  • Engage in Agile ceremonies (retrospectives, backlog refinement, sprint planning) to ensure continuous improvement.
  • Partner with engineering teams for integration and release testing in cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure).

Note: Detailed project information will be shared during the recruitment process.

  • Familiar with DevSecOps delivery processes and CI/CD concepts.
  • Experience with QA and testing tools: JIRA, Confluence, GIT, and test management solutions like QTest, Tricentis, or Zephyr.
  • Knowledge of API testing and familiarity with protocols such as REST and HTTP.
