They participate in requirement reviews, clarify testability concerns, and provide input on user stories to ensure quality is considered from the outset.

Strong analytical thinking, attention to detail, and excellent communication skills help distinguish top performers in this role. These skills are crucial for ensuring software quality, minimizing defects, and facilitating clear collaboration across development teams.
