Role

We’re looking for a Lead QA Engineer to own quality across our digital fashion platform. You’ll define testing strategy end to end, covering 3D content, AI-driven features, and live e-commerce flows. This is a hands-on role that blends strong manual testing instincts with pragmatic, scalable automation

Responsibilities:

• Own and drive the overall QA strategy for a complex 3D and AI-powered platform.
• Define test approaches across rendering, performance, and ML-driven user journeys.
• Design, build, and maintain automated test coverage where it delivers the most value, integrated into CI/CD pipelines.
• Lead regression testing, balancing automation with high-quality manual validation.
• Test high-performance web experiences across devices, ensuring visual and functional consistency.
• Conduct deep exploratory testing to uncover edge cases and failure modes automation will not catch.
• Work closely with engineering and product to improve testability, release confidence, and overall quality.
• Integrate performance and security testing into the release process.

Requirements:

• 5+ years in QA, including experience owning or leading quality initiatives.
• Strong experience designing QA strategy for complex products, not just executing test cases.
• Solid automation experience and comfort working with code, without being a pure SDET role.
• Experience testing visually complex or 3D applications (WebGL, Unity, Unreal, or similar).
• Excellent manual testing skills, especially exploratory testing and bug reproduction.
• Strong visual judgement for spotting rendering, lighting, alignment, and animation issues.
• Experience with modern automation tools such as Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium, plus performance testing tools.
• Proven ability to take ownership of complex technical problems and deliver end to end.
