• Design and execute performance tests, collaborating with engineering and architecture teams to identify bottlenecks, scalability gaps, and system constraints.
• Perform data quality validations, including schema checks, transformation logic verification, data completeness, and anomaly detection.
• Partner with Product, Project Management, Engineering, and Operations to plan testing that meets quality, performance, and reliability goals.
• Ensure test coverage aligns with functional, non-functional, data integrity, and performance requirements.
• Build and maintain automation frameworks, recommending improvements and identifying areas where automation can increase efficiency or coverage.
• Participate in design and requirements reviews to ensure testability and quality considerations are integrated early.
• Collaborate with developers and architects to research and identify root causes for defects, performance issues, and data anomalies.
• Report defects and test results clearly and accurately; follow up to ensure resolution.
• Maintain flexibility to react quickly to changing priorities.
• Evaluate new testing tools and frameworks; participate in proof-of-concept efforts to expand automation and performance testing capabilities.
• Conduct project reviews to ensure quality control, test readiness, and alignment with QA standards.
• Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives, helping refine test planning, execution, defect management, and reporting practices.
• Maintain documentation required for internal and external audits, ensuring compliance with retention and governance requirements.
• Promote best practices in quality engineering across distributed teams and help mentor junior QA team members.
• Ensure findings from root cause analysis are addressed and preventive actions are implemented.
• Perform other duties as assigned.

• Hands-on experience with test automation, preferably with Playwright, or similar tools (e.g., Cypress, Selenium).
• Experience with REST API testing (Postman, REST-assured, or equivalent).
• Strong understanding of data quality testing, including validation of data pipelines, transformation logic, edge cases, and schema consistency.
• Exposure to performance testing tools (e.g., JMeter, Gatling, Locust).
• Solid understanding of software development processes, CI/CD pipelines, and DevOps-aligned testing.
• Experience testing modern frontend web applications, including DOM interaction, accessibility, cross-browser behavior, and rendering performance.
• Strong analytical and root cause analysis skills.
• Ability to identify continuous improvement opportunities in testing frameworks, infrastructure, and processes.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Attention to detail and ability to manage multiple priorities.
• Familiarity with testing in cloud-based environments is a plus.
• Understanding of industry QA trends, tooling, automation best practices, and emerging test methodologies.
