The candidate should drive continuous process improvement, and work effectively with cross-functional operational and development teams to solve problems and implement new solutions.

Key job responsibilities

  • Deliver the solution / system test plan, creating realistic, effective, and efficient data validation plans.
  • Leverage product and operations knowledge to influence the Product Requirements and Functional Requirements early in the development process.
  • Establish and develop relationships with Warehouse Operations early in the launch process and utilize these relationships to develop strategic partnerships throughout launch.
  • Assist the training manager in organizing, delivering and improving the relevant product training materials.
  • Up to 35% travel is expected.
