Manager, Quality Engineering

Dublin, OH

Manager, Quality Engineering
Job Summary

At IGS, we leverage Agile and Lean techniques, such as acceptance test-driven development, continuous integration, and story-based iterative development. As a Quality Engineer Manager, you will coach and coordinate the workload for a group of Quality Engineers in a fast-paced Agile environment. Quality Engineers at IGS are involved in all phases of software development, from requirements definition to production releases. They are embedded in cross-function teams of analysts, developers, product managers, and testing staff, collectively striving to quickly deliver high-quality, high-value software. This contrasts to most other environments where the culture encourages "throwing the code over the wall" for QA's and QE's to test. We work in an environment that encourages individual initiative, leadership at all levels, and team-based continuous improvement void of hierarchy and bureaucracy. At times you may be asked to balance hands-on development along with leadership responsibilities. However, your most important responsibility will be building a team emphasizing a culture of excellence, high-performance, and continuous improvement.
