• Support development, maintenance, or validation of simple automation solutions, dashboards, scripts, or AI-enabled tools that improve efficiency, consistency, and scalability of quality activities.
• Collaborate with Software Engineering, SQA team members, and other stakeholders to help integrate automation capabilities into existing enterprise tools and workflows while preserving appropriate human oversight and accountability.
