    and Communication: Work closely with cross-functional teams, including
    developers, business analysts, and project managers, to ensure a clear
    understanding of requirements and effective communication throughout the
    testing process. Participate in meetings, provide testing updates, and offer
    insights and suggestions for process improvement.

  • Quality
    Assurance: Contribute to the improvement of quality assurance processes and
    methodologies. Identify opportunities for test automation, performance testing,
    or other testing techniques to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of
    functional testing activities.
