Responsibilities
• Own the quality strategy for AlphaSense's company reference data, built on quality by design and automation by default. • Close test coverage gaps on our critical workflows: ingesting provider data, matching records, keeping identifiers stable over time, and delivering entity data and change events to the product teams that rely on them. • Define what "correct" means for company data, and build the golden datasets, labeled samples, and automated checks that prove it, including measuring match precision and recall and the tradeoff between false merges and false splits. • Set the quality measures and release standards the team uses to ship with confidence. • Build and grow scalable automation across our data, API, and event-driven interfaces, and decide what belongs at the unit, component, API, and E2E layers. • Anticipate data lifecycle risks such as provider data drift, schema changes, and late or conflicting records, and build regression coverage for them. • Partner with developers on test planning for new features, so automation is ready as the code is. • Use production signals to focus effort where it reduces the most risk to customers. • Bring AI into how the team designs, maintains, and triages tests. • Coach engineers and influence across teams to raise the quality bar.
