QA Lead / Test Manager at Tezza Business Solutions Ltd

Role Purpose 

• Owns end-to-end execution of System Integration Testing (SIT) for the UBA Mobile Banking App and holds broader quality-oversight responsibility across the full programme, including phases executed by other teams and partner organisations. 

Key Responsibilities 

• Own the Master Test Strategy and keep it current as programme understanding evolves. 
• Chair daily defect triage; own defect severity and root-cause classification discipline. 
• Maintain full traceability from source requirement through test case to defect resolution. 
• Deliver weekly status reporting with RAG status and top risks to the CTO and Product Owner. 
• Lead formal sign-off against Exit Criteria before User Acceptance Testing (UAT) begins. 
• Lead UAT execution across business participants from partner organisations, via a dedicated UAT Coordinator. 
• Provide quality oversight of programme phases outside direct execution — customer experience review, migration, performance/load testing, security penetration testing, compliance checks, environment stabilisation, and go-live. 
• Own selection and ongoing validation of vendor-sourced specialist roles (security, architecture and code review, performance, DevSecOps). 
• Chair a weekly cross-phase coordination sync with all phase owners. 

Required Qualifications & Experience 

• Proven track record leading QA/test management for digital banking, fintech, or large-scale financial-services platforms. 
• Experience with concurrent/continuous testing models — testing alongside active development, not gated behind a code-freeze milestone. 
• Demonstrated ability to own both hands-on execution and cross-team quality oversight simultaneously. 
• Experience managing vendor/contractor relationships for specialist technical roles. 

Required Skills & Tools:

• Test management, banking/fintech domain knowledge, stakeholder communication, defect-tracking tooling administration (e.g. Jira), release governance.
