About Job

Execution Ownership

● Act as the primary owner for the team's overall validation execution and adherence to CAT operating standards.

● Review all team Jira tasks daily to confirm they are on track, correctly scoped, and will meet committed deadlines.

● Escalate risks and blockers early with a clear recovery plan — not just a status.

Planning & Allocation

● Break down product validation plans into taskified work: clear title, single assignee, detailed description (what to test, how, expected outcome), firm deadline, accurate status.

● Define and assign owners for all test areas; balance coverage against headcount and lab/DUT capacity.

● Maintain per-build test case trackers (one tracker per build — no mixing across builds).

Standards & Process

● Enforce the unified test case naming format and standardized Jira tagging

● Drive high-quality bug reporting: clear, reproducible, triaged, and actively followed up through verification and closure.

● Contribute to Jira dashboards for task completion rate, bug volume, bug verification status, and on-time completion rate.

People & Communication

● Coach team members toward absolute ownership: each owner is the single point of contact for their task and can answer questions directly without deferring to leads.

● Run regular reviews and Month-over-Month (MoM) tracking of team work and performance metrics.

● Report into and support the US CAT Team Lead; provide clear, timely written updates to cross-functional partners.

Staying safe while you apply

Never pay to apply, interview or accept an offer. ROLIVA never asks you for payment to apply to a job.
Apply only through the official “Apply on the employer’s site” button, on the employer’s own site, and check that a recruiter’s email uses that employer’s own domain rather than a free email address.
Be cautious of an offer made with no real interview, or pressure to decide quickly or share financial details early.
