This is a senior quality engineering leadership role responsible for delivering consistent, measurable quality across a portfolio of products, applications, and agile delivery teams. You will lead quality engineering professionals while partnering closely with Product, Engineering, Architecture, Platform, DevOps, and enterprise quality teams. The role focuses on strengthening automation, release readiness, testing practices, and continuous improvement throughout the software development lifecycle. You will use quality metrics and production outcomes to identify risks, reduce defects and rework, and improve delivery confidence. The position also provides an opportunity to modernize quality engineering through reusable frameworks, CI/CD integration, and AI-assisted testing capabilities. You will operate in a collaborative, matrixed environment where technical leadership, people development, and cross-functional influence are equally important. Success will be measured through stronger quality signals, more reliable releases, improved automation, and high-performing engineering teams.

  • Lead quality engineering execution across a defined portfolio of applications, products, and agile delivery teams.
  • Manage, coach, and develop quality engineering leaders, engineers, and SDETs, with accountability for engagement, performance, and career growth.
  • Implement quality engineering standards, governance, and practices established by segment and enterprise leadership.
  • Direct quality planning and execution across functional, integration, end-to-end, regression, and release validation activities.
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, and delivery leaders to embed quality considerations into planning, design, development, testing, and release processes.
  • Oversee defect management, including triage coordination, trend analysis, root-cause follow-up, and corrective action tracking.
  • Lead release readiness assessments and ensure appropriate validation is completed before production deployments.
  • Increase automation adoption by expanding sustainable regression coverage and improving testing efficiency.
  • Partner with engineering and platform teams to integrate automated validations and quality checks into CI/CD pipelines.
  • Coordinate non-functional quality activities covering performance, resiliency, operational readiness, and security validation.
  • Monitor quality metrics, delivery trends, and production outcomes to identify systemic risks and continuous improvement opportunities.
  • Escalate portfolio-level quality concerns, delivery risks, and capacity constraints to senior quality leadership.
  • Contribute to quality engineering modernization through enterprise tools, reusable frameworks, improved processes, and innovative delivery practices.
  • Enable responsible AI-assisted quality engineering within established governance, including capabilities such as test generation, risk-based prioritization, defect clustering, summarization, and self-healing recommendations.
  • Ensure AI-generated outputs are appropriately validated, traceable where required, and aligned with security, privacy, and compliance expectations.
  • Share AI adoption insights, lessons learned, and capability needs with segment leadership.
