At Branch, we power every touchpoint with links that work and insights that prove it. From click to conversion, we make growth measurable. Our unparalleled attribution, backed by AI-enhanced linking, is trusted to deliver seamless experiences that increase ROI, decrease wasted spend, and eliminate siloed attribution.

We bring the same rigor to how we build our team, by empowering our people to move fast, own outcomes, and build something that matters.

About the Group

We are looking for a senior, hands-on AI-Driven Testing & Delivery Lead to define and scale how testing is done across the organization. This role owns the end-to-end testing approach, from defining what and how we test to implementing tools, integrating testing into CI/CD, and enabling teams to build and maintain reliable automated tests.

You will work closely with Engineering and Product to establish clear standards and ensure testing is part of how we develop and deliver software, not a separate function. This is not a traditional QA role. You will enable engineering teams to own testing, while providing the frameworks, tools, and guidance to make that successful.

What You'll Do

• Own, design, and drive how testing is implemented across the system, including standards, coverage, and guardrails.
• Shape and evolve the testing stack end-to-end (Playwright, Karate, Pact, Postman, etc.).
• Define the approach for creating, reviewing, executing, and maintaining test cases and test scripts.
• Drive adoption of AI-assisted testing (Claude Code, Windsurf, Copilot) to accelerate test creation, debugging, and maintenance.
• Work hands-on with teams to help them define test cases, write initial tests, and ensure they can continue independently.
• Build and own a scalable regression and smoke testing approach.
• Own the integration of testing into CI/CD pipelines, defining guardrails for execution and deployment gating.
• Work with Engineering and Infrastructure teams to define, establish, and improve test environments, data, and stability.
• Continuously improve test reliability, reduce flakiness, and drive clear processes for test results and debugging.
• Define and drive testing metrics to measure quality and guide improvements.
• Act as the central point of coordination and champion for quality practices across Engineering and Product.

We're Looking for Someone With

• 7+ years of experience in software engineering, test automation, or quality engineering.
• Strong hands-on experience with test automation across multiple layers (API, service, UI).
• Experience building and scaling test frameworks and automation practices.
• Strong understanding of modern testing tools and approaches (Playwright, Karate, API/contract testing, etc.).
• Experience integrating testing into CI/CD pipelines and working with modern development workflows.
• Ability to design testing strategies, define coverage, and establish standards across teams.
• Hands-on coding experience and ability to write and review test code as needed.
• Experience adopting AI into QA practices (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or Copilot).
• Comfortable working in fast-moving environments and building processes from scratch.
