Job Responsibilities:

The resource will be responsible for the hardware functionality, configuration, support, maintenance, and availability of all systems used to deliver testing services (our “technology platform”).

Depending on Testing Team workload, the resource will also occasionally be asked to take on Testing Project Manager responsibilities such as the setup, management, and reporting on testing projects, working closely with project managers, technical operations, and language operations team members. Provide project-specific training to testers. Create written reports shared with clients and account management. Plan for and mitigate risk on projects. The workload dedicated to the two sets of responsibilities will fluctuate based on business needs, and the resource is expected to be flexible in this regard.

• Plan project scope, schedule, and resources to ensure fulfillment of our services without errors or deficiencies.
• Create estimated scope of work for future projects, both hours and timeline, based on provided and assumed data. Clearly identify all assumptions and dependencies.
  • Estimations may require creative problem-solving when clients cannot provide accurate inputs.
• Setup and prepare hardware and software testing environment and escalate issues to client contacts.
• Review or create test cases and scripts for testers based on project scope and environment.
• Create reporting dashboards, trackers, and views to manage production and communicate results to customers.
