About the Position

We are seeking a Technical Test Manager SAP to join our team in a remote role based in Romania.

The Technical Test Manager SAP will be responsible for owning validation across SAP implementation, rollout, migration, enhancement, and transformation activities.

Responsibilities

• Define and maintain a risk-based test approach across SAP implementation, rollout, migration, enhancement, and transformation activities.
• Enforce entry and exit criteria, Definition of Ready / Done, and sign-off checkpoints with stakeholders.
• Build and maintain the test suite covering process variants, integrations, controls, and non-functional aspects.
• Ensure traceability from business requirements through test scenarios and evidence to acceptance decisions.
• Plan, schedule, and run test cycles across System Integration Testing (SIT), End-to-end Testing, User Acceptance Testing (UAT), and Non-functional Testing.
• Coordinate process and system teams together with business SMEs for execution and formal sign-off.
• Create, update, and execute manual and automated test cases.
• Consolidate test status and escalate at the technical program level.
• Lead defect management and triage, covering severity, ownership, SLA, root cause, and retest.
• Drive cross-team resolution to closure and remove blockers impacting cycle progress.
• Enforce the test data strategy (synthetic versus masked production data, provisioning, refresh, privacy, and compliance) and confirm data readiness per cycle.
• Integrate non-functional testing into the cycle plan: performance, security, and authorization, failover, batch, and throughput, usability.
• Track test KPIs (coverage, pass rate, severity mix, MTTR, defect leakage) and enforce the reporting cadence towards PMO and sponsors.
• Align with Business Process Owners, Engineering Leadership, and SI/partners on scope, readiness, and sign-off.
• Surface quality risks with clear business impact and ensure the leadership has a transparent, decision-ready view of testing progress.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering, information systems, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
• 6–10+ years in testing/QA, including 3+ years managing test cycles
• Proven Test Manager experience in SAP ERP (S/4HANA, BW/Analytics, CPI/PO)
• Proven experience orchestrating SIT, E2E, and UAT with partners and business teams
• Strong defect triage leadership across cross-functional teams
• Deep understanding of business process value streams (O2C, P2P, H2R, R2R) and integration points (APIs, middleware, jobs)
• Strong command of test management and ALM tools and requirement traceability practices
• Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and risk reporting to senior leadership
• Experience working with System Integrators and complex vendor ecosystems
• Experience with test automation tools
• Experience with POS, e-commerce, selling, and logistics systems
• Functional leadership: Leads and aligns Business Process Owners, Engineering Leadership, SAP CoE, and System Integrators to drive coherent decisions
• Clear communication: Translates testing, readiness, and quality topics into clear, decision-ready messages
• Judgement and decision support: Balances risk, readiness, and delivery pressure to enable confident decisions
• Clarity and structure: Brings order, discipline, and transparency to complex, ambiguous environments
• Proactive risk mindset: Anticipates issues early and escalates with options, not just problems
• Pragmatism and resilience: Operates effectively under pressure, ambiguity, and tight timelines
• Outcome orientation: Focuses on business validation and readiness, not process for its own sake
