- Define and lead Setpoint’s testing strategy, establishing standards and best practices to ensure reliability across the stack
- Track and categorize issues that negatively impact customers, creating visibility and a roadmap for prevention
- Partner with engineers, product managers, and support teams to catch errors early and drive fixes
- Stress-test business logic and reporting to account for customer data permutations and edge cases
