Role Overview

The Test Lead will oversee the planning, execution, and delivery of testing activities for Drupal-based web applications.

Collaboration & Governance

  • Strong knowledge of test design techniques, defect management, and test reporting.
  • Familiarity with web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript).

Desirable

  • Hands-on experience with automated testing tools
  • Web Accessibility testing to WCAG standards
  • Experience in performance and load testing (e.g., JMeter, Locust).

Soft Skills

  • Strong leadership and mentoring abilities.
  • Excellent communication skills to work with both technical and business teams.

  • Ability to manage competing priorities and deliver to tight deadlines.
