What   we’re   looking for: • 7+ years’ experience in Quality Assurance / Software Testing, including 2+ years in a people-management or team-lead capacity. • Strong technical understanding of how modern SaaS organizations design, build, and ship software. • Deep, hands-on knowledge of shift-left quality practices and how to operationalize them at scale. • Demonstrated experience building or maturing QA operating models, standards, or governance frameworks. • Working knowledge of test automation frameworks and CI/CD-integrated testing practices. • Experience defining metrics and building dashboards/reporting that inform executive decision-making. • A genuine passion for process, standards, and continuous improvement – you see structure   and process   as an enabler . • Strong written and verbal executive communication – can translate data into crisp updates and   facilitate   decisions.
