  • Experience testing applications deployed in AWS environments and working with cloud-hosted application components, APIs, databases, logs, and multiple test environments.
  • Hands-on experience creating and executing functional, system, regression, API, smoke, database, data validation, and user acceptance tests.
  • Experience with defect tracking, test management, requirements traceability, test evidence, test data preparation, and defect retesting.
  • Working knowledge of the software development lifecycle, agile delivery, DevSecOps concepts, version control, AWS-based CI/CD pipelines, and release management.
  • Ability to interpret Java application behavior, user stories, acceptance criteria, business rules, API contracts, data mappings, and technical design documentation.
  • Ability to troubleshoot test failures, analyze automated test execution results and application or AWS logs, isolate defects, and clearly communicate findings and quality risks.
