Are you a Test Automation Lead who wants to shape the automation approach for an entire platform instead of a single product?
At Teleste, you'll take ownership of test automation for a complex platform powering public transport and public safety solutions
used around the world. As our Platform Test Automation Lead, you'll define the automation strategy, build scalable frameworks, and
create reusable solutions that support multiple products and development teams.
This is a rare opportunity to combine hands-on technical work with strategic influence in an environment that spans embedded Linux
devices, web applications, APIs, real-time communication systems, and long-lifecycle mission-critical solutions..
What you'll do
As our Test Automation Lead, you'll shape how test automation is built and scaled across a platform that powers public transport
and public safety solutions worldwide.
You will:
Own the platform-wide test automation strategy and drive its future direction.
Build scalable, reusable automation frameworks used across multiple products and projects.
- Work with a diverse technology landscape, including embedded Linux devices, web applications, APIs, and real-time communication
systems.
- Collaborate closely with developers, architects, product owners, and test engineers to embed quality into the development
process.
Guide and support a community of automation practitioners across the organization.
Stay hands-on by designing, building, and improving automation solutions yourself.
What we’re looking for?
You understand what it takes to build automation that scales beyond a single product or team. Perhaps you've created frameworks,
practices, or tools that others still rely on today.
We're looking for someone with:
Experience leading test automation in complex software, platform, or system environments.
Strong hands-on skills in Robot Framework and Python.
Experience with UI, API, and integration testing.
Knowledge of CI/CD and modern software development practices.
The ability to design reusable solutions that support multiple teams and products.
Strong communication and collaboration skills.
A passion for quality, continuous improvement, and solving complex challenges.
This role is based in Tampere and combines the flexibility of hybrid work with the value of face-to-face collaboration. Therefore,
the position is not available as a fully remote role.
Why this role stands out?
Most automation roles focus on a single product or team. This one doesn't.
Here you'll influence how automation is designed and executed across an entire platform ecosystem. Your work will help development
teams move faster, improve product quality, and support solutions used daily by passengers and operators around the world.
If you enjoy solving technically demanding challenges, building things that last, and seeing your work adopted by many teams,
you'll feel at home here.

throughout the process and will be in touch as soon as possible.
