• Intermediate SQL skills, including joins, aggregations, subqueries, and data validation.
• Experience validating data consistency, transaction integrity, and persistence across frontend, backend, and database layers.
• Knowledge of formal test-design techniques, including equivalence partitioning, boundary value analysis, decision tables, and risk-based testing.
• Experience testing web, mobile, API-based, integrated, or transactional applications.
• Strong analytical thinking, attention to detail, autonomy, ownership, and communication skills.

Nice to Have:

• Experience in banking, fintech, insurance, or financial services environments.

• Familiarity with Postman, Swagger, Jira, Xray, or Zephyr.
• Exposure to test automation, CI/CD, and backend integrations.

You Will Be Accountable for the Following Responsibilities:

• Analyze requirements and acceptance criteria to identify scenarios, risks, and coverage gaps.
• Design and execute functional, integration, regression, and end-to-end tests.
• Validate business rules and complete workflows across multiple application layers.
• Use SQL to verify data consistency, transaction integrity, and correct persistence.
• Compare frontend behavior against backend and database results.
• Document, track, retest, and follow defects through resolution.
