Key Responsibilities

General

- Execute and validate existing pipeline scripts in UAT ahead of Champion testing to identify defects early, minimize downstream impact, and support smooth testing progression using Selenium.
- Communicate effectively with the Scrum team, providing clear feedback on test execution and outcomes.
- Analyze, review, and test platform features in lower environments, reporting outcomes, and supporting sign-off scenarios.
- Log platform defects in Azure DevOps with clear reproduction steps to support efficient investigation and resolution.
- Ensure test scripts are completed within agreed sprint timelines for the UAT environment.
- Provide timely updates on outstanding scripts across QC and UAT environments.
- Contribute to the continuous improvement of existing test scripts and processes.

Regression Tests

- Maintain the UAT regression test suite to reflect platform changes following implementation.
- Lead Show & Tell sessions for tested stories, highlighting risks, issues, and areas requiring attention.
- Demonstrate current functionality to business stakeholders in preparation for UAT.
- Analyze UAT test results and escalate issues in a timely manner.
- Support final test sign-off prior to promotion of features into Production.

Automation Support

- Coordinate work items for automation activity based on regression test scenarios and agreed priorities.
- Ensure that automated scripts are regularly reviewed and updated to maintain accurate coverage.
- Maintain the automated test tracker and provide accurate progress updates.

Required Skills and Experience

- Proven experience in manual and regression testing within Agile delivery environments.
- Experience using Azure DevOps and Jira for defect management and test support activities.
- Working knowledge of Selenium.
- Ability to document test cases, defects, and outcomes with a high level of accuracy and attention to detail.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills,



with the ability to work effectively across cross-functional teams.

Preferred Skills and Experience

- Exposure to automated testing frameworks and scripting would be advantageous.
- Understanding UAT processes and regression testing cycles would beneficial.

AI Adoption and Capability Development

Whilst AI tools are not currently a core requirement of the role, the successful candidate will be expected to demonstrate awareness of emerging AI capabilities and a willingness to support the adoption of approved tools that enhance regression testing, improve efficiency, and contribute to continuous improvement within the QA function.

Required

- Must demonstrate openness to adopting approved AI-enabled solutions within the organizations technology landscape.
- Must be able to provide clear context, objectives, and constraints when using AI-enabled tools.
- Must possess strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to break complex testing challenges into structured tasks.
- Must be able to assess, validate, and fact-check AI-generated outputs, applying sound judgement and appropriate human oversight.
- Must demonstrate awareness of responsible AI principles, including data quality, governance, and the limitations of AI-enabled solutions.

Preferred

- Previous exposure to machine learning, generative AI, or automation concepts relevant to QA and business environments would be advantageous.
- Experience in data interpretation and basic analysis, including confidence working with structured and unstructured data, is preferred.




- An understanding of data quality standards and governance principles in support of AI-enabled use cases is desirable.
- The ability to identify automation opportunities and apply a problem-first approach to process improvement would be beneficial.

Nice to Have

- Familiarity with analytical and reporting tools such as Excel, SQL, and Power BI would be an advantage.
- Practical AI literacy, including awareness of tool limitations and the need for validation and human review, would beneficial.
- A curious, test-and-learn mindset and willingness to experiment with new approaches in a controlled environment would be valued.
