• Lead workshops, fit-gap analysis, solution confirmation, and design reviews, and manage decisions, risks, and dependencies.
• Oversee and produce high-quality functional specifications, process flows, user stories, accounting examples, mappings, test scenarios, and acceptance criteria for RICE components; guide technical teams on source-to-target mappings, event and accounting logic, interface controls, error handling, reconciliation, and reporting.
• Define test strategy and lead CRP, SIT, UAT, regression, conversion, cutover, and validation of revenue contracts, revenue schedules, accounting entries, balances, and reports.
• Lead R12-to-Fusion migration and reconciliation of revenue contract, performance obligation, deferred or unearned revenue, and related accounting data.
• Drive training, deployment readiness, and hypercare, and own the solution beyond go-live, including controls, operational documentation, impact assessment of Oracle quarterly releases, enhancements, and continuous improvement.
• Mentor product team members, manage cross-workstream risks and dependencies, and communicate recommendations to senior stakeholders.
