About IEX 

IEX (IEX Group, Inc.) is an exchange operator and technology company dedicated to innovating for performance in capital markets. Founded in 2012, IEX launched a new kind of securities exchange in 2016 that combines a transparent business model and unique architecture designed to protect investors. Today, IEX applies its proprietary technology and experience to drive performance across asset classes, serve investors, and advocate for transparent and competitive markets. 

About the Role 

IEX is seeking a senior Quality Engineering leader to scale and lead a best-in-class testing and automation program across our equities and options exchanges. 

Our QA function has grown quickly to support expanding product and platform capabilities. While we’ve made progress, much of our testing remains manual or partially automated, and our tooling and environments are not yet standardized across asset classes. We are looking for a leader who can unify and elevate our approach — driving a scalable, multi-asset testing strategy that supports continued growth. 

This role will own the end-to-end QA strategy across equities and options, modernize our automation framework, and establish a robust regression environment capable of supporting highly available, production-grade systems. You’ll partner closely with Engineering, Product, Market Operations, and Data teams, and play a critical role in improving reliability, efficiency, and release confidence across the organization. 

What You’ll Do 

• Own and execute the vision for a unified, cross-asset QA and automation strategy across equities and options
