Ingeniero Líder Central de QA y Pruebas

Job Description

The energy transition demands reliable, scalable IT solutions. As a Central Quality Assurance & Test Lead Engineer within the Q4X team, you enable Enexis to build quality in from the start rather than inspecting it afterwards. You work across the organization, coach teams, and connect strategy to execution so we deliver value faster without compromising reliability.

You view quality as an integral part of the development process: something to design, build, and own. You lead by example-hands-on where needed, strategic where it has the most impact.

Job Requirements

• Build organization-wide capability rather than acting as a central "quality gatekeeper."
• Define and develop organization-wide Quality & Test Engineering principles.
• Help teams embed built-in quality and shift-left testing.
• Design and support end-to-end quality and testing approaches for software and integrations.
• Enable and scale test automation across teams and domains.
• Introduce and safeguard quality and confidence in CI/CD pipelines so we know when software is ready for release.
• Advise engineers, System Architects, and RTEs on:
  • quality risks and technical debt;
  • test strategies in complex integration landscapes.
• Coach teams on:
  • test automation practices;
  • engineering-driven quality decisions;
  • requirements and acceptance criteria.
• Maintain a helicopter view across multiple teams, identifying gaps, dependencies, and improvement opportunities.
• Roll up your sleeves and work side by side with teams where needed.

You believe in enablement through practice, not extra control layers, and work according to:

• Do it yourself: demonstrate good practice by doing it.
• Do it together: actively collaborate with teams and engineers.
• Enable & scale: help teams take ownership and continuously improve.

Your Profile

• At least 5 years' experience in software engineering, quality engineering, and test automation.
• Experience working across multiple teams or domains in complex environments.
• Proven ability to combine hands-on delivery with strategic oversight.

Test Automation and Tooling

• Extensive experience with modern test automation tools, such as:
  • Playwright;
  • Robot Framework;
  • API and integration testing tools.
• Experience with enterprise or model-based tooling (e.g., Tosca).
• Pragmatic positioning of tooling based on context, architecture, and team maturity.
• Experience integrating test automation into CI/CD pipelines.
• Tooling is a means to support organization-wide goals-not an end in itself.

Methods and Ways of Working

• Experience with Agile, Scrum, and DevOps.
• Familiar with TDD, BDD, and Continuous Delivery.
• Comfortable with shift-left principles and built-in quality.

Nice to Have

• Understanding of data engineering concepts, such as:
  • data pipelines and data integrations;
  • data quality and data validation.

Personal

• Strong communicator and coach; able to influence without formal authority.
• Able to switch between detail and big-picture views.
• Credible, pragmatic, and engineering-driven.
• Curious, analytical, and committed to continuous learning and improvement.
