• Maintain clear documentation, accountability, and task ownership
• Drive teams to meet deadlines without compromising quality
• **QA, Launch & Post-Launch**
• Own QA across responsiveness, design accuracy, performance, and functionality
• Oversee UAT, launch readiness, and final approvals
• Ensure clean handover and post-launch support alignment
