We are looking for a QA Manager to lead a team of 6, overseeing the quality of our internal Loan Sanctioning (LSP) and Management Systems (LMS). You will transition the team from a manual gatekeeper model to an automated enabler model. Your success will be measured by the successful decoupling of releases through mocking, the maturity of our automation framework, and the eventual transition of automation ownership to the development squads.
