- Be proactive in identifying risks/issues and communicate them in advance
- Support critical releases when required, including beyond standard working hours
- Execute performance and security sanity checks
- Validate AI/ML workflows and data-processing pipelines where applicable
- Continuously improve QA processes and contribute to strengthening the QA function

- Strong debugging skills, attention to detail, and ownership of product quality during release cycles are expected.
- Experience using AI tools for writing automation scripts, API test cases, and test documentation will be considered a strong advantage.
