Communicate actionable test results, trends, and quality risks to stakeholders across organizational levels; recommend mitigation plans and release readiness criteria
Partner with Product Owners and Developers to refine user stories, acceptance criteria, and test scenarios; drive shift-left quality practices (e.g., TDD/BDD where applicable)
Work closely with functional testers and development teams to file, size, and prioritize the automation backlog; align automation work to product and integration roadmaps
Drive, recommend, and implement changes that enhance product quality and automated testing procedures (framework improvements, CI integration, reporting, environment stability)
Design, execute, and maintain manual and automated tests at the story, feature, and regression levels, with emphasis on interfaces and third-party integrations
Use Azure DevOps for test management, defect tracking, and traceability; ensure test evidence supports auditability and release decisions
Mentor peers on automation patterns, test design, and troubleshooting; contribute to standards, tooling, and best practices across QA
