The Role: We're looking for a QA lead to own quality across our AI agent platform and run a distributed testing team. You'll define what "ready to ship" looks like, build the test strategies and processes from the ground up, and be the person in SF who keeps quality on track as the team scales. This is a hands-on QA role. You'll write test plans, execute testing, and manage a team of offshore QA testers. You'll work closely with engineering and product to understand what's being built, identify where things can break, and make sure nothing ships until it's been thoroughly validated. If you've run QA for a fast-moving product team and know how to keep quality high without slowing everything down, this is your role. What You'll Work OnA few examples of what this role looks like day-to-day: Test strategy and planning: Defining test plans, acceptance criteria, and coverage matrices for new features across our voice, chat, and email AI agentsAI agent validation: Testing agent conversations for accuracy, tone, hallucinations, and edge cases — figuring out how to systematically QA outputs that are different every time Release management: Owning the QA gate for releases, coordinating test cycles, managing regression suites, and signing off on production readiness Team management: Running a distributed QA team across SF and offshore locations — assigning work, reviewing results, setting standards, and keeping the team aligned across time zones Bug triage and reporting: Classifying, prioritizing, and clearly documenting defects so engineering can reproduce and fix issues efficiently Process design: Building the QA processes, workflows, and documentation that let us scale testing as the product and team grow As a senior QA lead, you'll be the core owner of ensuring quality releases in the company. You'll have real influence over release cadence, quality standards, and how QA fits into the development lifecycle. You Might Be a Fit If YouHave 7+ years of experience in QA or quality assurance, with a track record of leading test efforts for complex products Have managed or led distributed QA teams, ideally across time zones, and know how to keep offshore testers productive, motivated, and aligned with the SF engineering team Are excellent at test planning — you can look at a feature, think through the edge cases, and build a test strategy that catches the things engineers miss Have experience testing conversational AI, voice systems, chatbots, or other non-deterministic products where "correct" isn't always a single answer Are a clear, organized communicator — your bug reports are detailed, your test plans are thorough, and your status updates give leadership confidence Can push back on engineering when something isn't ready to ship, but also know when good enough is good enough for the stage the company is atAre comfortable being the person who builds the QA function from scratch — defining the processes, picking the tools, and setting the bar for quality Are excited about AI and want to figure out what quality assurance looks like for products that didn't exist five years ago Dinner stipend$150/month wellness benefit (gym, fitness classes, mental health)401(k) plan Medical, dental, and vision coverage Giga is an equal opportunity employer.
