About The Position

We are looking for an Engineering Manager for Software Quality Operations, who will lead two complementary functions, Triage Engineering (handling failure analysis, reproduction, feedback loops) and Scenario Engineering (scenario library creation, coverage definition, simulation test development), and ensure they work collaboratively, efficiently, and at scale. You’ll help shape the technical vision, scale a high-performing team, and drive execution with cross-functional stakeholders in Product, Engineering, and Sales.

Requirements

Bachelor's or higher degree in Engineering such as Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Robotics highly preferred; or at least 4 years of equivalent knowledge and work experience
2+ years of experience leading or managing a team that will make an impact on safety, reliability, and customer trust
2+ years of professional experience working on safety critical and complex systems such as Robotics, Autonomous Vehicles, Automotive, or Aerospace Technologies

Experience with Linux and scripting languages (E.g: Bash/Shell, Python)
Experience using issue tracking and configuration management tools (E.g: Atlassian Confluence, Jira, Bitbucket, Git)
Strong troubleshooting, debugging, and analytical and creative problem solving skills

Responsibilities

Grow and manage a high-performing team of Triage Engineers and Scenario Engineers
Own triage operations: establish workflows for ingesting data, prioritizing failures, reproducing issues, assigning to appropriate owners, and closing the loop with development teams
Own scenario engineering operations: define a scenario library covering relevant operating design domains, define safety/comfort metrics, partner with product/engineering to drive scenario reuse, and ensure metrics & visualizations support decision-making
Build tooling, automation, dashboards and processes that enable scalable ops
Partner cross-functionally with Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, Safety, Simulation, and Product teams - align on risk, coverage gaps, root-cause trends, and process improvements
Define and monitor key performance indicators for both functions
Influence road-map decisions: provide actionable feedback from triage findings and scenario coverage gaps into product/engineering strategy
Ensure team compliance with relevant safety/quality standards and best practices
