• QA will focus on Test Automation using Capybara/Cypress and manual testing of client product. 
• QA will spend most of their time writing test automation, and the remainder doing manual testing (roughly a 60%/40% split). This percentage is subject to change based on the product area, functionality, and delivery timeline of the feature they are working on.
• QA should have a “testing mindset” and be able to identify test cases/scenarios and decide what should be tested manually vs tested via test automation. They will be responsible for quality of the product area they are testing and will be writing the test automation as well.

• Must be familiar with CI/CD pipelines and troubleshooting the test failures outside of development environment.
• Must be familiar with different levels of testing such as API, Unit, Integration, and GUI testing, and choose the appropriate approach for automation.

• Must be familiar with software development using an Agile process (Scrum, KanBan) 
• Must be able to effectively communicate with the dev team during various agile process ceremonies (daily standup, story refinement/backlog grooming, sprint planning and sprint retrospectives, etc) 
• These resources are expected to be an active participate in agile story refinement/grooming meetings, and able to identify initial manual test cases based on story refinement.
• Familiarity with Azure DevOps, JIRA, etc
