Key Responsibilities
- Own the overall QA strategy for quality across multiple delivery streams, aligning testing strategy with product and business goals.
- Lead, coach, and mentor a team of QA engineers, building a collaborative, high-trust quality culture across delivery teams.
- Design and maintain test automation frameworks and expand automated coverage across UI, API, and performance layers.
- Embed quality gates into CI/CD pipelines so defects are caught early and releases stay predictable.
- Shift quality left, early in the SDLC — anticipate blockers, prevent defects at the source, and drive continuous process improvement.
- Make and communicate release readiness using data and metrics such as defect leakage, test coverage, and escape rate.
- Translate technical risk into clear business impact for stakeholders, developers, and clients.
