• UiPath Expertise is Central to This Role • This engagement requires hands-on UiPath experience from day one. The QA Lead will lead a UiPath-based POC, build automation workflows on a UI-only enterprise platform, and coach client resources through tool adoption. • Serve as the primary QA consultant and lead for the engagement, providing strategic guidance and hands-on direction to both 3Pillar and client teams. • Advise client stakeholders on QA best practices, automation strategy, and tooling decisions — translating technical recommendations into clear, business-aligned direction. • Participate in backlog refinement, sprint ceremonies, release planning, and retrospectives. • Ensure QA work is clearly estimated, planned, and aligned with sprint deliverables. • Prepare QA status reports as a way to communicate test progress, test results, risks, and blockers with clarity and anticipation. • Complete the logging, tracking, communication and resolution of defects. • Maintain confidentiality, security and data privacy standards throughout all areas of responsibility. • Own the overall QA strategy across functional, regression, integration, and non-functional testing. • Define and maintain processes and best practices for test design, traceability, defect management, and environment usage. • Establish and monitor quality metrics that guide engineering decisions. • Balance coverage, speed, and maintainability while managing testing-related technical debt. • Design, build, and scale test automation frameworks for UI, API, and end-to-end testing. • Lead hands-on automation development demonstrating technical excellence and best practices. • Select appropriate tools, libraries, and patterns to ensure long-term stability and scalability. • Build, customize, deploy and manage the environments and test automation framework. • Design, implement, and maintain UiPath RPA automation workflows to support UI-driven test automation on enterprise platforms where backend API access is unavailable. • Integrate automation suites into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., smoke tests, regression packs, nightly executions). • Evaluate and introduce automation accelerators, optimizations, and emerging technologies (including AI-assisted testing). • Act as the main QA point of contact for the client, providing strategic recommendations and technical guidance. • Collaborate closely with Business Analysts to translate requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria into actionable test scenarios and automation coverage. • Prepare and run in-person workshops, demos, discovery sessions, and planning sessions in Toronto. • Communicate proactively with Engineering, Product, Business, and UAT stakeholders. • Guide and mentor QA engineers, helping them grow in automation, exploratory testing, and technical thinking. • Partner with Business Analysts to support knowledge transfer, ensure test coverage aligns with documented requirements, and contribute to building internal QA capability within the client team. • Promote knowledge sharing and continuous learning practices.
