Job description

Position Overview
We are seeking an experienced SAP IS-U Test Lead to support a multi-year Customer Information System (CIS) implementation for a public utility. This individual will establish the test strategy, develop test plans and scripts, and lead testing across SAP IS-U customer and utility processes and their integrations. The ideal candidate has led testing on a large-scale SAP IS-U utility implementation—not solely production support or a general SAP ERP program.

Required Qualifications
• 5+ years of SAP testing experience, including at least 2 years leading testing for a large-scale implementation or transformation program.
• Direct experience leading testing on an SAP IS-U implementation for a regulated electric, gas, or water utility.
• Demonstrated hands-on ownership of test strategy, test plans, test scenarios, and test scripts—not only test execution or production support.
• Strong understanding of SAP IS-U customer, meter-to-cash, billing, and payment processes and their integration points.
• Experience leading SIT, UAT, regression testing, defect triage, and business sign-off across multiple workstreams.
• Proficiency with Azure DevOps (ADO) and ADO Test Plans, including test-case management, execution tracking, defect reporting, and dashboards.
• Strong communication and leadership skills, with the ability to coordinate utility business stakeholders, implementation partners, and technical teams.

Preferred Qualifications
• Experience with SAP S/4HANA for Utilities or an SAP IS-U modernization program.
• Experience testing AMI/MDM-to-SAP IS-U data flows, data conversion, and reconciliation.
• Familiarity with both waterfall and agile delivery methods.
• Experience supporting phased deployments and multiple test cycles within a multi-year utility program.
