This is a Senior QA Lead / Test Lead role with a strong hands-on component. If you're sourcing candidates, I would prioritize people with IFS Cloud / ERP implementation testing, Azure DevOps, integration/data migration testing, and experience building test strategy rather than candidates who are primarily QA managers.
Key requirements to look for
- 10+ years QA/testing experience, with recent QA Lead experience
- Strong ERP implementation testing experience; IFS Cloud is a major plus
- Hands-on test strategy and test plan development
- Functional, integration, end-to-end, regression, UAT, and data migration testing
- Experience testing ERP configurations and business processes
- Azure DevOps – test cases, traceability, execution evidence, defects, dashboards/reporting
- Experience translating requirements/business processes into test scenarios and executable test cases
- Experience with API/integration testing
- Data migration validation/reconciliation
- Role-based access/security testing exposure
- Experience guiding/mentoring junior or existing QA resources
- Ability to determine manual vs. automation coverage pragmatically
- Automation experience; CTAP is a plus
- K6/performance testing experience is a plus
- Experience supporting UAT readiness and production readiness
- Comfortable working in Agile/Kanban and evolving requirements
- Strong communication with project leadership, SMEs, developers, and business stakeholders
