Qualifications

• Proven experience leading QA or quality engineering within engineering organizations of approximately 100-500 employees, with demonstrable organizational and quality impact.
• Strong experience defining and implementing end-to-end QA strategies, quality gates, testing standards, and data-informed quality decision-making across multiple teams.
• Demonstrated leadership experience managing managers, senior technical specialists, principal-level engineers, and individual contributors.
• Experience scaling QA organizations and developing structures, processes, and operating models that support business and engineering growth.
• Strong technical understanding of complex enterprise software products, including functional testing, automation, reliability, performance, resilience, and high-load testing.
• Experience covering multiple product personas, including developers, business users, and technical administrators or operators.
• Ability to work across Kubernetes, cloud, microservices, and related operational environments.
• Strong understanding of automation and CI/CD-integrated testing practices; experience with tools such as Playwright or TestRail is advantageous.
• Experience with chaos engineering, advanced reliability testing, or performance benchmarking is a plus.
• Ability to influence engineering, product, UX, documentation, and customer-facing teams around shared quality objectives.
• Strong communication, stakeholder management, strategic thinking, and organizational leadership skills.
• Comfortable balancing long-term QA strategy with practical involvement in technical execution.
• Experience in enterprise software, workflow automation, or similarly complex technical products is highly relevant.
• Ability and willingness to use the product as part of the role.

Responsabilités

• Own and drive the end-to-end QA strategy, establishing quality gates, standards, processes, and cross-team accountability.
• Lead and scale two QA teams spanning functional and reliability engineering, including managers, a principal engineer, and individual contributors.
• Evolve the QA organization and operating model to support growth, improve effectiveness, and maximize engineering impact.
• Partner with senior and principal engineering leadership to strengthen reliability, performance, resilience, and high-load testing practices.
• Guide automation strategy and quality processes that enable engineering teams to deliver reliable, high-quality outcomes efficiently.
• Establish comprehensive quality coverage across business users, developers, and administrators/operators in Kubernetes, cloud, and bare-metal environments.
• Develop actionable quality metrics, dashboards, and reporting that provide leadership with data-driven insights for roadmap, release, and quality decisions.
• Collaborate with engineering, product, UX, documentation, and field teams to embed quality throughout the product development lifecycle.
• Stay connected to hands-on QA execution and technical challenges while providing strategic direction and organizational leadership.
