Quality Engineering Lead – eCommerce Experiences.

About the Role

We’re looking for someone who notices fragile seams long before customers ever feel them.
You’re the kind of person who hears a new eCommerce idea—whether it’s a checkout enhancement, a personalization experiment, or a major platform change—and immediately starts exploring the edges. Where could this break under real traffic? What hidden dependencies are we assuming? How does this behave when thousands of customers hit it at once on a peak day? For you, quality isn’t a gate at the end; it’s a mindset that shapes how teams build from the very beginning.
As a Quality Engineering Lead, your impact is less about executing tests yourself and more about elevating how entire squads think about quality. You’ll help teams design smarter test strategies, strengthen automation where it gives the most leverage, and build the habits, tooling, and guardrails that keep our customer experience reliable. You’ll work closely with engineers, product managers, and designers to ensure the features we ship are resilient, performant, and ready for the real world—every time.
You’ll start by deeply understanding our commerce architecture, customer journeys, and operational rhythms. From there, you’ll lead quality efforts across squads: designing strategies for complex features, shaping automation approaches, and guiding teams through performance, data, and integration risks. Over time, you’ll influence how we build software at scale—codifying patterns, mentoring engineers, and driving the shift-left practices that make quality a shared responsibility.
This isn’t a traditional “QA signs off at the end” role. Teams own their own quality. Your role is to expand their toolkit, sharpen their instincts, and raise the bar for how we test, how early we test it, and how confidently we can ship. You’re here not just to protect the customer experience—but to make the entire engineering organization better at delivering it.
