Role & responsibilities

Own the end-to-end testing strategy plan, design, execute, and report across manual and automated testing for complex enterprise systems.
Write and maintain test cases and test plans derived from requirements, mapping coverage back to acceptance criteria.
Build and maintain automated test suites functional, regression, and integration — and know when automation adds value versus when manual testing is the right call.
Lead security testing — identify vulnerabilities, validate authentication and authorization flows, test for common attack vectors, and verify data protection and access controls in line with enterprise and regulatory expectations.
Coordinate UAT (User Acceptance Testing) — the final testing phase where business users confirm the system meets their real-world needs. You'll plan sessions, prepare scenarios, guide non-technical stakeholders, capture feedback, and drive issues to resolution before go-live.
Perform API testing — verify that back-end services return correct data, handle errors gracefully, and integrate correctly with connected systems such as the CRM.
Run performance and load testing — validate that the system stays reliable and responsive under expected and peak usage.
Log, track,



and triage defects with clear reproduction steps, severity, and priority; partner with developers through to closure.
Champion quality across the team — contribute to release readiness decisions, mentor junior testers, and improve testing processes over time.

Preferred candidate profile

5+ years in QA / software testing, with demonstrable ownership of testing for complex or enterprise systems.
Solid command of both manual and automated testing — and sound judgment on where each applies.
Proven depth in security testing — vulnerability identification, auth/access validation, and secure-data verification.
Hands-on experience planning and coordinating UAT with business and non-technical stakeholders.
Solid API testing experience and understanding of how integrated systems (e.g. CRM-connected platforms) communicate.
Experience with performance / load testing.
Solid grasp of test methodologies — regression, integration, smoke, and exploratory testing — and how they fit a release cycle.
Familiarity with defect tracking and test management practices within an agile delivery process.
Excellent English communication and the self-direction to thrive offshore across time zones .
