Software Quality Engineering Manager at Unifonic, Cairo remote
A leadership role in software quality at Unifonic in Cairo with remote work, tasked with testing agent and language-model outputs, including hallucination detection, protection-gap identification, and prompt-injection resistance.
Unifonic, the Saudi cloud communications company that describes its platform today as an AI-powered customer experience platform, is looking for a Software Quality Engineering Manager to lead development engineers specialized in testing (SDETs) distributed across several teams. The position is open in Cairo with a remote work model, and the role carries a responsibility that did not exist in quality job descriptions a few years ago: how to test a feature driven by an AI agent that does not give the same answer twice.
Role:Software Quality Engineering Manager at Unifonic, within the Products and Engineering division, based in Cairo, Egypt, full-time with a remote work model that allows work from anywhere up to 25 days per year. The posting mentions Istanbul as an alternative location for the same role.
Primary challenge:Leading and growing the SDET team, owning the release management process across products, and building automated testing frameworks for web and mobile applications. The hardest part is stated openly in the posting: establishing quality practices for AI-driven features, including verification of language model and agent outputs and testing of agent workflows. The posting lists the required skills one by one: hallucination detection, grounding, guardrails, fallback behavior, and prompt-injection resistance.
Key requirements:
- Ten years or more in development or testing, including seven years in quality roles on large-scale systems.
- At least three years managing SDET teams.
- Hands-on experience with automated testing frameworks such as Cucumber, Selenium and Rest Assured, with proficiency in Java or Python.
- Understanding of REST services and working with Agile and Scrum methodologies.
- Strong understanding of testing agent-based features, and the posting sets the minimum AI competency at level L5 according to the company’s internal scale.
Salary:Not disclosed. The posting does not specify a salary range or an application deadline.
Practical step:Before applying, write a one-page description of an AI feature you have tested in your current role and answer a single question: how did you determine that the output was incorrect rather than merely phrased differently? The difference between a candidate who led a traditional testing team and one ready for this role appears in the answer to that question, not in the length of the résumé.
