**Key Responsibilities**:

- Develop, document, and maintain test plans, test cases, and automated test scripts for frontend and backend systems, APIs, microservices, and IoT-specific components.
- Design and execute end-to-end tests across the full technology stack, ensuring quality from the user interface through to the database, service layers, and IoT device integrations.
- Collaborate closely with developers, product managers, and other stakeholders to understand requirements and ensure high-quality deliverables.
- Perform functional, performance, and security testing of software products.
- Assist in maintaining and evolving CI/CD pipelines for automated testing and quality checks.
- Participate in code reviews and provide feedback from a QA perspective.
- Stay informed about emerging QA methodologies, tools, and best practices.
- Support the continuous improvement of QA processes and standards, contributing to a culture of quality across the team and group

- Good understanding of QA methodologies, tools, and processes, with an emphasis on the unique challenges of IoT systems such as interoperability, real-time data, and device diversity.
- Experience with test automation frameworks (e.g., Selenium, Cypress, Postman, xUnit, or similar) for both frontend and backend testing.
- Familiarity with backend technologies, especially C# and Dotnet (.Net Framework,.Net Core, and.Net).
- Experience testing database technologies, both relational (e.g., PostgreSQL, SQL Server) and NoSQL (e.g., MongoDB, Redis).
- Exposure to containerization (Docker) and orchestration tools (Kubernetes) from a QA perspective.
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices.
- Strong interest and understanding of IoT protocols (e.g., MQTT, LoRaWAN, CoAP), standards, and business use cases—the ability to grasp how IoT solutions deliver value and the risks involved is highly valued, even if not yet a core technical skill
