Create test cases, evaluation datasets, and quality benchmarks for prompts, retrieval pipelines, orchestration flows, and end-user interactions
Partner with AI engineers, product owners, and business stakeholders to define acceptance criteria and measurable quality standards
Identify model failure modes, edge cases, hallucination risks, and workflow breakdowns, and recommend corrective actions
Support automation of AI testing, monitoring, and quality reporting across development and production environments
Test data flows, APIs, integrations, and system dependencies that support AI-enabled business processes
Contribute to governance and release readiness by documenting defects, risks, test results, and quality decisions
Monitor production feedback, user behavior, and operational metrics to help drive continuous improvement
Help establish repeatable AI quality engineering practices, tooling, and controls for enterprise delivery

6+ years of experience in quality engineering, software testing, QA automation, or related technical roles
Experience testing enterprise applications, APIs, data pipelines, or workflow-based systems
Experience evaluating AI or ML-based systems, including prompt behavior, output quality, or model-driven workflows
Strong understanding of test strategy, defect management, root cause analysis, and quality metrics
Familiarity with automation frameworks, test management tools, and CI/CD-aligned quality processes
Ability to work across technical and business teams to define and validate expected outcomes

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with LLM evaluation, prompt testing, RAG validation, or AI observability tools
Familiarity with Python, SQL, APIs, or scripting for test automation and data validation
Experience building synthetic datasets, golden test sets, or evaluation frameworks for AI use cases
Exposure to responsible AI, model risk, privacy, or governance controls in enterprise settings
Experience in financial services, wealth management, consulting, or other regulated environments

Core Competencies

Analytical rigor and attention to detail
Structured testing and defect analysis
