• Develop and execute test plans, test cases, and test scripts for functional, performance, and regression testing of software applications, embedded systems, or hardware components.
• Design and implement automated test scripts and frameworks using scripting languages (e.g., Python, Java, C++) and test automation tools (e.g., Selenium, JUnit, Robot Framework) to improve testing efficiency and coverage.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including software developers, hardware engineers, and product managers, to understand requirements, define test objectives, and identify test scenarios.
• Perform manual and automated testing activities, including test execution, defect tracking, and test result analysis, to identify and report defects, anomalies, and performance issues.
• Participate in design reviews, code inspections, and requirement discussions to provide input on testability, quality, and reliability considerations throughout the product development lifecycle.
• Analyze test results and metrics to identify trends, patterns, and areas for improvement, and provide feedback to stakeholders on product quality and test coverage.
• Maintain and enhance test environments, test tools, and test data repositories to support ongoing testing activities and ensure consistency and reliability in test execution.
• Stay current with industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in software testing and test automation, and share knowledge and insights with the team.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
• 3-6 years of experience in software testing, quality assurance, or related roles, with a focus on manual and automated testing of software applications or systems. 
• Proficiency in software testing methodologies, techniques, and tools, including test planning, test case design, test automation, and defect tracking. 
• Experience with test automation frameworks and tools (e.g., Selenium, JUnit, TestNG, Robot Framework) and scripting languages (e.g., Python, Java, C++).
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to analyze complex systems, identify root causes of issues, and propose effective solutions.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in a team environment and interact with stakeholders at all levels.
