  • Understanding of software testing concepts and QA methodologies
  • Exposure to test automation frameworks or automated testing practices
  • Ability to troubleshoot issues and analyze test results
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills
  • Demonstrated willingness to learn new technologies and take on additional responsibilities

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Exposure to AI platforms such as Claude, Google Gemini, or other generative AI chatbot solutions
  • Experience with automated testing of voice or chat applications
  • Basic understanding of AWS cloud services
  • Prior software development experience and an interest in transitioning into QA/Test Automation

What is in it for you:
  • Opportunity to work with a Fortune 200 Banking partner on innovative customer experience platforms
  • Long-term contract with potential for future conversion based on performance and business need
  • Collaborative, growth-oriented team culture
  • Hands-on experience with IVR, chatbots, and automation technologies
