This is a hands-on leadership role, not a management seat. You will build the QA function from zero: the test strategy, the automation frameworks, and the release process.
Responsibilities
Own the QA function end to end: test strategy, coverage priorities, and quality standards across all products.
Build test automation frameworks from scratch across web and API layers with a modern framework such as Playwright, and wire them into CI so every deployment runs through automated quality gates.
Make AI a core part of the quality toolchain: AI-assisted test generation, pull request analysis, risk-based test targeting, and whatever else multiplies your coverage.
Own release quality: define the regression baseline, run release candidates through it, triage and prioritise defects, and give the go/no-go recommendation before production deployments.
Set up risk-based testing across the platform, focusing effort where failures cost the most.
Work with tech leads and product management to bring quality practices into how features are designed and built, not only how they are tested at the end.
Establish defect prevention practices and act as the internal reference on testing for the engineering teams.
