  • Extensive experience providing expert-level leadership and strategic guidance for high-impact software quality assurance projects, managing teams of quality engineers, establishing quality standards, and driving continuous improvement in testing strategies.
  • Deep technical expertise in SAP Solution Manager (SolMan), SAP Focused Build, or modern application lifecycle management tools such as Jira, Azure DevOps, and Micro Focus ALM/Quality Center; proven experience in ERP implementation programs or projects; and comprehensive understanding of testing frameworks and tools suited for enterprise ERP systems.
  • Expertise in recommending quality assurance technologies and tools for business transformation, with advanced systems-thinking and analytical reasoning to identify systemic quality issues, future risks, and strategic improvement opportunities.
  • Strong communication, negotiation, and matrix-management skills, with demonstrated ability to navigate complex stakeholder networks, manage conflicts, drive executive consensus on quality standards, and challenge project deployment timelines when quality is at risk.

Responsibilities

  • Provide expert-level leadership and strategic guidance for high-impact or complex quality assurance projects; develop and implement Quality Engineering best practices across initiatives; ensure consistency, test traceability, and alignment with enterprise standards; lead quality analysis efforts; guide less experienced Quality Engineers; and provide oversight and quality assurance to ensure testing purpose, scope, cohesion, traceability, and product value.
  • Own the master version of the ASPIRE Test Methodology and ensure each process update is pre-validated in alignment with CSV and Quality teams before rollout. Author technical documentation, including standard operating procedures, work instructions, and user guides.
  • Lead analysis of complex and strategic software quality problems; define quality assurance scope; drive root cause analysis for critical defects spanning organizational boundaries; elicit and analyze stakeholder quality needs; influence business stakeholders on product quality and release readiness; define strategic testing solution scope; manage complexity; and drive consensus on quality standards and release criteria.
  • Recommend quality assurance technologies and tools for business transformation and provide solutions to complex quality challenges.
  • Ensure all test phases, including SAT, UAT, and RT, start on time according to the global release calendar. Track testing metrics, defect burn-down rates, and resource allocation to meet deadlines. Author and present Test Summary Reports to stakeholders, providing a quality and go-live readiness verdict.
  • Act as the lead subject matter expert for Testing during internal and external quality audits and ensure testing records withstand detailed scrutiny. Ensure GBPOs understand scope and provide timely Test Plan approvals.
  • Audit the ASPIRE lifecycle to identify friction points or missing controls; design, pilot, and deploy testing workflows, templates, and frameworks to address gaps; and evaluate and streamline standard operating procedures and work instructions while maintaining compliance.
  • Direct and mentor a small support team assisting with reporting and SolMan updates. Ensure programs and projects follow the overall test strategy. Manage deviations from the ASPIRE methodology so they are risk-assessed, documented, and defensible. Advise project teams on complex testing requirements while maintaining delivery speed.
