• Partner with developers, product managers, delivery teams, and other stakeholders to investigate non-conforming software and close identified defects.

· Plan and coordinate testing activities, test schedules, environment needs, dependencies, milestones, and release-readiness criteria.

· Support the setup, stabilization, availability, administration, and optimization of QA test environments and associated test applications.

· Conduct QA-to-UAT release-readiness reviews, milestone updates, business QA reviews, defect triage, and post-deployment validation.

· Communicate QA plans, commitments, testing status, release details, schedule or scope of changes, risks, blockers, failures, and unusual system issues to management and business stakeholders.

· Monitor debugging results and quality metrics, including defect trends and unresolved defects, to support release decisions and continuous improvement.

· Validate that release content and system behavior align with approved requirements and the intended function of the release.

· Maintain current knowledge of testing tools, test strategies, automation practices, CI/CD, DevOps, cloud technologies, and quality engineering best practices.

· Perform setup and testing of discounts, coupons, price groups, and promotions.

· Other related duties may be assigned to meet the ongoing needs of the organization.
