• Server Maintenance: Manage and maintain test servers, including regular backups and the recovery of crashed Red Hat Linux test servers using Clonezilla.
• Documentation & Training: Create and maintain functional test procedures (FTPs). Support the training and transfer of test setups to production using an Agile approach.
• Continuous Improvement: Collaborate closely with Quality Engineers to diagnose and resolve test‑related failures and drive ongoing process improvements.

Education
