• Develop, maintain, and scale test plans, test cases, and automated test scripts, enabling repeatable, efficient, and high-quality testing across multiple environments and application layers.
• Validate data integrity, calculations, and system outputs, ensuring consistency with business rules and identifying downstream impacts across interconnected enterprise systems and workflows.
• Proactively identify, assess, and communicate quality risks, gaps, and failure points early in the development lifecycle to support informed release decisions and reduce production issues.
• Manage the full defect lifecycle, ensuring issues are clearly documented, prioritized, tracked, and resolved in collaboration with development teams and stakeholders.
• Partner closely with cross-functional teams to understand requirements, review solution designs, and ensure systems are testable, scalable, and aligned with business objectives.
• Leverage and expand test automation frameworks and tools to improve testing coverage, efficiency, and reliability while reducing manual effort and execution time.
• Support UAT, release validation, and production issue investigation, using root cause analysis to continuously improve system quality and prevent recurring defects.

What You Bring

• 10+ years of experience in software quality assurance within enterprise environments, with a strong track record of designing and executing comprehensive testing strategies.
• Deep expertise in manual testing, including functional, integration, and regression testing, combined with hands-on experience building or maintaining automated testing frameworks.
• Proficiency with automation tools and scripting languages such as Playwright, JavaScript, or Python to develop scalable, maintainable automated test solutions.
• Strong understanding of QA methodologies, tools, and best practices, including test management and defect tracking systems like JIRA or Azure DevOps.
• Experience working with CI/CD pipelines, version control systems, and modern development practices to support continuous testing and high-quality software delivery.
• Solid analytical, problem-solving, and data validation skills, with a high attention to detail and the ability to identify complex system issues and edge cases.
• Experience working in Agile environments, collaborating effectively with distributed teams and managing multiple priorities in fast-paced delivery cycles.
