We’re looking for a senior QA leader to drive end‑to‑end testing and quality engineering for a large‑scale telecom transformation program.

Test Program Leadership

  • Own and drive the end‑to‑end test strategy and execution across multiple transformation workstreams
  • Establish quality governance frameworks aligned with release plans and milestones
  • Lead large, distributed QA teams and manage multiple vendor partners
  • Ensure delivery against fixed‑bid / outcome‑based contracts (scope, cost, timelines, quality)
  • Drive cost optimization, productivity improvement, and margin protection
  • Manage testing budgets, forecasting, and resource utilization
  • Govern scope, change control, and risk mitigation

Demand Management & Resource Planning

  • Manage testing demand across releases and workstreams
  • Lead capacity planning, resource forecasting, and skill‑based allocation
  • Align resource scheduling with release cycles and delivery milestones
  • Address demand‑supply gaps and lead ramp‑up and skill transformation initiatives

AI‑First Quality Engineering

  • Drive adoption of AI‑enabled testing and intelligent automation
  • Define and execute the AI roadmap for Quality Engineering
  • Build a highly automated ecosystem across functional and non‑functional testing
  • Promote shift‑left and shift‑right testing practices

Stakeholder & Client Engagement

  • Act as the primary QA leader for senior client stakeholders
  • Provide strategic guidance on quality transformation initiatives
  • Lead quality reviews, defect governance forums, and release readiness discussions
  • Deliver executive dashboards and actionable quality insights

Risk & Quality Management

  • Proactively identify risks and implement defect‑prevention mechanisms
  • Use predictive quality metrics and AI‑driven analytics
  • Ensure strong governance across the entire testing lifecycle

Required Skills & Experience

  • 18+ years in Quality Engineering & Testing
  • 8+ years leading large transformation programs
  • Strong telecom domain experience
  • Proven leadership managing 100+ member distributed QA teams
  • Experience with fixed‑bid / outcome‑based delivery models
  • Expertise in AI‑driven testing and modern QA practices
  • Strong program governance and senior stakeholder management
  • Experience managing multi‑vendor ecosystems
  • Deep expertise in demand management, capacity planning, and workforce scheduling
  • Strong Agile delivery background
