Join us in securing the digital world together – where your work will make a lasting impact.
At F-Secure, our mission is to safeguard digital lives. To achieve this, we’re looking for a Test Lead who will own and evolve our testing strategy across functional and non-functional areas, particularly Feature Testing, API Testing, Manual and Release Testing, and Performance Validation. This position plays a crucial role in ensuring that our security products not only work flawlessly but also scale, perform, and delight. You will work across cross-functional teams and help shape the quality culture in a fast-moving, innovation-driven environment. You will be primarily contributing to F-Secure’s consumer cybersecurity products, trusted globally by millions. The solutions span mobile and desktop platforms (iOS, Android, Windows, macOS) and involve innovative features like AI-powered protection and custom partner configurations.
As Test Lead you would be reporting to the Quality Assurance Manager, and collaborate with developers and QA Engineers globally. While you would not have managerial responsibilities, you’ll serve as a technical mentor and standard-setter, embedding end-to-end testing into our development process through influence rather than hierarchy. Working across time zones as a technical driver, you’ll have significant growth opportunities; from becoming F-Secure’s go-to quality expert to expanding into test architecture, solution consulting, or AI-in-testing leadership, while participating in organization-wide quality improvements and strategy setting. This role suits someone who thrives on independent ownership, cross-cultural collaboration, and shaping QA practices.
You can choose to work at our office in Helsinki or in Bengaluru. We work in a hybrid model: you can work from home most of the time, but we’d love to see you in the office now and then too (e.g. 1-2 days a week or bi-weekly).
We just renovated our Helsinki office space to make them work better for everyone. Our new Helsinki HQ is designed for collaboration and teamwork, complete with some great perks a rooftop sauna and a fully equipped gym. Check it out here!
