Strategy & Planning:

• End-to-End Test Strategy: Develop the master test plan covering Unit, Functional, Regression, Performance, Security, and Cross-Device testing.

• Test Data & Migration: Define the strategy for validating data migration from legacy systems to the new scalable cloud architecture.

• Automation Roadmap: Set up the automated testing pipeline integrated into the CI/CD workflow.

Execution & Reporting:

• Cross-Platform Validation: Lead testing across iOS, Android, and Web to ensure a seamless "feed-first" guest experience.

• Integration Testing: Verify complex API connections between the core platform and third-party services (Payment Gateways, PIM, DAM, and Analytics).

• Accessibility (WCAG): Practical experience testing for WCAG 2.2 AA compliance.

• Performance Testing: Experience with load testing tools (e.g., JMeter, Gatling) to simulate high-traffic scenarios.

• Automation: Hands-on experience building automated test suites within a CI/CD pipeline (Azure DevOps Security)

• Mindset: Familiarity with testing OAuth/OpenID

• Connect and identifying common vulnerabilities.

• Good communication skills (written and verbal)

• Jira Proficiency

• Full time availability, with overlap during 14:00-18:00 - to ensure seamless collaboration with USA based client

Additional Requirements (nice-to-have):
