📍 Lucknow 🏷️ Qa & Testing 💰 ₹152,000 / month

About the Role

Vibhuti Khand in Lucknow's Gomti Nagar area has a Lead QA Lead opening, full time, on site, with a testing team responsible for product quality across multiple releases. Ten years of experience is the expectation, and this lead role carries real strategic authority over test coverage decisions.

A Day in This Job

The work covers designing and executing test cases, identifying and reporting software defects, verifying fixes before release, and collaborating with developers to improve product quality. A lead here sets test strategy for the whole team, deciding what depth of coverage a release actually needs given the timeline.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Set test strategy and coverage priorities
  • Coordinate test execution across the team
  • Identify and report software defects
  • Mentor other testers on the team

Qualifications

A bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field is expected, along with an ISTQB or equivalent testing certification and proven hands-on experience with test case design, defect tracking, and automation tooling.

Skills That Matter

  • Test planning at a strategic level
  • Team coordination
  • Automation frameworks
  • Defect tracking

Good to Have

Experience setting testing strategy for a genuinely complex product, familiarity with multiple automation frameworks, and any background where a coverage decision had to be revisited under real time pressure.

Why This Role

Gomti Nagar has become one of Lucknow's more established IT and business districts, and this product releases on a cadence that leaves little room for testing strategy mistakes. Naukri Mitra has listed a few QA roles from this employer, and lead testers who've joined recently describe the strategic prioritization, choosing what to test deeply under real time constraints, as the hardest skill this role develops.

The Interview Process

Benefits

  • Health insurance covering the employee and immediate family
  • Paid time off
  • Performance-linked bonuses
  • Relocation assistance and accommodation support for candidates moving to Lucknow
