About Scrumconnect

Scrumconnect Consulting is a UK-based digital transformation consultancy delivering agile, secure, and scalable technology solutions for public and private sector clients. This is a fully remote role based in India, supporting UK operations and client engagements. The successful candidate will work closely with UK leadership teams and must be comfortable operating within UK regulatory, governance, and delivery frameworks.

We are looking for an experienced Test Manager to lead quality assurance and testing activities within a large-scale cloud data engineering programme operating across a modern AWS-native technology ecosystem, including Apache Airflow, Amazon Athena, AWS Glue, S3, EMR, DynamoDB, and related cloud services.

This role combines hands-on technical leadership with test strategy ownership. You will be responsible for defining and driving the overall testing approach across automated pipelines, data workflows, cloud infrastructure, and release delivery while managing risks, improving testing standards, and mentoring engineering teams.

The ideal candidate will have strong experience in Big Data and Data Lake environments, including testing both structured and unstructured datasets, and will be comfortable operating in highly automated CI/CD-driven delivery environments.

You will work closely with engineering, DevOps, architecture, and stakeholder teams to ensure quality is embedded throughout the software delivery lifecycle.

Support testing and monitoring of workflows orchestrated through Apache Airflow
Drive root cause analysis for production data issues and platform defects

Risk Management & Reporting

Identify, assess, and communicate quality risks across releases and environments
Analyse test execution metrics, defects, trends, and quality indicators
Translate technical findings into clear, prioritised reporting for technical and non-technical stakeholders
Provide regular status reporting to programme leadership and client stakeholders

CI/CD & DevOps

Collaborate with DevOps and engineering teams to improve release quality and deployment confidence
Ensure automated test execution within GitLab CI/CD pipelines
Support infrastructure testing and validation within Terraform-managed cloud environments
Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives across testing and delivery processes

Technology Stack

Apache Airflow, Amazon Athena, AWS S3, AWS Glue, AWS EMR, AWS EC2, AWS ECR, AWS DynamoDB, AWS CloudWatch, AWS IAM, Python, SQL, Java, Bash, GitLab CI/CD, Jupyter Notebooks, Apache Spark / PySpark, Terraform, Docker
