• Strong troubleshooting and analytical skills with the ability to diagnose complex issues across software, configuration, integration, hardware, data, and environments.
• Experience with SQL, REST APIs, log analysis, distributed systems, and system configuration analysis.
• Proven ability to lead QA activities across cross-functional and distributed teams without direct authority.
• Experience creating test strategies, readiness criteria, execution plans, and reusable QA artifacts.
