Role Summary and Impact
The Director, Design QA ensures that web applications, user interfaces, and digital experiences are built to the highest standards, aligning with both design specifications and user expectations. This role focuses on identifying, debugging, and resolving design inconsistencies, usability issues, and user experience flaws before they reach production.
Design QA & Issue Identification
* Review digital product implementations to ensure fidelity to design specifications, identifying inconsistencies in layout, typography, spacing, and interaction patterns.
* Conduct manual and automated visual regression testing to detect unintended UI changes across breakpoints and platforms.

* Validate accessibility compliance, ensuring adherence to WCAG standards and best practices.
Debugging & Collaboration
* Work closely with front-end developers to troubleshoot and resolve UI/UX issues, providing detailed feedback and solutions.
* Partner with designers to refine design specifications, ensuring they are clear, implementable, and optimized for real-world usage.
* Collaborate with product managers to prioritize and address critical design issues that impact usability and user satisfaction.
* Establish and maintain documentation of design QA processes, best practices, and known issues for ongoing reference.
Process Improvement & Automation
* Define and implement a robust design QA workflow, integrating automated UI testing tools (e.g., Storybook, Percy, Chromatic) into the development pipeline.
* Advocate for a shift-left testing approach, embedding QA practices earlier in the design and development cycle.
* Continuously refine testing methodologies, leveraging emerging tools and frameworks to improve efficiency and coverage.
* Conduct usability testing sessions to gather real-world insights and validate design decisions.

* Expertise in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and modern front-end frameworks, enabling effective debugging and troubleshooting.
* Proficiency in design tools like Figma, Sketch, or Adobe XD for assessing implementation accuracy.
* Experience with automated testing tools (e.g., Selenium, Cypress, Storybook, Percy, Chromatic) for UI validation.
* Strong understanding of responsive design, accessibility standards (WCAG), and usability best practices.
* Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git) and Agile development workflows.
