You are a strategic thinker, problem solver, self-starter, and well-organized individual who can effectively handle multiple tasks simultaneously. Your primary responsibility is to manage the System test team for the entire Gigamon R&D team, overseeing the Embedded, Cloud, and GigaSMART product portfolios. You will lead and ensure the delivery of quality software and hardware releases, managing resources efficiently to meet project schedules. Your role involves cultivating a high-performing team, attracting and retaining top talent, and collaborating closely with development, QA, architecture, customer support, and product line management teams. As a key member of the Engineering management staff, you will contribute to the vision and strategy of continuous integration, improved development/QA processes, and enhancing the quality and productivity of test functions. You will be responsible for defining and validating enterprise use cases, system tests, regressions, longevity, and scale to ensure timely and quality system test deliverables. Your tasks include driving continuous improvements in System Test cycles, optimizing runtime, improving coverage, and championing product automation with an automation-first methodology. You will work closely with Development and DevTest teams to integrate test cases into the system test and Functional test suite, ensuring timely test case execution with a focus on customer quality. Additionally, you will handle field escalations, collaborate with support and development teams to troubleshoot and reproduce field-reported escalation issues, and ensure efficient test case progress and bug fix rates. Understanding the hardware and software architecture of products and their implications on feature and system testing is crucial for this role. In terms of requirements, you should have 12 to 15 years of relevant industry experience with a track record of shipping core-networking products for enterprise and service provider markets.

You should have the ability to handle loosely defined goals, organize, delegate, and deliver effectively on large and complex programs. Working effectively with remote teams, thriving in a fast-paced environment, and managing major software release deliveries are key aspects of this role. Conflict resolution skills, excellent interpersonal and communication skills, and the ability to mentor, coach, facilitate, and lead change in a technical team are important traits. A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering is required, while a Master's degree is strongly preferred.,
