  • Drive software supply-chain hygiene (dependency governance, artifact signing, provenance, vulnerability SLAs).
  • Own test strategy: plans, requirements traceability, environments, data, and the full defect lifecycle (triage → fix → verify → close).
  • Prepare audit-ready documentation (test reports, risk registers, CAPAs) and lead corrective/preventive actions.
  • Mentor engineers; publish playbooks, checklists, and run training sessions.
  • Define and report KPIs (defect escape rate, MTTR for vulnerabilities, coverage, flaky-test rate, policy adherence).

Minimum Qualifications

  • Hands-on experience with automated testing and CI/CD quality gates.
  • Proficiency with at least two of: SAST, DAST, IAST, SCA, coverage/reporting frameworks, end-to-end testing tools.
  • Strong grasp of secure SDLC and modern software supply-chain practices (SBOMs, attestations, artifact signing).
  • Proficiency in one or more languages (e.g., Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, Go, C/C++).
  • Excellent documentation discipline and clear, concise communication.

Nice to Have

  • Background in mission-critical, safety-critical, or regulated environments.
  • Threat modeling and risk management (e.g., STRIDE), fuzzing, and runtime security.
  • IaC security and policy-as-code (e.g., Terraform, OPA).
  • Familiarity with standards/guidelines like CERT or MISRA where relevant.
  • Prior experience leading a quality/compliance or V&V function.
