  • Architectural Guidance: Work closely with the development team to ensure new feature implementations are designed with strong testability as a core requirement. You will gate features based on the architectural design's ability to support comprehensive integration testing.
  • Feature Awareness: Maintain deep knowledge of upcoming features and new development work, allowing you to proactively design and prepare the necessary testing infrastructure.
  • Test Implementation & Management: Manage the backlog of integration tests to be implemented and be a hands-on contributor, writing, running, and debugging test cases. You will also oversee the delivery of the testing framework for use by other team members, including manual testers.

  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to influence technical decisions.
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.
  • Experience with continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.
