Test Lead

Are you passionate about quality, strategy, and leadership?

MSWA is seeking a dynamic
Test Lead
to champion testing excellence across our transformation projects and process improvement initiatives. In this pivotal role, you'll craft and implement robust test strategies, lead and mentor testing teams, and ensure our software meets the highest standards of performance and reliability.

�� A Day in the Life: Test Lead @ MSWA
Start your day by aligning with cross-functional teams, setting priorities, and guiding testing efforts across transformation and improvement projects. You're not just managing tasks—you're shaping strategy and driving quality outcomes.

Midday, you're hands-on: refining test plans, developing cases, and executing tests that ensure our software meets the highest standards. You collaborate with stakeholders, manage defects, and lead triage discussions to keep everything running smoothly.

Afternoon brings opportunities to mentor teams, run workshops, and explore automation to boost efficiency. You wrap up by reporting progress, updating documentation, and celebrating wins—big and small.

At MSWA, every day is a chance to lead with purpose, innovate with impact, and build a culture of quality.

If you're ready to make a meaningful impact and thrive in a collaborative, purpose-driven environment, we'd love to hear from you.
