• Conduct structured exploratory testing sessions;
• Support the release management in a CI/CD environment, with a quality focus mindset;
• Analyze incidents assigned to the team and correctly report bugs for the team to fix it, agreeing with the Product Owner on their right priority and severity;

What You’ll Bring

• At least 3 years working in the Quality area;
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills;
• Understanding of basic concepts on testing against application programming interfaces (APIs) for web services or API gateways for varying protocols (e.g. REST, RPC or SOAP-based);

• Strong attention to detail;
• BSc or Masters in Computer Science or equivalent demonstrable knowledge;

We\'d Like You To Master In
