- Learn and work within existing TMS tooling, with opportunities to assist on tooling setup
- Coordinate with cross-functional teams (e.g., marketing) on localization touchpoints
- Manage LQA projects: select sampling, ensure timely linguist reviews, and route feedback to vendors
- Project manage quality initiatives such as glossary localization and translation cleanup
- Surface process gaps and flag them for senior team review
- Help troubleshoot localization bugs and contribute to ongoing quality improvement efforts
