Exercise good judgment, work independently and be proactive and diligent in resolving unanticipated mission-critical issues with a high degree of urgency. Make every effort and use all necessary resources to resolve issues affecting applications.

For the implementation of new application versions and features, conduct functional tests in accordance with user workflows. Coordinate user acceptance testing. Provide training on new features as needed. Coordinate the rollout with the IT team.
Interpret, arrange translation and follow up on user change requests with IT and other stakeholders so that business requirements are clearly understood.

Familiarize other people with their jobs by explaining your own duties.
