Project Description
IT for the UK market’s largest ever cruise ship.
IT for the UK market’s largest ever cruise ship.

I tested brand new tech for Iona, a brand new ship.
I managed & ran testing for new, innovative technology being implemented on board at scale, including mobile embarkation and PoS systems, 100s of interactive TVs and 1000s of RFID identity & payment cards.
I managed the test schedule for 160 IT systems.
I wrote and managed the test schedule for all the necessary IT systems, including those that make a ship sail, working closely with deployment teams and senior stakeholders to ensure quality standards were met.
I was responsible for daily progress reporting.
I created a semi-automated test progress reporting tool, linked to Jira and TestRail, and presented this daily to management colleagues to support delivery across the programme.
