ELEKS Quality Assurance Office is looking for a Test Manager in Argentina

ABOUT PROJECT

Our customer is among the top 5 health insurance companies in the US. The company serves over 15 million members across five states and employs over 20,000 people.

The customer is dedicated to expanding access to high-quality, cost-effective health care and equipping their members with information and tools to make the best health care decisions for themselves and their families. We help our customers achieve their goals by developing and supporting IT tools. Numerous applications and APIs are both for internal and external use.

Teams use agile methodologies like Scrum, Kanban, and XP. The majority follow TDD and pair programming.

This is a client-facing Test Manager role that blends project/people management with a QA background — we’re looking for someone who has grown from a Test Manager/QA leadership path into project management, and can bring both skill sets to the table. This is a lighter-weight PM function: focused on risk and people management rather than budgets, EVM, or heavy PMO tooling.

REQUIREMENTS

Solid background in software testing/QA, ideally having worked as a Test Manager or QA Lead before moving into project management
Experience operating as a Test Manager on the client side, working directly within an engineering team
Practical project/people management experience — specifically around risk management and team/people leadership, rather than formal PMO discipline (no budget management, EVM, or similar heavy PM tooling required)
Strong soft skills: stakeholder communication, conflict resolution, cross-team coordination
Comfortable working in a fast-paced, immediate-start engagement

OPTIONAL REQUIREMENTS

Experience with both manual and automation testing backgrounds
ISTQB or equivalent QA/Test Management certification
Prior experience in healthcare or other regulated industry environments
Familiarity with Agile/Scrum ceremonies from both a QA and PM perspective

RESPONSIBILITIES

Act as Test Manager on the client side, embedded within the engineering team
Manage project risks and coordinate mitigation efforts across the team
Lead and support people management within the engagement — mentoring, performance alignment, and team coordination
Bridge communication between QA/engineering functions and project stakeholders
Support planning and status reporting from a lightweight PM perspective

WHAT YOU WILL GET WITH ELEKS

Close cooperation with a customer
Challenging tasks
Competence development
Ability to influence project technologies
Team of professionals
Dynamic environment with low level of bureaucracy
