Job Description
Vice President, Enterprise Quality & Automation
Locations: Atlanta, GA, Jacksonville, FL, Fort Worth, TX
About the Role
As Vice President of Enterprise Quality & Automation, you will own the quality our clients and operations actually experience across pharmacy and medical — from requirements and vendor execution through UAT, release readiness, defect management, automation, and AI enablement.
Quality isn't produced by any single team. It takes shape across the entire delivery process. This leader works across Product, Technology, Operations, and vendors to set quality standards, surface risk early, and align everyone toward shared outcomes. The VP will also help define how far this capability should go, from strengthening quality today, to establishing a durable operating model, to evolving quality, automation, and testing into scalable commercial offerings over time. The path is not fully defined by design: we want a leader who is energized by ambiguity and eager to shape the strategy and roadmap rather than inherit them. This role reports into the SVP, Operations, and will build and lead a team of four to six direct reports at the Director level. The leader will help shape how that team is structured and grows over time.
Why Join SS&C
SS&C combines proprietary technology with deep industry expertise to support complex financial and health care operations. Our teams design, implement, and operate solutions that help clients manage data, automate processes, and scale their businesses with confidence.
You will work with industry experts, modern platforms, and evolving technologies, gaining exposure to real-world operational challenges and large-scale enterprise environments.
What Makes This Role Different
A mandate to shape the function. You will build and lead a team of four to six and shape its structure and operating model as the strategy takes shape. A rare chance to design a capability rather than inherit one.
Real influence across the enterprise. You are the trusted voice on quality across Product, Technology, Operations, and vendors; setting standards, surfacing risk, and driving decisions at the executive level, with the visibility and mandate to make quality a priority.
AI and automation are central. These are major parts of the strategy, from predictive quality analytics and defect prediction to release-risk assessment and intelligent automation.
Commercial upside. You will evaluate how these capabilities can evolve into scalable, revenue-generating offerings.
