Responsibilities

  • Lead, mentor, and grow a high-performing Quality Engineering Platform team.
  • Build an engineering culture focused on innovation, continuous improvement, ownership, and operational excellence.
  • Recruit, develop, and retain exceptional engineering talent while fostering career growth and technical leadership.
  • Build and evolve self-service quality engineering platforms that enable product teams to independently validate their software.
  • Develop scalable automation frameworks supporting unit, integration, API, UI, end-to-end, regression, performance, security, and compliance testing.
  • Create reusable testing libraries, tooling, templates, and CI/CD integrations that standardize quality practices across engineering.
  • Build AI-assisted capabilities for automated test generation, regression analysis, defect classification, release risk assessment, test maintenance, and synthetic test data creation.
  • Partner with Data & AI teams to develop validation strategies for AI-powered products, including LLM evaluation, prompt regression testing, model monitoring, and human-in-the-loop verification.
  • Partner with Software Engineering teams to embed quality throughout the software development lifecycle using shift-left and shift-right engineering practices.
  • Provide consulting, tooling, and technical guidance that enables product teams to deliver software with confidence.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
  • 7 years of software engineering, quality engineering, or software development experience.
  • 3+ years leading Quality Engineering, Test Engineering, SDET, or Developer Platform engineering teams.
  • Experience integrating automated testing into CI/CD pipelines and modern DevOps practices.
  • Strong understanding of AWS cloud technologies, APIs, distributed systems, and modern software architecture.
  • 6 - 7 years of software engineering, quality engineering, or software development experience.
  • Proven experience building engineering platforms that improve software quality and developer productivity.
  • Strong background developing automated testing frameworks for cloud-native applications and distributed systems.
  • Experience building internal developer platforms, engineering tooling, or self-service engineering capabilities.
  • Excellent communication, stakeholder management, organizational, and people leadership skills.

Nice to have

  • Experience using AI-assisted development and testing tools to improve engineering productivity.
  • Experience with Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, REST Assured, Karate, Postman, JUnit, TestNG, or similar automation technologies.
  • Experience with Kubernetes, Docker, Infrastructure as Code, and cloud-native platforms.
  • Experience implementing performance engineering, security testing, chaos engineering, or site reliability engineering practices.
  • Experience working within regulated environments including HIPAA, FDA, CAP/CLIA, ISO 13485, or SOC 2.
  • AWS certifications or software testing certifications are a plus.
  • Experience leading distributed engineering organizations.
