We are midway through a shift from an embedded QA model to an enablement model in which every squad owns its outcomes. As the Senior Manager, Quality Engineering, you will guide that transformation, building self-service quality capabilities, coaching engineers to “shift left,” and introducing AI-driven automation so we ship better code faster.
What You’ll Do
- Partner with the Head of Quality to convert strategy into quarterly objectives and key results for more than 40 product squads.
- Build and evangelize self-service quality platforms for test generation, data management, CI/CD integration, and observability.
- Implement AI-driven code-review guards (LLM-based static analysis, pull-request copilots) that surface defects before code merges.
- Pilot and scale GenAI or ML tools that accelerate test creation, root-cause analysis, and release decisions.
- Define and publish quality and reliability metrics such as escaped-defect rate, flaky-test burn-down, and mean time to detect.
- Lead and develop a distributed team of quality engineers embedded in squads, coaching them to raise the engineering bar.
- Run continuous-improvement rituals including blameless post-incident reviews and defect-prevention workshops.
- Partner with Engineering, Product, and Design to embed quality and observability into architecture and release planning from day one.
- Rationalize external vendors and spend, negotiate contracts that align to automation and AI goals, and sunset legacy manual-testing engagements.
