About the role
Quality at Dealpath is evolving with the product, and you will help lead the next stage. Our product is becoming more AI-powered, and our approach to quality is moving with it. We are shifting from a centralized QA team to a model where delivery teams own quality end to end, supported by embedded Quality Engineers. This role helps lead that shift. You will see across our people, process, and systems, choose where to invest next, and bring the Quality Engineers together around a shared vision.

What they're looking for
- Quality team experience: 7+ years in quality engineering, SDET, or similar roles, including leading or guiding a QA team or function. Heads of QA and leaders of QA divisions often do well in this role
- Hands-on technical work: You stay close to the work, from analysis to test design to automation. Experience with Playwright, Cypress, or similar, and one language used in modern SaaS (TypeScript, Python, or Go)
- Evidence-based approach: A record of analyzing a quality process, choosing the metrics that matter, and cutting escaped defects
- Cross-team influence: Experience building adoption of quality practices across Engineering, Product, Design, and Customer Success
- AI fluency: Regular use of tools such as Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or Claude, with a deliberate review step before relying on the output
- Root cause methods: Experience with blameless postmortems and structured RCA, such as 5 Whys, Fishbone, or CAPA

This is a player-coach role. You will stay close to the technical work and use it to coach and guide the Quality Engineers across our delivery teams. As the team comes together, you will shape how it works and grows, and the standards you help set will carry across every delivery team.
This is a full-time role with a hybrid schedule that includes three days a week in the office in San Francisco.
- Find the next gains: Study our people, process, and systems to spot where issues can be caught earlier, then decide what changes, whether that is automation, process, tooling, or people.
- Set the standard: Define test strategy, release criteria, and tooling that every delivery team builds on.
