Using testing principles, you will ensure quality gates and release criteria are met and provide transparent release readiness assessments.Automation & CI/CDYou will actively contribute to and evolve the test automation strategy, helping increase coverage and reliability.This includes working with automation frameworks, integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines, and improving overall testability in collaboration with engineering teams.
