Product
Our mission at Avelios is to build the leading software platform for the data-driven digitization of hospitals and patient care. To do so, we have built a modular software platform that digitizes and optimizes workflows in hospitals with cutting-edge technology in a user-friendly way. With our software, we enable hospitals, doctors & nurses to provide their patients with the best possible care.
We are growing fast and want to keep expanding our team and business to fundamentally digitize healthcare for the better. We appreciate different backgrounds and see diversity as one of our strengths.
You will own the operational and quality backbone behind how we plan, test, and ship our software. This includes ensuring cross-team alignment on scope and timing, maintaining release readiness across Product, Engineering, QA, DevOps, and Project teams, and enforcing a disciplined QA operating model that ensures our software is safe, reliable, and audit-ready. You will lead and grow the Software Testing team, define testing standards and the testing automation strategy and build the processes that make progress measurable and quality transparent. Your work creates predictability in delivery, strengthens release quality, and surfaces risks early so leadership can act.
Coordinate mid- and long-term release and milestone planning between Project, Product, and Engineering. Align on scope and timing, ensure required inputs (e.g., configurations) arrive on time, and maintain predictable delivery plans that support customer project commitments.
Run end-to-end release readiness and coordination by integrating scope status, testing progress, defects, approvals, release note readiness, and rollout steps into a single source of truth. Drive follow-ups, close gaps, and prepare clear release and deployment information for customer communication.
Lead planned and unplanned release rollouts with DevOps: align rollout windows between DevOps and Project teams/customer, manage capacity and constraints, and ensure rollout tasks are fully prepared and deployment information is communicated on time.
Lead and grow the QA team: manage and develop Software Testers, ensure high-quality test cases and evidence, and partner with Product and Engineering on testing depth, prioritization, and resource needs in alignment with releases and longterm product quality.
Own the end-to-end QA strategy and operating model: define how quality is engineered into the product long-term—not merely how tests are executed today. Establish and govern processes, standards, automation direction, and quality gates; ensure adherence across teams; maintain audit-ready documentation; and introduce the supporting tooling ecosystem for test management, automation, and reporting.
