Description

The Agentic Testing Manager will lead our Quality Assurance (QA) function within the IT team at TransRe.

Responsibilities required of this role include, but are not limited to:

  • Assessing the current state of testing operations and establishing target maturity goals; identifying optimal approaches such as agentic testing patterns, AI-assisted test generation, and automated validation loops to close gaps and drive measurable improvement.
  • Overseeing all QA activities across the portfolio, including test planning, execution, defect management, and release readiness, ensuring teams are equipped with the right tools, techniques, and automation capabilities.
  • Identifying opportunities to introduce agentic testing agents across key stages of the SDLC from requirements validation and test case generation to regression execution and incident detection; and leading proof of concept pilots to prove out and scale these approaches.
  • Providing leadership, mentorship, and direction to QA engineers, developers, and offshore team leads, fostering a culture of continuous improvement, automation-first thinking, and engineering excellence.
  • Engaging with business and technology leadership to identify, quantify, and communicate the impact of quality issues, and translate strategic priorities into a coherent QA and testing agenda.
  • Defining and implementing quality metrics, executing regular audits, and monitoring defect trends, root cause patterns, and test coverage to benchmark and continuously improve quality outcomes.
  • Gathering, synthesizing, and presenting testing metrics, quality trends, and transformation progress to key stakeholders and senior leadership on a regular basis.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in QA engineering and leadership within a technology organization, including direct management of QA teams
  • Demonstrated experience leading a QA or testing transformation including tool selection, process redesign, and organizational change management
  • Deep expertise across the software testing lifecycle: test strategy, automation frameworks, defect management, and release readiness
  • Hands-on experience with, or strong working knowledge of agentic AI frameworks, LLM-assisted tooling, or AI-driven test generation (e.g., LangChain, AutoGen, Copilot-integrated pipelines, or comparable platforms)
  • Preference for experience in the (re)insurance industry or financial services sector
