  • Develop new software test suites that operate on system level, regression, or component level testing. 
  • Develop rigorous software test plans that verify requirements and generate reporting tools to inform leadership of discovered issues. 
  • Work across multiple cross-functional teams to diagnose and debug issues for identification of root causes.
