This role partners closely with Finance, IT, Purchasing and impacted business stakeholders to drive integrated test and go-live plans, manage cross-workstream dependencies, and mitigate risks to ensure successful system launches.
- Own and maintain integrated deployment plans across multiple waves, cutover runbooks, and go-live criteria aligned to the RTP roadmap.
- Partner with testing teams to align SIT/UAT outcomes to deployment readiness; ensure defect disposition and go/no-go inputs are documented and tracked (e.g., via JIRA).

- Coordinate go-live communications and stakeholder enablement (deployment calendars, blackout windows, known impacts, and support paths) to ensure operational readiness.
- Maintain deployment reporting artifacts (readiness scorecards, cutover status, RAID logs) and provide timely updates into PMO reporting cadences, surfacing risks/issues early with actionable recommendations.
- Standardize and continuously improve deployment and cutover playbooks, templates, and governance to increase repeatability and reduce go-live risk across deployment phases.
