Job DescriptionAgilent 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 specified intent, not implementation. Integrate GitHub Copilot (enterprise standard) and complementary tools (e.g., Qodo, Diffblue, Playwright AI agents, self-healing frameworks) into CI/CD quality gates.
Test our AI features. Build evaluation and regression frameworks for LLM- and agent-powered product capabilities: non-deterministic evaluation, hallucination and grounding scoring, drift detection, and AI observability using OpenTelemetry GenAI conventions.
Own the regulatory bridge. Integrate AI-assisted testing into validated environments using risk-based Computer Software Assurance (CSA), GAMP 5 (2nd Edition) and the ISPE GAMP AI Guide, and - for diagnostics software - IEC 62304. Preserve audit trails, traceability, and data integrity for AI-generated artifacts.
