YOUR ROLE

As the Test Manager – Manhattan Active WMS/OMS Deployment, you will lead end-to-end testing activities for CEVA’s multi-year deployment of Manhattan Active Warehouse Management System (WMS) and Order Management System (OMS) across 50+ U.S. warehouse operations.

This role is highly engaged in User Acceptance Testing (UAT), ensuring warehouse operations teams are fully prepared and that business processes are validated prior to go-live. You will also closely monitor System Integration Testing (SIT) and Manhattan unit testing to ensure defects are identified, triaged, and resolved efficiently before entering UAT.

The Test Manager will serve as the primary owner of test governance, execution quality, and readiness reporting across the program, partnering closely with IT, Operations, Manhattan delivery teams, and cross-functional workstreams.

• Define test standards, templates, entry/exit criteria, and readiness gates for each test phase including unit testing, SIT, and UAT.
• Establish testing governance routines, reporting cadences, and escalation paths aligned with program leadership expectations.

User Acceptance Testing (UAT) Leadership

• Own UAT planning and execution across deployments, ensuring test coverage aligns to warehouse operations and customer-specific requirements.
• Partner with site leadership, super users, and business SMEs to develop UAT scenarios covering inbound, outbound, inventory, wave planning, shipping, returns, and exception handling.
• Coordinate execution schedules, user participation, training alignment, and test completion tracking to ensure successful UAT delivery.
• Drive UAT sign-off readiness by ensuring business stakeholders validate system performance and process execution prior to cutover.

SIT and Unit Testing Oversight

• Closely monitor SIT execution, ensuring integration testing covers end-to-end workflows across WMS, OMS, ERP, transportation systems, parcel shipping, EDI, and customer platforms.
• Review and validate Manhattan unit testing progress to confirm readiness for SIT and downstream UAT execution.
• Ensure test environments, data setup, and integration connectivity are stable and aligned with the testing schedule.

• Coordinate issue resolution across Manhattan delivery teams, IT integration teams, operations SMEs, and external partners.
• Track defect trends, root causes, and systemic issues to reduce recurring failures across future deployment waves.

Test Reporting & Deployment Readiness
