Carry out procedures to ensure that all applications under test (AUT) meet organizational standards and end-user requirements. Thoroughly test software to ensure proper operation and freedom from defects. Document and work to identify all problems to ensure resolution. Report progress on testing and problem resolution to appropriate parties. Devise improvements to current procedures and develop models of possible future configurations. Perform work flow analysis and recommend quality improvements. Builds quality within the software development process with automated testing suites providing a comprehensive view from code quality to functionality. Uses quality paradigms to provide real time quality with use of automation and frequent regression testing. Maintains automation frameworks and automation test suites and scripts with continuous integration, testing, deployment and delivery.
Conducts online, batch and data verification testing (checked for accuracy and inconsistencies after data migration is done) and validates test results. Creates test designs and performs test analysis on complex project requirements (as defined by the client). Coordinates with technical and business resources to identify and resolve complex issues or system defects discovered during the testing and design contingency plans as needed.
Analyzes requirements necessary to design complex testing strategies (testing objective, methods of testing new functions, total time and resources required for the project, and the testing environment) for internal/external clients (i.e. technical and functional designs). Demonstrates extensive knowledge and understanding of structured analysis and design (define user needs) as it relates to the test design. Recognizes the interrelationships between the various functional components of the system (i.e. collections, posting, authorizations) and the business, technical and project requirements in order to determine the appropriate testing methodology to use during test execution and validation. Performs risk analysis requirements for integrated testing (combined and tested as a group).
Identifies and recommends design processes aimed at increased efficiency, performance and reliability. Demonstrates a strong working knowledge of automated testing tools used to create test designs and execute test plans.
Works with stakeholders, business, developers and test analysts to develop more intricate test plans, conditions and cases (set of inputs, execution preconditions, and expected outcomes developed for a particular objective, such as to exercise a particular program path or to verify compliance with a specific requirement) to be used in testing. Develops and administers best practices to perform test data conditioning and execution of test sets. Works with programming to create certain account conditions and execute special testing requirements for test validation. Demonstrates a broad knowledge of the multiple environments by evaluating, interpreting and communicating an understanding of the various components of systems and applications to leadership.
Compiles, develops and documents test/defect reports and follows all defects through to resolution and closure. Reviews documentation such as business and technical specifications in order to ensure that the documentation is updated and accurate.
Maintains and administers procedures, methodology and/or application standards to include payment card industry and security related compliance according to how they are applied in testing activities.
Design, develop, and maintain automated tests using Java, Gherkin and Cucumber within an existing test automation framework.
Execute and analyze test results, identify and report defects, and work closely with the development team to resolve issues.
Drive continuous integration and continuous delivery practices by integrating automated tests into the build process using industry-standard tools like Jenkins.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to innovate and improve the test automation process.
Writes maintainable, reusable, and readable automated tests following team standards.
Reviews automation code for quality, stability, and alignment with best practices.
Diagnoses flaky tests and improves test reliability.
Hybrid Testing Expectations
This role blends manual exploratory testing and automated test development, with an expected split of approximately 70% manual / 30% automation depending on project needs.
The tester is expected to identify automation candidates, execute manual testing where automation is not feasible, and maintain automated coverage over time.
Manual testing includes exploratory, regression, UAT support, and risk-based testing across multiple platforms.
Level of Responsibility
Owns testing activities for medium to large features or components, with minimal supervision.
Actively participates in refinement, planning, and design discussions to influence testability early.
Escalates risks, blockers, and quality concerns proactively with recommended solutions.
Mentor's junior testers through test design reviews, automation patterns, and best practices (informal mentorship).
