just QA
  • Apply sampling strategies, accuracy benchmarking, and prompt regression testing to validate LLM-powered and Agentic AI features; leverage GenAI tools to accelerate test case generation, documentation, and overall QA productivity
Test Design & Execution
  • Author detailed, scenario-based test cases and traceability matrices covering functional, integration, regression, and UAT cycles
  • Write thorough negative, boundary, and edge-case scenarios across IVR, chat bot, and customer service workflows - not just happy-path coverage
  • Lead exploratory testing for complex, ambiguous workflows, applying risk-based judgment to prioritize coverage where business impact is highest
  • Validate speech application (IVR) design - call flows, DTMF and speech recognition, routing logic, self-service menus, authentication, and error/timeout branches
  • Validate chat bot and conversational AI behavior - intent recognition, escalation/handoff to live agents, knowledge grounding, and response accuracy
  • Own end-to-end testing of integration layers - API request/response validation, middleware transformations, screen pops, and data sync across connected systems
  • Lead SIT, E2E, UAT, regression, and go-live testing activities across release cycles
  • Facilitate UAT readiness sessions with business stakeholders, supporting non-technical users and driving structured sign-off
  • Own the full defect lifecycle - creation, triage, prioritization, SLA tracking, root cause tagging, and trend analysis
  • Produce defect health reports and quality metrics summaries for leadership and stakeholders
Required Qualifications
  • 8-10 years of hands on experience leading QA or testing teams
  • Hands-on experience testing speech applications (IVRs), chat bots, and other customer service tools
  • Experience working within the call center/contact center ecosystem, with a solid understanding of customer service operations
  • Demonstrated ability to lead QA across functional, integration, regression, UAT, and go-live testing cycles
  • Experience building or scaling a QA program, including test strategy, governance, and reporting
  • Strong communication skills - able to represent QA status and risk to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with AWS, particularly Amazon Connect (IVR, Lex, Contact Flows, Lambda, Contact Lens)
  • Experience with Five9, Genesys, Nuance, other telephony technologies being migrated into AWS or Service Cloud Voice
  • Experience with Salesforce, particularly Service Cloud and Service Cloud Voice
  • Exposure to conversational AI / GenAI validation - accuracy, hallucination checks, prompt/response quality, guardrails
  • Familiarity with telephony fundamentals - ACD/routing, PSTN/toll-free/DID mapping, call recording and transcription
Tools & Technical Skills
  • Test Management & Planning - Jira/Xray, Azure DevOps, Zephyr Scale, TestRail, or qTest
  • Defect Tracking & Governance -Jira for end-to-end defect lifecycle management
  • CI/CD & DevOps-Aware Testing -Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or Azure DevOps; Git-based version control (GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket)
  • Test Automation & Performance Testing -UI automation for functional/regression coverage; API testing (Postman, REST Assured, or SoapUI); performance/load testing tools
  • Speech / IVR Testing -experience with tools such as Empirix Hammer or Cyara a plus
  • GenAI & Productivity Tools -Claude, Copilot, or ChatGPT for test case generation, test data creation, and QA documentation
  • Reporting & Collaboration - Confluence, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Drive, and SharePoint
Soft Skills & QA Leadership
  • Trusted Advisor Presence - Earns client confidence through expertise, transparency, and consistent delivery; comfortable challenging scope and requirements constructively when testability or clarity is lacking
  • Radical Ownership - Takes full accountability for quality outcomes across the program; doesn9t wait to be told what to test next and never passes the problem to someone else
  • Hands-On Leadership - Leads by doing; equally comfortable mentoring junior team members and personally drafting and executing test cases on the same day
  • Proactive Risk Management - Anticipates quality risks, raises blockers early, and brings solutions - not just problems - to every stakeholder conversation
  • Composed Under Pressure - Navigates defect escalations, client concerns, and delivery conflicts with professionalism, sound judgment, and a calm, steady presence
  • Intellectually Curious - Invests time to deeply understand the business process being tested, not just the technical specification; asks the right questions before writing the first test case
  • Comfortable with Ambiguity - Makes risk-based quality decisions and writes meaningful test cases even when requirements are incomplete or evolving
  • Finisher Mentality - Drives every test cycle through to formal sign-off and release; not someone who starts strong and disengages before the finish line
  • Clear Communicator - Articulates QA status, risks, and recommendations clearly and confidently to both technical teams and non-technical business stakeholders
  • Collaborative Coach - Develops junior QA team members, supports client UAT efforts, and fosters a quality-first culture across the entire program team
