About this role

Meta is seeking a QA Engineering Lead with expertise in AI product and model testing to drive the quality vision for our next-generation AI-powered products. In this role, you will lead the design and execution of comprehensive test strategies for AI models spanning text, image, and voice, ensuring our solutions are robust, reliable, and ethically sound. You will work on products built with cutting-edge technology, serving billions of users worldwide, and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of AI quality at Meta.

Responsibilities

  • Build and foster a quality-driven engineering environment that enables rapid, confident product releases, ensuring that quality is embedded throughout the development lifecycle
  • Develop and implement robust evaluation processes for AI models, including prompt engineering, scenario-based, and adversarial testing for text, image, and voice AI systems
  • Drive the quality for products and features, assess risks, and ensure features ship with a high quality bar, balancing speed and experience
  • Plan, develop, and execute comprehensive test strategies across core Meta products and platforms, leveraging both manual and automated approaches
  • Lead quality assurance efforts that align with product objectives, developing scalable solutions to support rapid product iteration and deployment
  • Solve cross-platform engineering challenges and contribute impactful ideas to improve quality, reliability, and user experience across diverse product surfaces
  • Implement and evolve QA processes to obtain effective test signals and scale testing efforts across multiple products, ensuring continuous improvement
  • Define quality metrics and implement measurements to determine test effectiveness, testing efficiency, and overall product quality, using data-driven insights to guide decisions
  • Partner with engineering and infrastructure teams to leverage automation for scalable solutions, preventing regressions and ensuring the reliability of products and AI models
  • Apply Responsible AI practices including safety, ethics, alignment, and explainability by building safeguards and quality controls to validate AI outputs, ensuring transparency, and compliance with ethical standards

Minimum Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
  • 5+ years of experience in quality assurance, test engineering, and test automation
  • 1+ years of hands-on experience testing AI-powered products (web, iOS, and/or Android) that generate or transform text, images, and/or voice, including end-to-end feature validation and user experience quality
  • 1+ years of hands-on experience testing, debugging, and evaluating LLM/multimodal model behavior, including defining and applying quality standards for accuracy, relevance, grounding, safety/policy compliance, and cultural/locale sensitivity, and driving model-quality regressions to resolution
  • Experience effectively utilizing AI technologies and tools (e.g., large language models, agents, etc.) to enhance QA workflows
  • Experience collaborating cross-functionally and contributing to technical decisions through influence, communication, and execution
  • Experience changing priorities quickly and adapt effectively in a fast-moving product development cycle

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in Python, PHP, Java, C/C++, or equivalent programming language
  • Experience leading and executing black-box and white-box testing strategies (test planning, coverage, execution, and triage)
  • Experience partnering with AI/ML research and engineering teams, and communicating effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders at multiple levels
  • Experience building AI-assisted test automation/test agents using LLMs and agent frameworks (e.g., internal or industry tools) to generate, execute, and maintain tests
  • Experience using analytics to define, measure, and improve QA operational KPIs (e.g., defect escape rate, detection latency, automation coverage, flake rate)
  • Experience designing and building test automation frameworks that leverage generative AI for test creation, prioritization, and maintenance
  • Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
  • Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
  • Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies

Compensation

  • $138,000/year - $191,000/year; Country: US; Bonus eligible; Equity eligible
