• Verify adherence of deliverables to TNPA quality standards and provide sign-off recommendations.

• Contribute to continuous improvement of QA processes, standards and templates within the SAP team.

• Liaise with Business Analysts, developers, functional consultants and the Project Manager on quality matters, keeping stakeholders informed of risks and issues.

Position Challenges

• Ensuring adequate test coverage across integrated SAP modules within compressed delivery timelines.

• Securing representative test data and stable test environments for reliable results.

Decision Making

• Recommend acceptance or rejection of deliverables against defined quality criteria.

Qualifications and Experience

• Bachelor’s degree / National Diploma in Information Technology, Computer Science or a related discipline.

• Software-testing certification (e.g. ISTQB) is advantageous.

• 5 years’ software quality-assurance / testing experience, including experience testing SAP solutions.

• Knowledge of both waterfall and agile testing methodologies.

Skills Required

• Strong knowledge of test planning, test-case design and defect management.
