Catalis is seeking a strategic, execution-focused head of Quality Assurance to establish and lead a centralized, shared services QA organization. Today, QA operates independently within each of our five product verticals, resulting in fragmented processes, inconsistent tooling, and duplicated effort. This role exists to change that.

This leader will be responsible for consolidating these siloed QA teams into a unified shared services model based in India, serving all verticals through standardized processes, common tools, and a single quality vision. Approximately two-thirds of our current QA staff is based in India and one-third in the US; this leader will architect the organizational structure, operating model, and governance frameworks needed to bring these teams together under one cohesive organization.
