About the role

Sound Transit seeks a Chief Quality & Audit Officer to shape strategic quality and internal audit across the agency. You will lead a high-performing team, align with the CEO and Board, and drive continuous improvement while ensuring compliance with federal, state, and agency standards. The role requires extensive leadership, risk management, and public-sector governance experience, with a focus on transforming processes and promoting a culture of quality. Hybrid work in Seattle is available.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
