• Strong knowledge of QA processes, methodologies, test levels, and test types, with practical experience in functional, integration, system, regression, smoke, exploratory, and user acceptance testing
• Experience analyzing requirements and producing well-structured test assets, including test strategies, scenarios, cases, checklists, test data, and traceability
• Strong hands-on experience with functional API testing and REST principles, including advanced Postman skills with collections, environments, variables, data-driven execution, Collection Runner, mocking, Flows, authentication, pre-request scripts, assertions, and response validation
• Understanding of API contracts, schema validation, backward compatibility, authentication, authorization, roles, permissions, and common web and API vulnerabilities
• Working SQL knowledge, including CRUD operations and a foundational understanding of relational database behavior
• Ability to read and understand source code sufficiently to investigate system behavior, identify testing implications, and collaborate effectively with developers
• Working knowledge of Git and source-control practices for maintaining Postman collections, scripts, agent instructions, skills, and other QA assets
• Understanding of agentic concepts, including instructions, prompts, context management, agents, subagents, tools, skills, workflows, orchestration, memory, guardrails, evaluations, and human-in-the-loop controls
• Experience creating or configuring reusable QA agents, skills, tools, or workflows for requirements analysis, test generation, API testing, defect investigation, or reporting
• Ability to critically evaluate AI-generated output, identify hallucinations and unsupported assumptions, and recognize missing coverage or unreliable results
• Understanding of AI-related security and data-protection risks, including sensitive-data disclosure, prompt injection, unsafe tool execution, and excessive permissions
• Strong communication skills and confidence working with product owners, developers, automation engineers, and other cross-functional stakeholders
