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).

How to Write an AI Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Artificial intelligence is now embedded across almost every sector of the UK economy. From fintech and healthcare to retail, defence and climate tech, organisations are competing for AI talent at an unprecedented pace. Yet despite the volume of AI job adverts online, many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Roles are flooded with unsuitable applications, while highly capable AI professionals scroll past adverts that feel vague, inflated or disconnected from reality. In most cases, the issue isn’t a shortage of AI talent — it’s the quality of the job advert. Writing an effective AI job ad requires more care than traditional tech hiring. AI professionals are analytical, sceptical of hype and highly selective about where they apply. A poorly written advert doesn’t just fail to convert — it actively damages your credibility. This guide explains how to write an AI job ad that attracts the right people, filters out mismatches and positions your organisation as a serious employer in the AI space.

Maths for AI Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are a software engineer, data scientist or analyst looking to move into AI or you are a UK undergraduate or postgraduate in computer science, maths, engineering or a related subject applying for AI roles, the maths can feel like the biggest barrier. Job descriptions say “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals” but rarely spell out what that means day to day. The good news is you do not need a full maths degree worth of theory to start applying. For most UK roles like Machine Learning Engineer, AI Engineer, Data Scientist, Applied Scientist, NLP Engineer or Computer Vision Engineer, the maths you actually use again & again is concentrated in a handful of topics: Linear algebra essentials Probability & statistics for uncertainty & evaluation Calculus essentials for gradients & backprop Optimisation basics for training & tuning A small amount of discrete maths for practical reasoning This guide turns vague requirements into a clear checklist, a 6-week learning plan & portfolio projects that prove you can translate maths into working code.

Neurodiversity in AI Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

The AI industry moves quickly, breaks rules & rewards people who see the world differently. That makes it a natural home for many neurodivergent people – including those with ADHD, autism & dyslexia. If you’re neurodivergent & considering a career in artificial intelligence, you might have been told your brain is “too much”, “too scattered” or “too different” for a technical field. In reality, many of the strengths that come with ADHD, autism & dyslexia map beautifully onto AI work – from spotting patterns in data to creative problem-solving & deep focus. This guide is written for AI job seekers in the UK. We’ll explore: What neurodiversity means in an AI context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths match specific AI roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about your neurodivergence during applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer picture of where you might thrive in AI – & how to set yourself up for success.
