Director, Quality Assurance

At Nuna, our mission is to make high-quality healthcare affordable and accessible for everyone. We are dedicated to tackling one of our nation’s biggest problems with ingenuity, creativity, and a keen moral compass.

Nuna is committed to simple principles: a rigorous understanding of data, modern technology, and most importantly, compassion and care for our fellow human. We want to know what really works, what doesn't—and why. 

YOUR TEAM

You’ll lead a cross-functional team of software engineers, analysts, and manual testers to ensure that Nuna is always shipping quality applications built on solid data, architecture, and process foundations. You’ll partner with engineering leaders across the organization to understand what platform, application and data assets they operate with, and your team will build, integrate, and drive adoption of the systems needed to take quality and operations to the next level.

YOUR OPPORTUNITIES

In this role, you will:

• Act as the gatekeeper on if a release is ready to ship, holding other engineering leaders accountable
• Establish and be directly responsible for the quality metrics tracked by the executive team
• Drive quality tooling and frameworks, meaning
  • Drive build vs. buy decisions and own the quality architecture
  • Hire a team of excellent engineers that can get “in the weeds” with engineering to create, maintain, and integrate our framework across engineering
  • Own planning and outcomes related to the above
• Understand what other teams are building so you can evolve our quality strategy and drive adoption
• Steer where we make future investments in the product by bringing data on where we need to invest to improve
• Own the quality of our data and products as a whole
• Bring a step-function change in how the organization approaches quality, you’ll quickly develop a plan to do so spanning the development teams in the organization, and you’ll drive the plan with support from other senior leaders
