# Lead Test Framework Architect (M/F/D)

Job Description Agilent is building a Kubernetes-based software platform spanning instruments, applications, and shared services across multiple product lines. We are embedding AI into how we build and verify software. We are looking for a Lead Test Framework Architect to lead the adoption of AI in our software test lifecycle, and to build the test frameworks, evaluation methods, and governance that let us ship AI-accelerated software safely in regulated, GxP / 21 CFR Part 11 environments. This is a hands-on senior individual-contributor role. AI accelerates software delivery, but that acceleration exposes weaknesses downstream without a strong automated-testing control system. Building that control system - and leading the organization to adopt it - is the core of this role. Responsibilities: Lead AI SDLC adoption for quality engineering. Own the strategy for AI-assisted test authoring, execution, triage, and maintenance. Prove value through reference workflows, then scale adoption across product teams. Build AI-native test frameworks. Design workflows that generate unit, contract, integration, and E2E suites from specifications and intent. Verify that AI-generated tests exercise
