What You Will Do
- Lead risk-based test strategy, planning, and execution for new and existing systems, prioritizing coverage based on business impact, complexity, and delivery risk.
- Collaborate with developers, product owners, and business analysts to clarify requirements, remove impediments, and maintain traceability across requirements, test cases, defects, and test evidence.
- Design, implement, maintain, and execute manual and automated tests for APIs, web applications, and backend systems, coordinating the test data, environments, and dependencies required for effective execution.
- Coordinate UAT planning, including readiness assessments, test-scenario preparation, business-tester support, issue triage, progress reporting, and sign-off documentation.
- Own defect management, including clear documentation, triage, root-cause analysis, fix verification, retesting, and closure.
- Assess and communicate test progress, coverage, defect trends, unresolved issues, and risk. Provide release-readiness recommendations.
- Embed quality throughout the agile delivery lifecycle by contributing to planning, stand-ups, and retrospectives, while strengthening QA practices and driving continuous improvement across the team.
What You Bring
- 5+ years of software quality assurance experience, including at least 2 years in a senior or lead role within a fast-paced agile environment.
- Strong experience designing and documenting functional, integration, regression, end-to-end, and non-functional test cases, with practical experience planning and executing performance and load tests.
