CloudBees enables enterprises to deliver scalable, compliant, and secure software, empowering developers to do their best work. As the Director of Quality Engineering, you will lead a global team to transform quality engineering practices and ensure testing capabilities keep pace with the rapid scaling of the platform.

Responsibilities:

• Scale and harden our existing testing framework into a robust, enterprise-grade automated testing suite
• Build performance and load-testing capabilities to ensure the platform scales ahead of customer demand
• Actively evaluate and implement modern quality tools for test suite management, accelerate authoring, and automate maintenance of E2E suites
• Identify where quality checks act as bottlenecks and re-engineer the CI/CD pipeline to ensure safety doesn't come at the expense of speed
• Upskill a team of engineers to focus on automated system validation, performance engineering, and proactive risk mitigation

Requirements:

• 8+ years in Quality Engineering, with 3+ years in a leadership role with a track record of building technical functions from scratch or transforming existing teams into high-output, automation-first organizations
• Lead the adoption of modern quality practices at every stage of the development lifecycle, leveraging embedded resources and providing the necessary tools and training to achieve excellence
• Experience establishing performance/stress testing protocols for microservices-based architectures
• Expert-level understanding of modern test automation pipelines, tools and frameworks in cloud-native SaaS environments
• A forward-looking approach to quality, with a clear perspective on how to leverage LLMs and AI to accelerate test coverage and maintenance
• Ability to translate technical quality metrics into business risk and product confidence
