  • Define test strategy, schedule, and deliverables, and monitor progress to ensure successful test execution.
  • Track and report on testing progress, ensuring that issues are identified, documented, and resolved in a timely manner.
  • Provide feedback and recommendations for improvements in testing processes and methods to ensure high-quality IVR system implementation.
  • Work collaboratively with project managers, business analysts, and other stakeholders to ensure testing aligns with project timelines and deliverables.
  • Assist in the identification and management of risks related to testing, ensuring mitigation strategies are in place.
  • Participate in all phases of the testing lifecycle, including test planning, execution, defect tracking, and test reporting.
  • Create test documentation, including test cases, test scripts, and test plans, and ensure they are aligned with business objectives and system requirements.

Experience :

  • 7 – 10 years of testing experience, with 3 – 5 years’ experience leading a team of testers.
  • Nuance and Genesys IVR testing experience preferred.
  • Experience on at least two large transformation programs in a testing role.
