• Identify, document, and reproduce defects. Provide clear reproduction steps, logs, and evidence sufficient for a developer to diagnose the issue, and track defects to closure.
• Monitor automated test runs in the CI/CD pipeline. Perform first-pass triage of failures and escalate to a senior engineer when the cause is unclear.
• Prepare test data and support test environments, including installing and updating software in lower environments under direction.
• Attend backlog refinement, sprint planning, and daily standup. Ask clarifying questions on acceptance criteria and raise testability concerns to the team.
• Maintain test documentation and release validation records in the tools of record. Perform other duties as deemed relevant, based on experience.

• Experience or exposure to test automation tools and frameworks, including API, browser, and AI-driven testing solutions.
• Demonstrated ability to learn new technologies quickly, including AI-assisted and agentic development tools.
