The Role

Arrive is seeking a high-impact, visionary Director of Quality Assurance - Transport to establish and lead an end-to-end global Quality Assurance (QA) program across our Transport division. To execute our ambitious 2027 revenue plan and support multi-million-dollar global deployments, Arrive must guarantee that our mission-critical solutions—encompassing our Account-Based Ticketing (ABT) back-office software, open-payment (cEMV) middleware, driver consoles, validators, and Ticket Vending Machine (TVM) hardware—operate at the highest reliability standards in the public transit industry.

Reporting directly to the Chief of Staff, this critical leadership position will design, implement, and enforce rigorous quality controls across the entire product lifecycle—from component sourcing and hardware manufacturing through software development, system integration, factory acceptance testing (FAT), site acceptance testing (SAT), and field installation. Operating at the convergence of unattended station hardware, cloud SaaS middleware, and secure payment processing, you will build a proactive culture of quality and risk mitigation across global teams. In this role, you will collaborate with key cross-functional stakeholders across Product, R&D, Supply Chain, Sales, and Customer Delivery, while serving as an authoritative partner to external transit agency auditors and evaluation committees.
