[Hiring] QA Lead @Aphex

Role Description

Join our team as a QA Lead, where you will take charge of Aphex's end-to-end regression suite while collaborating closely with Product Managers, Leads, and Engineers to ensure thorough test coverage that meets our acceptance criteria. This is a foundational role with substantial influence; you will establish the QA architecture, choose the right tools, and set standards as you build out your team and oversee our external QA vendor. If you're looking to make a significant impact at a growing construction tech company that is shaping software solutions for major global projects, this could be a great fit.

Responsibilities

• Establish a consistent testing schedule for regression testing to ensure timely and thorough evaluation of the software.
• Maintain this cadence to meet the quality standards set for the team.
• Recruit and select qualified QA team members to establish a skilled internal team.
• Lead the team effectively as it grows, ensuring high standards of quality assurance are maintained.

Qualifications

• Hands-on experience building and maintaining E2E test suites at scale with Playwright.
• Demonstrable experience managing test flake — diagnosing root causes, setting and enforcing flake budgets, keeping suites trusted.
• Experience managing an external QA vendor from the client side (defining scope, directing work, managing transition).
• Experience partnering with Product Managers on acceptance criteria and E2E test specification.
• Experience with CI integration, test parallelisation, environment management, and test reporting.
• Has owned a test suite end-to-end, not just contributed to one.
• Can articulate a point of view on the test pyramid and where E2E fits.
• Strong written communication — async / remote-first, working across timezones.

Benefits

• A high-performing team: Be part of and contribute to a genuinely collaborative and motivated team.
• Genuine development: Ongoing training, learning, and coaching to get better every day.
• A focus on culture: At Aphex, we are focused on making real impact, together, and strive to walk the talk on that every day.
• Growth opportunities: As Aphex scales across new markets, your career can scale with it.
• Annual global offsite: In 2025 our team met for a week in Da Nang, Vietnam - you’ll need to join us to see where we have planned in 2026!
• Annual Philippines team offsite.
