## Description

We are looking for an experienced and motivated End-to-End Test Lead (he / she / they) who will define, coordinate, and drive end-to-end testing activities for our Connected Services. In this role, you will lead the E2E test approach across In-Car and Out-Car domains, align testing activities with stakeholders inside and outside TME, and ensure release readiness through clear quality governance, risk management, and data-driven reporting. Your responsibilities will include, but are not limited to:

 * Define and maintain the E2E test strategy for In-Car and Out-Car developed features, ensuring alignment with project scope, risk, quality targets, and release milestones.
 * Lead and coordinate E2E test planning, preparation, execution, defect follow-up, and reporting across internal teams, external partners, and global stakeholders.
 * Act as the quality gate owner for E2E testing by defining entry and exit criteria, monitoring test progress, assessing residual risks, and providing release readiness recommendations to management.
 * Review and challenge test coverage, test scenarios, and test results to ensure that customer-relevant use cases, cross-system dependencies, and operational risks are sufficiently validated.
 * Drive defect management by facilitating triage, prioritisation, root-cause follow-up, and escalation of critical issues impacting quality, timing, or customer experience.
 * Provide clear and concise status reporting to senior management, including test coverage, progress, defect trends, risks, blockers, and recommended countermeasures.
 * Identify and implement improvements in E2E testing effectiveness, including standardisation, automation opportunities, improved test environments, better data usage, and stronger quality governance.
 * Coach and support testers and project members in applying E2E testing best practices, ensuring a shared quality mindset across teams.
