Manual & Exploratory Testing

• Analyze business requirements, functional specifications, and user stories to create comprehensive manual test cases and checklists.
• Perform exploratory, usability, and ad‑hoc testing to uncover edge cases not covered by automation.
• Log, track, and manage defects in Azure DevOps, providing clear reproduction steps, logs, and impact analysis.

Quality Governance

• Ensure adherence to enterprise QA standards, test coverage expectations, and release quality gates.
• Actively contribute to continuous improvement of QA processes, tools, and test strategies.

Required Skills & Experience

• 5–8 years of professional experience in Quality Assurance for large‑scale enterprise applications.
• Strong hands‑on experience with Robot Framework and Python‑based test automation.
• Solid foundation in manual testing, including functional, regression, and exploratory testing.
• Experience working with CI/CD pipelines and test management in Azure DevOps.
• Proven ability to work in complex, high‑volume, customer‑facing systems; airline or contact‑center domain experience is a strong advantage.
