• Verify removal of customer-specific proprietary information, security settings, banners, naming conventions, and related configuration elements before migration handover activities.
• Partner with network SMEs to review migration plans, implementation schedules, and post-migration validation results.

Stakeholder Management

• Collaborate with customer stakeholders, technical teams, and program leadership.
• Drive discussions related to migration planning, cutover coordination, and issue resolution.
• Ensure alignment between business requirements and technical execution.
• Provide timely communication on project status, risks, and mitigation plans.

Quality Assurance & Validation

• Support technical validation checkpoints throughout the migration lifecycle.
• Ensure required technical reviews, audits, and governance controls are completed.
• Monitor adherence to migration standards, operational procedures, and customer-specific requirements.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field.
• 15+ years of IT industry experience.
