- Overseeing test planning, execution, and release readiness across multiple teams
- Partnering with Engineering and Product teams to embed quality throughout the development lifecycle
- Driving improvements in testing methodologies, automation coverage, and quality metrics
- Building visibility into product quality through reporting, dashboards, and data-driven decision making
