Technical Test Manager Position Description

Mission

Lead and mature the enterprise testing strategy across all business units. Develop a scalable, future‑ready quality engineering approach that strengthens reliability, accelerates delivery, and ensures consistency across teams and products—especially within C++ and embedded‑system environments.

Key Responsibilities

  • Define and maintain the enterprise-wide testing strategy and roadmap.
  • Establish a test architecture covering unit, integration, system, e2e, performance, and reliability testing.
  • Drive consistent use of modern testing practices such as the Test Pyramid.
  • Provide leadership across business units to elevate quality culture and engineering excellence.
  • Guide automation principles and tooling direction without prescribing specific frameworks.
  • Oversee CI/CD quality gates and ensure reliable, actionable test integration.
  • Identify opportunities to introduce AI for test generation, prioritization, and failure analysis.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Software, DevOps, Architecture, and Product teams.

Required Qualifications

  • Strong experience building testing strategies for complex systems including C++ and embedded software.
  • Proven leadership of Test Engineering or QE/SDET teams across multiple product areas.
  • Ability to define testing frameworks and quality approaches without tying the org to specific tools.
  • Strong understanding of CI/CD concepts, quality gates, and automation fundamentals.
  • Excellent communication and influence across teams and senior stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated traits: hungry, humble, and smart.

Nice to Have

  • Experience testing embedded systems including real-time or resource‑constrained environments.
  • Familiarity with C++ static analysis and memory‑safety tooling.
  • Exposure to AI‑augmented testing or analytics-driven quality insights.
  • Experience with long‑run reliability or system‑level validation.

Current Tech Stack (Informational Only)

Below reflects the CURRENT environment and is provided for context only. These are NOT future requirements and should not constrain future evolution of tooling or frameworks.

  • Programming: C++ (primary), Python (for test tooling).
  • Automation: Robot Framework (Python‑based).
  • Tooling: Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket (Atlassian suite).
  • CI/CD: Bamboo (primary), Jenkins (secondary/legacy).
  • Domains: Embedded systems, system-level testing.
