• Coordinate test execution activities across internal teams (Technology, Operations, Performance, Accounting, Compliance) and external vendors.
• Manage cross-program testing dependencies, environment readiness, data availability, and sequencing constraints.
• Provide oversight and support to ensure teams are tracing test cases back to requirements, with traceability evidenced.
• Responsible for coordination of system data refreshes, including meticulous planning and communication of the timing, impacts, and dependencies of refreshes across intersecting projects.

• Oversee test execution progress, including test case readiness, execution status, defect triage, severity assessment, and remediation tracking.
• Facilitate daily/weekly touchpoints to manage testing progress, risks, and issue resolution.
• Ensure accurate, executive-level testing status reporting, highlighting risks, impacts, and mitigation plans.

• Coordinate and oversee data validation, reconciliation, and parallel production testing to ensure accuracy, completeness, and consistency of calculated results.
• Ensure appropriate sign‑off from business and operational stakeholders prior to releases or cutovers.

• Act as the testing coordination point across third‑party vendors and internal delivery teams, aligning expectations, timelines, and deliverables.
• Support testing‑related aspects of vendor engagements,…
