Job Description

We are in need of QA Lead.

Overview
We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Quality Engineer with expertise in AWS, artificial intelligence (AI), resiliency, and performance testing. The ideal candidate will possess a strong background in quality assurance, a passion for cutting-edge technology, and the ability to ensure our systems are robust, resilient, and perform optimally under all conditions. This role will require close collaboration with development, operations, and product teams to deliver high-quality solutions that meet our business objectives.

Key Responsibilities:
* Quality Assurance and Testing
* Develop and execute comprehensive test plans, test cases, and test scripts for AWS-based applications and AI-driven solutions.
* Ensure all functional, integration, system, and regression testing is completed thoroughly and efficiently.
* Implement automated testing frameworks and tools to improve testing efficiency and coverage.
* Collaborate with developers to identify, reproduce, and resolve defects.
* Performance Testing
* Design and implement performance testing strategies to validate the scalability, reliability, and performance of our applications.
* Use performance testing tools (e.g., JMeter, LoadRunner, Gatling) to simulate user load and identify performance bottlenecks.
* Analyze performance test results and provide detailed feedback and recommendations for improvement.
* Work with development and operations teams to optimize application performance and ensure it meets our standards and SLAs.
* Resiliency Testing
* Develop and execute resiliency testing plans to ensure our applications can withstand and recover from unexpected failures and disruptions.
* Implement chaos engineering principles and tools (e.g., Chaos Monkey, Gremlin) to test the robustness of our systems.
* Collaborate with development and operations teams to identify vulnerabilities and implement strategies to improve system resiliency.
* Artificial Intelligence
* Develop and execute testing strategies for AI and machine learning models to ensure their accuracy, reliability, and robustness.
* Collaborate with data scientists and AI engineers to validate model performance and ensure they meet business requirements.
* Implement monitoring and validation techniques to ensure AI models continue to perform well in production environments.
* Continuous Improvement
* Continuously evaluate and improve our testing processes, tools, and methodologies to ensure high standards of quality and efficiency.
* Stay updated with industry trends, best practices, and emerging technologies in quality engineering, AI, and cloud computing.
* Provide mentorship and guidance to junior quality engineers and contribute to the overall growth and development of the QA team.

Qualifications:
* Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
* At least 5 years of experience in quality assurance and performance testing.
* Strong expertise in AWS services and cloud-based applications.
* Experience with AI and machine learning testing.
* Proficiency in automated testing tools and frameworks (e.g., Selenium, JUnit, TestNG).
* Experience with performance testing tools (e.g., JMeter, LoadRunner, Gatling).
* Understanding of chaos engineering principles and tools (e.g., Chaos Monkey, Gremlin).
* Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
* Ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced, agile environment.
* Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality.

Preferred Skills:
* Advanced certifications in AWS and related technologies.
* Experience with AI frameworks and libraries (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch).
* Knowledge of containerization and orchestration tools (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
* Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and tools (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI).
* Experience with monitoring and logging tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack).

Why Data Science Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Data science once meant advanced statistics, machine learning models and coding in Python or R. In the UK today, it has become one of the most in-demand professions across sectors — from healthcare to finance, retail to government. But as the field matures, employers now expect more than technical modelling skills. Modern data science is multidisciplinary. It requires not just coding and algorithms, but also legal knowledge, ethical reasoning, psychological insight, linguistic clarity and human-centred design. Data scientists are expected to interpret, communicate and apply data responsibly, with awareness of law, human behaviour and accessibility. In this article, we’ll explore why data science careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these five disciplines intersect with data science, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to succeed in this transformed field.

Data Science Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Data Science Department

Data science is one of the most in-demand, dynamic, and multidisciplinary areas in the UK tech and business landscape. Organisations from finance, retail, health, government, and beyond are using data to drive decisions, automate processes, personalise services, predict trends, detect fraud, and more. To do that well, companies don’t just need good data scientists; they need teams with clearly defined roles, responsibilities, workflows, collaboration, and governance. If you're aiming for a role in data science or recruiting for one, understanding the structure of a data science department—and who does what—can make all the difference. This article breaks down the key roles, how they interact across the lifecycle of a data science project, what skills and qualifications are typical in the UK, expected salary ranges, challenges, trends, and how to build or grow an effective team.

Why the UK Could Be the World’s Next Data Science Jobs Hub

Data science is arguably the most transformative technological field of the 21st century. From powering artificial intelligence algorithms to enabling complex business decisions, data science is essential across sectors. As organisations leverage data more rapidly—from retailers predicting customer behaviour to health providers diagnosing conditions—demand for proficiency in data science continues to surge. The United Kingdom is particularly well-positioned to become a global data science jobs hub. With world-class universities, a strong tech sector, growing AI infrastructure, and supportive policy environments, the UK is poised for growth. This article delves into why the UK could emerge as a leading destination for data science careers, explores the job market’s current state, outlines future opportunities, highlights challenges, and charts what must happen to realise this vision.
