- Review available user stories, defects, API or Postman assets, Application Insights information, release history, and existing regression notes to build an accurate quality baseline.
- Design and execute functional, negative, boundary, exploratory, regression, and integration test scenarios for PAR releases and production-impacting changes
- Perform defect retesting and targeted regression based on change impact and release scope.
- Partner with SMEs to validate unexpected results and distinguish defects from intended business behavior.
- Develop and maintain automated tests for repeatable web, API, and integration scenarios using the approved Central Testing framework and project tooling.
- Integrate automated tests with source control and CI/CD pipelines where practical, and publish execution results and evidence.
- Work as the full-time QA focal point for the application while partnering with Central Testing for standards, governance, automation guidance, and escalation support.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field
- Advanced English B2/C1 to ensure communication across functional teams.
- 5+ years of hands-on software quality assurance experience across web applications, APIs, and integrated enterprise solutions.

- Hands-on experience with Azure DevOps Test Plans or a comparable test-management platform.
- Practical API testing experience using Postman, Swagger, REST clients, or similar tools.
- Working knowledge of SQL and backend data validation for troubleshooting and result verification.
- Experience building or maintaining automated regression tests using Playwright, Selenium, Cucumber, or a comparable framework.
- Ability to translate demonstrations, business discussions, user stories, and defect history into structured scenarios and reusable test assets.
- Strong defect investigation, evidence collection, analytical thinking, and root-cause collaboration skills.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills and the ability to work effectively with distributed business and technical teams.
- Ability to work independently in an environment with evolving requirements, incomplete documentation, and shared dependencies.
Nice to have
- Experience testing pricing, quoting, approval, workflow, or rules-driven applications.
- Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines and producing execution reports or quality gates.
- Exposure to performance or load testing using Postman, k6, JMeter, or similar tools.
