Hi I'm Abhik, Ashby's Co-Founder and VP of Engineering. Ashby builds software that enables talent teams to run an efficient and delightful hiring process. Our software simplifies and automates complex workflows (like scheduling a candidate) and bundles what are traditionally different software tools into one.
As a result, our software is comprehensive and deep. It covers the feature set of at least four other products. It models the complexity of hiring at the scale of thousands of employees while deeply integrating with other systems like email and calendar. We accomplish much of this by creating reusable building blocks (e.g., a form builder for surveys and application forms) to provide a powerful feature set out-of-the-box while being familiar and easy to use.
Our approach presents some exciting challenges in QA-ing our software. First, it requires a deep understanding of recruiting to empower the creation of QA plans that cover use cases across our wide array of features and the seams between them. Second, it requires QA to be product experts to understand how a change (particularly to a building block) can propagate through our features to identify edge cases.
You will lead our QA team of three QA analysts to help us meet our unique challenges. You will set the larger vision on how QA evolves to reduce regressions while maintaining a high shipping velocity as the product, team, customer base, and customer size grow. Our team has already adopted QA tools (TestRail, Testim) and established some processes and metrics, so you'll inherit a reasonably mature team for its size.
Requirements I'm looking for someone exacting who manages their team with both empathy and rigor. While we're open to folks with different levels of experience (hence the wide compensation range), we have some minimum requirements:
You work remotely in the US or Canada. We prefer folks who can overlap with EMEA time zones, as we will add QA team members in EMEA to support our growing EMEA Engineering team.You've managed a team of at least two QA analysts or engineers. We want someone with great management instincts that have already been tested.You've set a performance standard (e.g., levels, individual and team metrics). This means you've documented a standard, measured that standard, and held your team accountable.You've been integral to capacity planning for a QA team. Our QA team needs to grow, and you'll need to put together an argument about when and where.You've evaluated and implemented software that improves or automates QA processes.You've led QA process changes as an IC or manager with successful outcomes.Why You Shouldn't Apply You are not interested in rolling up your sleeves and helping the team QA. We run a lean team across all departments, and in yours, there will be times when demand for QA outpaces capacity. We also like folks who want to stay close to the work to evaluate methods and processes by doing it occasionally.You don't stay up-to-date on tools and processes for QA. QA is evolving, especially with improvements in machine learning models and their ability to perform monotonous tasks faster and more accurately than humans. Staying up-to-date on the state of the art is essential.You don't believe management needs to be in the details. We believe managers need to monitor their team's work to evaluate and raise their team's performance. Your performance reviews are often filled with details and samples of work to prove areas of excellence or improvement.You don't believe evaluating QA quality and capacity can be driven by analysis and metrics. We need you to be able to measure and forecast demand and capacity to grow the team deliberately.Interview Process At Ashby, our team and interview process want to help you show your best self. We'll dive into past work and simulate working together.
Our interview process is six rounds in the following order:
Recruiter Intro Call - 30mHiring Manager Intro Call - 30m: You and I will chat about your application questions and answer any questions you have about the role.Technical Screen - 30m: We'll send over documentation for a small feature in Ashby and talk live about how you'd approach building a QA plan.Leadership Screen - 60m: You and I will talk through your past experiences managing a team.Technical Take Home - 3h 30m: As a take-home, you build a QA plan for a feature in Ashby and discuss it live with three members of our team.Meet the Team - 2h 45m: You meet folks on the QA and Engineering teams. The sessions are primarily behavioral questions, with one session presenting a product you've worked on in the past to help us understand the depth of your product knowledge.At each round, you'll have an opportunity to ask questions of the team. After the recruiter screen, I will be your main point of contact and prepare you for interviews. If we don't give an offer, we'll provide feedback!
