• Defining the desired quality level based on product vision, business strategy, and organizational status
• Establishing QA systems and mechanisms to achieve the mission (including training and hiring QA members)
• Developing test strategies and leading test planning, design, and execution
• Reviewing product specifications from a quality perspective and proposing improvements
• Continuously promoting automated and manual testing throughout the software delivery process
• Other tasks include identifying quality-related issues and planning and promoting initiatives to address them.

Your skills and experience

Must have:

• Proven track record of leading the formulation, design, and execution of comprehensive QA strategies.
• Fluent business-level English communication skills, with the ability to discuss technical concepts and align with global stakeholders.

Nice to have: 

• Experience managing QA and development workflows for large-scale systems that span multiple cross-functional teams.
• Experience designing and implementing testing processes in accordance with standards such as ISTQB, ISO29119, or general global QA best practices.
• Direct people management and leadership experience overseeing QA engineering teams.
• Practical experience driving quality assurance within fast-paced Agile development environments.
