Role
At StarCompliance, we build software that supports critical compliance needs for global clients. AI is now a core capability within our platform, embedded directly into our products and services.
We are looking for an experienced AI Quality Engineering Lead to drive modern, automation-first quality engineering across our global engineering organisation. This highly technical leadership role will focus on AI-assisted testing, agentic engineering, automation strategy, performance validation, and release confidence across cloud-native and legacy platforms.
This is not a traditional QA management position. You will partner closely with Engineering, Architecture, DevOps, Product, and Release Management teams to embed quality throughout the software development lifecycle and enable scalable, continuous delivery.
How We Think About AI
At StarCompliance, AI is a core part of how we build and operate modern SaaS platforms. We expect our engineers to:
- Use AI-assisted engineering tools in daily workflows.
- Apply AI to improve development speed, automation, operational insight, and engineering quality.
- Ensure AI-generated outputs remain secure, compliant, auditable, and reliable.
