• Collaborate with engineers to implement shift-left testing practices and improve overall code quality,
• Identify, document, and track defects with clear, reproducible steps and technical insight,
• Analyse test results and failures, providing meaningful, actionable feedback to engineering teams,
• Contribute to test strategy including test data management and environment optimisation,
• Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and continuous improvement initiatives,
• Support performance, load, and security testing where required
