Support end-to-end payment operations, including exception handling, traceability, and reconciliation between AP subledger, banking activity, and the general ledger. Ensure strong alignment with RTR processes, including period-end close, accruals, AP aging, invoice reconciliation, and audit-ready financial controls. Translate business requirements into functional specifications and lead testing cycles including Unit Testing, SIT, and UAT, alongside defect resolution, deployment support, and hypercare. Drive continuous improvement through automation and innovation, leveraging AI, ML, OCR, and RPA to improve KPIs such as touchless rate, cycle time, exception rates, late payments, and processing productivity. Maintain SOX compliance, audit controls, and comprehensive documentation including runbooks, SOPs, and global standards.
