• Proficiency with microservices, REST/SOAP services, batch jobs, databases, messaging (e.g., Kafka/MQ).

• Demonstrated ability to design a testing strategy and justify the choice of testing levels and the automated vs. manual scope.

• Hands-on experience with mocking/stubbing, contract testing, data management, and mitigation of flaky tests.

• CI/CD integration (reports, gates, artifacts) and a strong sense of performance/observability.

• Leadership: coaching, governance, clear communication with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• TDD/BDD practices and quality gates.

• Bilingual (French and English) - required to interact regularly with colleagues across the country.
