We are looking for a Staff Quality Architect to be the technical authority on quality within our engineering organization. This is a high-impact, hybrid role: you will be a strategic consultant during the design phase, a mentor to the team, and a hands-on engineer who builds the automation frameworks that power our development. You won't just find bugs—you will design the systems that prevent them.

 Responsibilities:

• Partner with Product and Engineering to design comprehensive test strategies for complex features.
• Act as a mentor and coach to foster a "built-in quality" mindset, empowering developers to own their test plans and move quality upstream in the SDLC.
• Lead the definition of "Quality" for all new initiatives, ensuring test strategies are prioritized based on product needs, customer feedback, and risk areas.
• Design, build, and maintain scalable automation frameworks and shared libraries that enable feature teams to assert quality autonomously.
• Contribute to the development of debugging tools and infrastructure that make high-quality practices seamless and efficient for the entire engineering team.
• Conduct rigorous code reviews for both application and test code to ensure automation suites are as clean, maintainable, and performant as production code.
• Own the quality gates within the release process to ensure every release meets the highest standards of security and reliability.
• Work with developers to define and execute test plans for every feature under development, ensuring they align with the broader product strategy.
• Analyze test reports and system health to identify flakiness or gaps, providing targeted feedback where extra attention is needed.
• Own the reporting of internal and external quality metrics (including customer and field feedback), to help the team find the right balance between shipping new features and fixing existing issues.

#LI-CB1 

• Deep expertise in automated software testing methodologies and tools.
• You can write and understand code in TypeScript and/or Go.
• Proven track record of designing and implementing end-to-end automation frameworks (UI, API, and Integration) from scratch.
• You have experience influencing and coaching developers to take ownership of their own testing and quality practices.
• Holistic understanding of quality for security products, encompassing performance, resilience, and vulnerability assessment.
• Fluent in English, with the ability to explain complex technical quality trade-offs to both engineers and product stakeholders.
