Test Strategy & Quality Engineering

• Review and analyze business requirements, system specifications, architecture designs, and technical documentation.
• Develop comprehensive test strategies, test plans, test scenarios, and test cases covering functional and non-functional requirements.
• Lead test reviews and ensure high-quality test coverage across applications, APIs, data pipelines, and AI solutions.
• Define quality metrics, testing standards, and best practices across projects.

Application & API Testing

• Validate web applications, backend services, microservices, and APIs.
• Design and execute automated UI, API, integration, regression, and end-to-end test suites.
• Perform cross-browser, cross-platform, and compatibility testing.
• Identify defects, perform root cause analysis, and work closely with engineering teams for resolution.

Data Engineering & Analytics Testing

• Validate ETL/ELT pipelines, data transformations, data integrations, and reporting systems.
• Develop automated data quality checks and reconciliation frameworks.
• Create and execute SQL-based validation scripts to verify data accuracy, completeness, consistency, and lineage.
• Test data ingestion pipelines and cloud data platforms such as Snowflake, Databricks, Azure Data Factory, or equivalent.

AI / ML / GenAI Testing

• Validate AI/ML model outputs, prompt workflows, RAG pipelines, and AI agents.
• Develop automated testing approaches for model accuracy, reliability, consistency, hallucination detection, and response quality.
• Execute performance, robustness, and security testing for AI-enabled applications.
• Collaborate with AI engineers to establish evaluation frameworks and quality benchmarks.

Test Automation & DevOps

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable automation frameworks using industry-standard tools and practices.
• Integrate automated test suites into CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps.
• Implement quality gates and automated validations for deployments.
• Enable continuous testing and shift-left quality practices.

Cloud & Platform Validation

• Test distributed systems, cloud-native applications, APIs, event-driven architectures, and platform integrations.
• Support test environment setup, configuration, monitoring, and release validation activities.
• Validate system resiliency, scalability, and reliability.

Collaboration & Leadership

• Work closely with Product Owners, Architects, Developers, Data Engineers, Security Engineers, and Business stakeholders.
• Provide regular testing status, quality metrics, risks, and recommendations to leadership.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies, sprint planning, backlog refinement, retrospectives, and global stand-ups.
• Mentor junior QA engineers and promote automation-first quality engineering practices.

Required Qualifications

• B.E./B.Tech/MCA/B.Sc. (Computer Science or related discipline).
• 3-6 years of hands-on experience in Software Testing and Test Automation.
  • Strong understanding of SDLC, STLC, Agile, Quality Engineering, and DevOps practices.
