  • Coordinate cross-functional testing schedules, dependencies, environments, and test data requirements across systems and vendors.
  • Ensure all testing practices align with regulatory, security, risk, and audit requirements.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree in a technical, business, or related field.
  • 8+ years of experience in UAT leadership, integrated testing, end-to-end testing, quality assurance, or related disciplines.
  • Experience designing and executing UAT and integrated test scenarios across business-critical workflows.
  • Experience coordinating testing activities across a matrixed organization and managing cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Experience developing deep working knowledge of business applications, platforms, and operational workflows.
  • MBA or relevant Master’s degree (preferred).
