What You Need

• Experience Requirements
• The role is not strictly 10 yrs but would be a BIG plus if they have collective 10 yrs but they are accepting at least 5–10 years of experience.
• The team is evaluating the candidate’s overall/collective experience rather than focusing solely on the number of years.
• US healthcare experience is a strong advantage as it is considered a niche skill set and may command a higher level of expertise.

• Leadership / Lead Experience
• Lead-level experience is important/required for the position.

• Demonstrate a futuristic and innovative mindset toward processes and technology.
• Be capable of managing multiple priorities.
• Independence & Ownership
• The candidate must be independent and proactive.
• They should be able to take ownership of projects and move initiatives forward with appropriate guidance.
• The expectation is for someone who can identify problems and come up with proposed solutions, rather than waiting for instructions.
• The candidate will have the autonomy to run projects while working closely with the Senior Manager.
• Communication & Team Fit
• Strong collaboration and the ability to work cross-functionally are important.
• The team values transparency and honesty, particularly when discussing important issues or challenges.
• Candidates should demonstrate genuine communication and critical thinking.
• Candidates who appear overly scripted or simply provide rehearsed answers are viewed negatively.
• The ideal candidate should be able to communicate their thoughts naturally and demonstrate sound judgment based on actual experience.

• 10+ years of progressive experience in Software Quality Assurance, including both manual and automated testing.
• Proven experience leading QA teams and managing multiple concurrent projects.
