●                  Hands-on experience with test automation tools (preferred: Testim.io, Selenium, Pytest, Playwright).

●                  Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and integrating automated security/QA tests.

●                  Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to work independently.

Preferred Experience

●                  Experience with threat modeling or penetration testing.

●                  Knowledge of OWASP Top 10 security risks.

●                  Exposure to compliance frameworks (SOC2, ISO27001, GDPR, etc.).

●                  Programming or scripting background (JavaScript, Python, Java).
