ABOUT CINCH:
Reimagine access. Reimagine ownership. Build the future with Cinch.
Cinch is Southeast Asia’s leading circular tech subscription company, redefining how people and businesses access technology. Instead of adding to the growing e-waste crisis, we enable affordable, sustainable access to devices through subscriptions that maximize reuse and extend their lifecycle. We operate across B2C, B2B, and B2B2C channels, including major partnerships with global leaders like Samsung. Our model sits at the intersection of powerful mega trends — sustainability, embedded finance, and the shift from ownership to access — creating a massive opportunity to reshape the future of tech consumption. At Cinch, we are builders with high standards, a bias for action, and a shared mission to create a generational company that outlasts us. Freshly funded by leading institutional investors and growing rapidly, we’re creating an environment where ambitious people can do the best work of their careers — and where the work has real, lasting impact.
ABOUT THE ROLE:
As a Lead QA Automation Engineer, you won’t just be writing tests—you’ll be a force multiplier for quality across the engineering organization. You’ll co-develop an automation testing strategy and execution ensuring that our software products meet the highest quality standards.
You’ll lead efforts to identify critical coverage gaps, implement and scale test automation frameworks, and roll out self-service tools that enable developers to write, run, and promote tests with confidence. You’ll partner closely with engineering lead, developers, data and product teams to shift QA towards an enablement model that amplifies impact across teams.
You’ll help pilot new ways of working that reduce manual effort, catch defects earlier, and improve the signal-to-noise ratio in our CI pipeline—whether through smarter automation, better tooling, or new AI-integrated approaches to test reliability and triage. Ultimately, your work will help Cinch move faster without sacrificing confidence—by making automated quality an invisible but essential part of our software delivery process.
Skills and Qualifications:
- 5+ years of experience in an Automation Engineering role
- Strong ability and expertise in creating automated tests in Python or PHP and Selenium
- Strong programming expertise in one OOP language like Python, PHP, JS or Go
- Understanding of CI/CD and hands on experience with building and deployment tools like Github Actions, Jenkins, Docker
- Strong experience with automation design patterns, with proven experience in both backend and frontend projects
- You have a track record of advancing quality maturity by shifting QA from hands-on execution to developer enablement through self-service tooling and process improvements
- You are passionate about mentoring junior level team members to help them grow and learn
- Experience with Agentic AI is a huge plus
