The opportunity

Are you ready to challenge the status quo in Quality Assurance? At Docplanner, QA is not about gatekeeping—it’s about enabling. We don’t believe QA should be testers or “quality police”; instead, we see them as mentors, advocates, and builders of tools and frameworks that empower engineers to deliver high-quality products with startup speed.

This is a rare opportunity to lead a transformational journey across our organization. As the Compliance and Quality Assurance Director, you will redefine how quality is perceived and executed. Your mission will be to embed quality into the DNA of our teams, driving a mindset shift where engineers take ownership of quality, supported by world-class tools and systems built by the QA team.

If you are passionate about creating scalable solutions, fostering collaboration, and shaping a modern QA culture that focuses on speed, impact, and excellence—this role is for you.

Why join us?

• Make a Lasting Impact: Redefine QA in a fast-paced, global tech organization.
• Innovate Without Boundaries: Influence at the highest levels to transform QA into a revenue generator and enabler of innovation.
• Be a Game-Changer: Lead the future of privacy assurance and compliance, ensuring our systems are both secure and scalable.
