  • Validate enhancements, maintenance releases, and backlog items against business requirements and acceptance criteria.
  • Create and execute test plans, test cases, and testing documentation.
  • Identify, document, and track defects through resolution.
  • Partner with developers, Business Analysts, and business stakeholders to ensure successful software delivery.
  • Promote QA best practices through collaboration, communication, and hands on execution.

Required Qualifications

  • Strong experience with manual software testing.
  • Experience creating and executing test plans and test cases.
  • Experience testing enterprise applications.
  • Solid understanding of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with OnBase or other document management platforms.
  • Experience with Azure DevOps.
