The QA & Testing Lead reports directly to the Vice President, PMO, serving as the foundational architect for our IT PMO Quality Assurance capability. As an autonomous, strategic individual contributor, this role owns the end-to-end testing charter: establishing test governance, quality gates, automation frameworks, and toolchains across enterprise initiatives. You will not just manage testing; you will define how quality is built and verified across enterprise systems, third-party integrations, and digital platforms.

Key Responsibilities

• QA Capability & Framework Design: Design, build, and roll out the enterprise QA strategy, operating model, and test governance policies from the ground up across the PMO.
• Quality Gates & Entry/Exit Criteria: Institutionalize consistent quality gates (SIT, UAT, Performance, Regression, Cutover/Hypercare verification) across Waterfall and Agile delivery tracks.
• Test Toolchain Architecture: Evaluate, select, and integrate standard enterprise test toolsets (e.g., Jira/Xray, Azure DevOps) into CI/CD pipelines and PMO workflows.
• UAT & Business Partner Enablement: Establish standardized playbooks, scripts, and defect-severity triage workflows to coach business SME teams through User Acceptance Testing.
