Who we're looking for

Network Guard is looking for an experienced QA Lead to ensure our products are the highest quality and reduce our time to market. Some QA highlights for our organization:

We test heavily. We don’t leave things to luck. We test our products to ensure quality delivery.
We do shift-left testing. We provide a test plan as soon as the sprint begins to develop tests first (TDD) so we can find bugs early in the process.
We run fast. Tests should provide meaningful feedback in a short amount of time.
We test in complex environments. Our testing environments combine different network conditions, devices, and operating systems.

As a QA Lead, you will lead our QA engineers around multiple scrum teams and influence the quality of our product.

Build, lead, and mentor a team of QA engineers and manage outside contractors if needed.
Lead development of the QA strategy, test design/plan, and test automation, and drive test execution.
Oversee all aspects of quality assurance. Establish metrics, apply industry best practices, and develop new tools and processes to ensure quality goals are met.
Diagnose defects and track them from discovery to resolution.
You will be accountable for the following:
Quality: Drive down our defect escape rate.
Testability: Ensure high test coverage.
Velocity & efficiency: Reduce our testing cycle time.
Testing environment stability: Ensure the stability of our test environments.

Who you are
