- Owning our QA budget, forecasting, and vendor management, aligning all external testing efforts for maximum cost efficiency and positive impact.
- Coaching our in-house QA team members, and encouraging a shared sense of accountability. You’re not a supervisor but rather the craft expert who leads the way.
- Driving continuous improvement for all QA processes, tools, and practices to ensure we're always ready for a smooth, exciting release.
- Understanding and supporting investigations into live issues, ensuring a consistently high-quality experience throughout development and ongoing live operations.

- You're comfortable and committed to managing external vendors and QA budgets, ensuring we're working together effectively.
- You're proficient with test and defect management tools, and you understand how to use data and analytics to track KPIs and make informed decisions.
