Summary

Join Contentsquare as a Senior Engineering Manager in Quality Engineering to lead and scale a strategic Quality Assistance model. You will drive a proactive, automation-first culture of quality, enabling development teams to own testing while benefiting from standardized frameworks and a supportive ecosystem. Lead a team of experienced Quality Engineers, supporting their growth and collaborating with various teams to scale best practices.

• Strong hands-on background in test automation (frontend/backend/mobile), CI/CD (e.g. GitHub Actions), and quality observability. You understand how to build, maintain, and scale QA platforms in cloud-native contexts
• You think in systems, not silos. You know how to turn quality from a gatekeeper function into an enabler of speed, confidence, and excellence

• Define and evolve a company-wide Quality Assistance strategy that enables product teams to scale with confidence. Ensure automation and observability are embedded in delivery pipelines
• Lead the standardization and adoption of robust test automation frameworks (e.g. WDIO, Playwright, Selenium, Appium) across frontend, backend, and mobile. Ensure tools are scalable, usable, and widely adopted
• Define key quality metrics, monitor engineering health through tools like Datadog and internal dashboards, and ensure visibility for all stakeholders
• Lead and mentor a team of 4–5 Quality Engineers (including seniors and leads). Provide guidance, coaching, and opportunities for growth in a high-impact environment
• Be a strategic partner to Product, Engineering, DevOps, and Customer-facing teams. Enable better collaboration, faster iteration, and smarter decisions across the organization
