Create shared frameworks and guidance: Provide opinionated testing frameworks, patterns, and tooling that make it easier for product teams to write high-quality tests consistently, with visibility into test health and systemic gaps.
Own system-level coverage outcomes: Identify critical system-level scenarios that need explicit coverage, drive them to completion (often through partner teams), and ensure they’re integrated into continuous and/or release validation.
Collaborate across org boundaries: Partner closely with Cloud/Infrastructure, Reliability, Release Engineering, and product teams to turn production learnings into stronger pre-production detection.
WHAT YOU'LL BRING
Experience managing and developing a high-performing engineering team (including direct reports), with strong coaching, feedback, and performance management skills.
Strong technical background building or operating reliable distributed systems (or adjacent platform infrastructure) and the judgment to prioritize the failure modes that matter most.
Track record delivering internal platforms/tooling adopted by many teams—balancing ergonomics, speed, and long-term maintainability.
Comfort operating in ambiguous problem spaces where success depends on aligning stakeholders, clarifying ownership, and driving execution across multiple teams.
Ability to define and drive measurable outcomes (adoption, confidence signals, reduced escaped issues, faster incident-to-coverage time), not just ship tooling.
NICE TO HAVE
Experience with large-scale testing practices: chaos engineering, fault injection, workload replay/shadowing, performance testing, or multi-tenant test strategy.
Experience partnering with Release Engineering or CI/CD platform teams to institutionalize validations in pipelines.
Familiarity with observability and incident response practices, and translating incident learnings into preventative test coverage.
