Job Title: E2E Test Manager

Role Description:

The E2E Test Manager will provide end-to-end testing leadership for a high-priority enterprise program

within the Finance / Regulatory Compliance portfolio.

This is not a Scrum Team QA Lead role. The position requires a strong Project/Program Test Manager who

can orchestrate testing across multiple platforms, products, engineering teams, and business

stakeholders while providing program-level governance and executive visibility.

Responsibilities

Lead and manage end-to-end testing for a large-scale enterprise program, spanning multiple

platforms, products, engineering teams, and business stakeholders.

Establish the overall E2E testing strategy, governance model, test approach, milestones, entry/exit

criteria, and execution framework for the program.

Partner with Platform, Engineering, Product, Business, and QA leaders to coordinate testing activities and ensure alignment across interconnected workstreams. Create, own, and maintain a holistic integrated testing schedule, including test preparation, environment readiness, data readiness, execution cycles, defect remediation, regression testing, and release milestones. Track testing milestones, deliverables, dependencies, and critical-path activities across participating teams and proactively address schedule risks. Develop comprehensive Program Test Plans and Test Strategies, identifying appropriate testing methodologies, tooling, frameworks, environments, and reporting mechanisms. Own program-level test readiness assessments and ensure cross-functional teams are prepared for planned testing cycles and releases. Establish and facilitate defect triage and management processes, partnering with Engineering, Product, QA, and Production teams to prioritize defects and drive critical issues to resolution ahead of releases. Maintain a strong understanding of production and QA/testing processes, serving as the central coordination point between teams for E2E testing activities. Identify and manage cross-platform testing dependencies, risks, issues, assumptions, and blockers, ensuring appropriate mitigation and escalation. Own and maintain testing inputs into the overall E2E project roadmap, integrated project plan, RAID, milestones, and executive reporting. Lead recurring Program Test Syncs, readiness reviews, defect triage sessions, and other cross-functional testing governance forums. Create comprehensive Program Test Summaries, dashboards, scorecards, and executive-level reporting covering test execution, pass/fail trends, defect status, readiness, risks, dependencies, and overall testing health. Prepare and deliver biweekly and monthly executive leadership updates, including BUR reporting and other program governance forums. Present testing status, risks, decisions, and recommendations effectively to VP-level and senior leadership audiences, translating detailed testing information into concise executive insights. Drive accountability across participating teams for testing commitments, deliverables, defect resolution, and milestone completion. Support the scaling and coordination of QA/testing teams across fast-paced enterprise

environments and multiple concurrent workstreams. Leverage tools such as Rally/Jira for milestone, execution, defect, dependency, and program-level reporting. Coordinate testing activities involving cloud-based platforms such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform, where applicable. Ensure testing activities appropriately address Finance, Risk, Regulatory, and Compliance requirements, controls, and program commitments. Preferred Experience & Qualifications Demonstrated experience managing large-scale E2E testing programs or complex enterprise initiatives. Strong Project/Program Management capabilities, with the ability to manage testing across multiple platforms and organizations rather than within a single Scrum team. Proven experience developing and executing enterprise-level test strategies, test plans, integrated schedules, and testing governance. Strong experience with defect management, triage, release readiness, dependency management, and risk management. Proven ability to create executive dashboards, program test summaries, and leadership presentations. Strong executive communication skills with experience presenting to VP-level and senior leadership. Experience with Rally and/or Jira reporting and dashboards. Familiarity with AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, or other cloud platforms. Experience working within Finance, Regulatory, Risk, or Compliance portfolios is highly desirable. Prior American Express experience and familiarity with Amex technology/program management processes is a plus."
