Distributed
Distributed is a private talent cloud that provides organisations with on-demand access to top-tier software engineering experts.

What's in it for you? Our mission is to create freelance jobs with more benefits than permanent.
About this role
We're partnering with a leading telecommunications organisation to implement a new Network SIEM, essential for network security, meeting regulatory requirements, and improving cybersecurity assessment levels. As the SIEM QA Manager, you'll set the overall direction and strategy for testing the SIEM, from developer to user acceptance, resilience, and all other non-functional requirements. You'll ensure that all testing aligns with the organisation's strategy and meets the highest standards of quality and thoroughness.
Your Responsibilities As our SIEM QA Manager, you will:
Coordinate teams to deliver product quality strategies for a range of service offerings and products. Oversee test strategies for business-critical initiatives, lead the identification of quality risks, and ensure efficient delivery of high-quality outcomes. Spearhead automated testing initiatives, implement new testing methodologies and tools to support agile development, and coordinate the design of test automation solutions. Foster an open collaboration culture, set and evaluate performance metrics for the QA team, and champion emerging trends in QA engineering best practices. Coach and manage talent, implement process improvements, and play a key role in developing capabilities within the software engineering team. Ensure comprehensive testing across all aspects of the SIEM implementation, from developer to user acceptance, including resilience and non-functional requirements.
About You We're looking for passionate technologists who enjoy working in collaborative agile teams. You need to be a clear, concise & engaging communicator with people on your team. We enjoy the big picture and the detail; we want people who excel at both.
