Your mission

Quality Is Not a Safety Net. It's an Engineering Discipline.

At Metrologic DCS, software quality is not something that happens at the end of a development sprint. It is built into how we think, how we design, and how we ship. Our software runs in the most demanding manufacturing environments on the planet — aerospace, automotive, precision engineering — where a defect isn't just a bug report, it's a problem on a factory floor.

This is a leadership role with real scope — managing people, defining strategy, and driving continuous improvement across a multi-site, international engineering organization that is actively growing and transforming.
