We are looking for a highly skilled and experienced Quality Manager to lead and manage the overall quality assurance and testing efforts within our R&D organization. This role is crucial for ensuring that all products and services meet our high standards of quality, reliability, and regulatory compliance. The ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of software quality assurance, test automation, and QA processes, and will have experience working with both manual and automated testing teams, especially within fast-paced, high-tech product environments.

This role will be focused on building, leading, and mentoring a cross-functional QA team, driving testing excellence across all product lines including Metabolic, MSK, Twill Behavioral Health, and mobile app products. The Quality Manager will work closely with the R&D teams and leadership to ensure seamless collaboration and the delivery of high-quality products.

QA Strategy & Leadership:

  • Develop and implement the company QA strategy, including both manual and automated testing frameworks, to ensure high-quality product releases across all product lines (Metabolic, MSK, Twill Behavioral Health, Mobile Apps).
  • Lead a cross-functional QA team, including manual testers, automation engineers, and performance testers, to ensure the effective execution of testing strategies.
  • Set quality goals and KPIs for the teams to measure success and track progress.

  • Establish and enforce best practices for testing methodologies, tools, and processes, ensuring alignment with Agile and DevOps practices.
  • Oversee the development and execution of test plans, test cases, and test scripts for manual and automated testing across all platforms, including mobile apps and backend services.
  • Ensure that test coverage is comprehensive, focusing on both functional and non-functional aspects such as performance, security, and usability.

Automation & Tools:

  • Drive the adoption and expansion of test automation across the product suite (backend services, mobile apps, and front-end applications), ensuring efficient and scalable testing processes.
  • Select and integrate appropriate tools and frameworks for test management, defect tracking, and automation to support the QA efforts.
  • Monitor and improve automated test coverage, reducing manual testing efforts where applicable.

Collaboration with R&D Teams:

  • Work closely with the development and product teams to ensure that quality is embedded throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
  • Participate in sprint planning, daily stand-ups, and release retrospectives to ensure smooth delivery cycles and prompt identification and resolution of defects.
  • Act as the key point of contact for all QA aspects of releases, providing detailed reports and updates to stakeholders.

Quality Control & Compliance:

  • Ensure that all products meet the organization’s quality standards, regulatory requirements (e.g., HIPAA), and industry best practices.
  • Collaborate with the compliance and security teams to maintain testing procedures that align with regulatory guidelines and security requirements.
  • Drive continuous quality improvements by analyzing defect patterns, root causes, and implementing long-term solutions.

Risk Management & Problem Solving:

  • Identify potential risks to product quality early in the development cycle and implement appropriate mitigation strategies.
  • Provide leadership in troubleshooting and root cause analysis for critical issues in production or pre-production environments.

Requirements

Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

Experience:

  • Experience working with cloud technologies (e.g., AWS, EKS) is a plus.
  • Familiarity with regulatory testing for healthcare or digital health products is a strong advantage (e.g., FDA, HIPAA compliance).

Technical Skills:

  • Strong understanding of software development and testing methodologies, including Agile and DevOps.
  • Proficiency with test automation tools (e.g., Selenium, Appium), CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Git actions), and defect tracking tools (e.g., Jira.).
  • Solid understanding of programming languages (Python, JavaScript, Java) and the ability to understand and analyze code.
  • Expertise in developing and managing testing frameworks, automation scripts, and performance testing strategies.

Soft Skills:
