• Define and approve testing approaches aligned with delivery methodologies and release schedules.
• Ensure all business, technology, and data teams establish and maintain detailed test plans.
• Validate that future-state business processes are tested end-to-end, including integrations, reporting, controls, and data conversion activities.
• Ensure testing reflects operational scenarios, period-end processing, and regulatory reporting requirements.
• Define and manage quality gates, entry and exit criteria, and readiness assessments for all testing phases including SIT, UAT, operational readiness, cutover rehearsal, go-live, and hyper care.

• Lead test governance activities, including planning cadence, RAID management, issue escalation, and stakeholder coordination.
• Serve as the escalation point for issues impacting testing outcomes and drive resolution efforts.
• Deliver senior-level status reporting, including testing confidence levels, risks, and business impact assessments.
• Ensure testing standards, tools, processes, and evidence requirements are applied consistently across teams and vendors.
• Oversee consolidated metrics reporting including coverage, execution progress, pass rates, defect trends, severity, aging, and reopen rates.
• Provide independent assurance that testing outcomes demonstrate operational readiness and not solely task completion.
• Maintain standardized defect management processes including triage, prioritization, root cause analysis, validation, regression assessment, retesting, and closure.
• Ensure unresolved defects and workarounds are appropriately documented, risk assessed, and approved through governance channels.
• Support audit and controls compliance by maintaining audit-ready evidence and documentation standards.
