Job Description

As a QA Team Lead at Deriv, you’ll be based in our bustling office in Dubai’s Business Bay. Dubai is renowned for its ultramodern architecture, luxury shopping, and vibrant nightlife, making it an exciting place to live and work.

Imagine yourself at the heart of Deriv’s global operations, where you’ll be the driving force behind the quality of our products. Your leadership will ensure that our testing processes are as robust as our ambition, and your team is equipped to tackle any challenge. You’ll guide and mentor a team of skilled QA engineers, fostering a culture of excellence, continuous improvement, and collaboration. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams, including developers, product managers, and other stakeholders, to ensure that quality is embedded in every stage of the development process. By developing and implementing effective testing strategies, you’ll play a pivotal role in ensuring that our products are released with confidence and meet the highest standards.

Dubai offers a unique blend of cosmopolitan living and rich cultural experiences, perfect for those seeking an adventurous yet balanced lifestyle. As part of our Dubai team, you’ll play a pivotal role in protecting Deriv’s digital assets, collaborating with professionals from around the world in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.

Your challenge and mission

Lead a team of QA engineers to new heights. You’ll be their mentor, their motivator, and their visionary leader, pushing them to break through boundaries, embrace innovation, and tackle challenges head-on.
Be the architect of our testing strategy. You’ll design, implement, and maintain cutting-edge test frameworks that align with our product goals and set the industry standard. Collaboration will be your superpower as you partner with developers and stakeholders, ensuring precision and care is applied to every platform—web, mobile, API, and backend.
Go beyond manual testing. You’ll lead the charge in test automation, adopting the latest tools and technologies like low-code and AI-driven solutions. You’ll be the driving force behind continuous testing, making sure our processes are as seamless as possible.
Imagine QA metrics that tell a story. You’ll build the systems to track our progress, measure success, and keep us always improving. And through it all, you’ll instill a security-first mindset in the team, making sure that every test we run shields our products from potential threats.
As the captain of this ship, you’ll identify risks before they become problems, navigating around obstacles to keep product quality high and timelines on track. You’ll be the explorer, always staying ahead of the curve, researching the latest trends, tools, and technologies in QA and test automation, ensuring we’re not just keeping up but leading the way.
