You will design and execute dynamic test cases—both automated and manual—covering the UI and APIs, while also validating user and admin manuals to ensure accuracy. Additionally, you will drive continuous improvement in testing processes, lead cross-functional collaborations, and strategically plan the testing roadmap. Your ability to lead, manage resources, and foster a culture of quality will be key to the success of innovative software solutions.
