Notice: Technical Issue with Email Notifications

We are currently experiencing technical difficulties with the delivery of automated emails from our applicant management system.

If you have not received a message from us or are unsure, please contact the person listed in the job posting directly. Thank you for your understanding!

Here's what you can look forward to

• Architect and implement a robust test data management strategy across environments
• Develop and maintain test environment management frameworks to streamline testing workflows

• Define and implement governance and best practices for QA and test data processes

• Establish metrics and reporting frameworks to measure QA and environment stability
• Ensure QA architecture aligns with the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and delivery pipelines
• Act as a technical problem solver across systems, debugging and addressing issues hands‑on

• Deep understanding of QA frameworks, SDLC processes, and software quality strategy
• Ability to troubleshoot, design, and implement solutions across diverse technology stacks
• Familiarity with test data management tools and environment management solutions would be a plus, but is not a requirement
