KEY RESPONSIBILITIES 

•     Own the full QA lifecycle for assigned features and releases — from requirements review through test planning, execution, defect tracking, and sign-off

•     Design, develop, and maintain comprehensive test plans, test cases, and test suites that cover functional, regression, integration, and edge-case scenarios

•     Build, maintain, and scale automated test frameworks and scripts using open-source and enterprise - tooling reducing manual effort and increasing confidence

•     Perform exploratory, functional, regression, performance, and API testing across our ASP.NET / SQL Server / Azure-hosted SaaS platform

•     Review system requirements, user stories, and technical design documents early in the development cycle to surface risks and provide meaningful QA feedback

•     Collaborate closely with developers, product managers, and data engineers to identify, document, reproduce, and verify resolution of defects

•     Monitor and report on QA metrics - defect density, test coverage, open defect counts, and release readiness - to keep the team data-informed

•     Investigate root causes of non-conforming software and drive process improvements to prevent recurrence

•     Stay current with evolving QA methodologies, tools, and industry trends — especially in automation, AI-assisted testing, and SaaS quality practices
