  • Develop test scripts, coordinate defect management, and ensure resolution before go-live. 
  • Manage release calendars in collaboration with IT and business stakeholders. 
  • Monitor post-implementation performance and user adoption rates. 
  • Identify recurring system issues and drive long-term corrective actions. 

Data Quality & Analytics

Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
