Assist in the planning and execution of software releases to production environments.

Facilitate clear communication between the development team and end-users regarding software issues, feature requests, and resolution timelines.

Organize, manage, and oversee the User Acceptance Testing (UAT) process by coordinating with key users, providing test scenarios, and gathering critical feedback.

Act as a liaison with the corporate IT Department to transition long-term support responsibility and to collaborate on infrastructure or environment-related issues affecting the software.

C. Project and Process Management

Administer and maintain the department's Jira project documentation, including creating and managing workflows, configuring boards, and ensuring data integrity.

Prioritize incoming bug reports and feature requests from users, translating them into well-defined Jira tickets for the development team.

Monitor project progress within Jira and assist the department manager in reporting on development status and QA metrics.

Develop and maintain documentation related to QA processes, testing procedures, and initial user support guides.
