📋 Description

• Lead, hire, and develop a team of QA Engineers (II and III) running regular 1:1s, structured career development conversations, and performance reviews. • Actively participate in ongoing releases as the senior quality owner - tracking progress, unblocking the team, and holding accountability for the overall delivery of QA commitments across all active workstreams. • Own the QA strategy across all assigned product areas and development teams, ensuring test coverage standards and release governance processes align with engineering and business objectives. • Oversee the QA release process across different development teams - ensuring all releases follow the Central QA process, quality gates are enforced, and sign-off conditions are consistently met before production deployment. • Serve as the escalation point for complex defects, release-blocking quality risks, cross-team process conflicts, and resourcing concerns - and ensure the right stakeholders are engaged at the right time. • Drive the automation roadmap: set coverage targets, evaluate frameworks, and ensure CI/CD integration steadily reduces manual regression effort. • Attend and contribute to roadmap discussions, release planning, and retrospectives as a required participant. • Build a culture of shift-left testing - embedding quality thinking into design, planning, and code review across all teams, not just the test phase. • Coordinate QA planning across squads for major releases and platform migration. • Research and evaluate emerging QA tools and practices; make grounded build-vs-buy recommendations based on team capacity, product risk profile, and long-term quality goals. • Own the QA process documentation - reviewing quarterly and communicating updates to all engineering teams.

🎯 Requirements

• 10 or more years in QA, including at least two to three years in a lead or senior QA role with direct people-management responsibility. • Demonstrated ability to stay hands-on in active releases - tracking delivery commitments, removing blockers, and holding the team accountable to quality outcomes without micromanaging. • Deep understanding of release governance - experienced in overseeing go/no-go decisions, enforcing sign-off conditions, and managing quality risk across multiple concurrent releases. • Strong technical grounding in manual testing, API and backend testing, and automation, credible enough to review the work of QA Engineers and provide substantive feedback. • Proven experience conducting and guiding root cause analysis across frontend and backend defects, able to connect systemic quality risks to process and tooling improvements. • Strong data instincts - able to design metrics frameworks and present a coherent quality story to non-technical stakeholders and senior leadership. • Skilled at influencing and aligning cross-functional teams without direct authority. • Collaborative leadership style that builds trust with engineers, product managers, and senior leaders alike. • Some of the good-to-have qualifications. • ISTQB Advanced or Expert certification. • Experience scaling QA practices across distributed or multi-timezone teams. • Background in conversational AI, NLP platforms, or high-volume real-time systems. • Experience with GitLab CI/CD practices.
