- Apply risk-based testing techniques to prioritize testing efforts around high-impact functionality.
- Participate in code/design discussions and ensure testing aligns with the broader engineering standards being established across TechMod, including automation, CI/CD, APIs, and security.
- Perform manual testing where automation is not practical or where project requirements call for additional exploratory validation.
- Contribute to improving the team's overall automation framework and testing processes.
- Ability and willingness to perform both automated and manual testing
REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
- 2–3+ years of strong hands-on automation testing experience
- Hands-on experience with TestComplete for a Windows application

- Experience creating and executing JMeter performance test scripts
- Strong understanding of QA methodologies, regression testing, functional testing, and risk-based testing
