• 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
