We're looking for a QA Automation Lead to join us at Telia Lithuania. I'm Tadas Vaskela, Head of Enterprise Delivery, and I'm searching for someone who wants to help shape the future of test automation at Telia. We are looking for a hands-on QA Automation Lead who will define how test automation is built and scaled across Telia Lithuania. You will set the technical direction, establish common Playwright-based practices, and work directly with teams to build frameworks, reusable components and automated tests. This is not a people-management role. It is a technical leadership position for someone who enjoys coding, solving automation challenges and influencing engineering practices across multiple teams. What you’ll do: Define and continuously improve Telia's test automation strategy, standards, and governance. Lead the adoption of Playwright-based automation frameworks and reusable testing practices across teams. Actively contribute to automation development by building proof-of-concepts, reusable components, framework improvements, and automated test suites. Expand regression automation coverage and support teams in identifying critical business journeys suitable for automation. Help integrate automated testing into CI/CD pipelines and modern software delivery practices. Coach and support QA engineers and developers through code reviews, pair programming, troubleshooting, and practical implementation guidance. Define and track automation and quality metrics, identify bottlenecks, and drive continuous improvements. You will have the opportunity to shape how automation is designed and implemented across the organization, rather than simply maintaining an established framework. What will help you thrive in this role: You combine strong technical expertise with leadership and coaching skills. You're comfortable both defining direction and rolling up your sleeves to solve technical challenges. Several years of hands-on experience designing and developing automated tests in complex enterprise environments. Strong practical expertise in Playwright and modern automation frameworks. Experience testing web applications, APIs, integrations, and complex business processes. Ability to write maintainable automation code and serve as a technical authority for automation-related decisions. Proven experience building automation solutions rather than only managing testing activities or teams. Strong coding skills in TypeScript/JavaScript and experience integrating automated testing into CI/CD pipelines. Strong understanding of automation architecture, test design, maintainability, and scalability. Ability to influence and coach without direct authority. Strong communication and stakeholder management skills. Fluency in English. Our tech stack: Playwright, TypeScript, GitHub, GitHub Actions, CI/CD, Jira. Nice to have Experience building enterprise-wide automation platforms or frameworks. Experience introducing automation practices across multiple teams or domains. Knowledge of telecom, CRM, ERP, self-service, or customer-facing digital platforms. ISTQB certifications or similar quality-related qualifications. Experience with GitHub Copilot, AI-assisted testing, Agentic AI, or other modern engineering productivity tools. Experience working in Agile and SAFe environments.
