Job Summary:

We are seeking an IT Enterprise Testing Leader to establish and lead a global testing capability in support of our enterprise transformation. The initial focus will be on the SAP S/4 Cloud and SAP Business Suite implementation, including the definition of testing processes, governance frameworks, and automation strategies. This role will be responsible for leading the end-to-end testing lifecycle—including supplier testing, internal IT testing, and user acceptance testing (UAT)—to ensure that all technology solutions meet business requirements and quality standards before being accepted and deployed for operational use. Leveraging the Tricentis toolset as the foundation, the leader will drive test execution, manage supplier contributions, and ensure alignment with internal controls and compliance requirements. Over time, this testing function will expand to encompass all enterprise applications and IT infrastructure as we separate from Owens Corning, integrate additional plants, and transition to steady-state operations.

Owens Corning Glass Reinforcements is a business unit of Owens Corning that is in the acquisition sign to close process. Owens Corning has signed an agreement to sell Glass Reinforcements to the Praana Group. The deal is expected to close by the end of 2025. The path ahead will be dynamic, full of change, and expected to be fast paced with a change in ownership. The business operates from twenty (20+) locations across the globe. The information technology environment supporting our new company is being built from the ground up in terms of IT infrastructure and applications with the opportunity to leverage new technologies and new ways of thinking as we look to end a transition services agreement associated with the acquisition as soon as possible.

All IT team members may be assigned IT Engineering responsibilities, focused on designing, building, and maintaining technology systems that support business operations. These assignments ensure secure connectivity, scalable platforms, and reliable data flow to enable efficient production, supply chain management, and enterprise-wide digital transformation—especially during the separation from Owens Corning.
