About The Role

• This is both an enablement and an execution role.
• You will enable teams by providing them with the environment and knowledge to run a robust quality program.
• You will execute by performing tests where appropriate.
• You are a software engineer first, a quality practitioner second.
• You will change the way we develop and ship reliable software by “shifting left” on quality, automating our tests, and moving the needle on our key quality metrics.
• You will guide our world-class software engineering team on our continuous improvement journey.
• You will enable our engineering teams to thoroughly test their own code through tooling, piloting, advocacy, and education.
• Over time you will show continual, meaningful software quality progress, leading to high confidence among business stakeholders, partners, and clients.
