You will report to the VP Engineering and partner closely with Engineering Managers, Engineering Leads, Product Managers, Delivery Managers, Architects, Site Reliability Engineers and senior leaders across Software, Mobile Core, Networks and Infrastructure.

The existing Test Engineers in the Software group will report to this role and remain embedded in product squads, while you build a broader Quality Engineering capability that supports all Engineering domains. This role is not about creating a separate testing function that owns quality on behalf of teams. It is about setting the strategy, standards, practices, tooling and measures that enable every Engineering team to improve release confidence, reduce escaped defects, strengthen auditability and increase the capability to deliver system changes quickly and safely.

Success will be measured by visible improvements in quality outcomes and delivery flow, including reduced rework and manual regression effort, improved test coverage and release readiness, better visibility of escaped defects and quality-related incidents, and stronger evidence for audit and governance across Engineering. This role is focused on: Engineering-wide quality strategy: Defining and implementing a clear Quality Engineering vision, roadmap and set of standards that can be applied consistently across software , mobile core, networks and infrastructure while respecting the specialist needs of each domain.

Fast and safe delivery: Working with Senior Engineering Leaders, i mproving the ability of Engineering teams to release changes frequently and confidently by embedding quality practices into discovery, design, build, test, release and operational readiness activities. Consistent standards and evidence: Establishing shared expectations for test strategy, acceptance criteria, automation, regression, release readiness, test evidence and quality gates so that teams can demonstrate what has been tested and why it is safe to proceed .

Quality capability and community: Leading and developing Test Engineers, building a clear career path and creating a professional Quality Engineering community across Wireless Logic and the European operating companies. Quality metrics and continuous improvement: Creating transparent measures for escaped defects, defect trends, change failure rate, regression cycle time, test coverage, release confidence and quality-related incidents, then using those measures to drive practical improvement.

Cross-domain quality leadership: Extending quality practices beyond Software Development into Infrastructure, Mobile Core and Networks by working with domain experts to introduce appropriate test approaches, scenario testing and release controls. What a Head of Quality Engineering Does Define and own the Quality Engineering strategy: Create, publish and evolve the Engineering-wide Quality Engineering vision, strategy and implementation roadmap, ensuring it supports the wider Technology strategy and the need for highly available connectivity services.
