Ability to identify data requirements and implement tests to achieve coverage.
Recommend and implement improvements to the test automation framework.
Experience in test automation within a continuous integration environment.
Ability to collaborate in daily standups and work closely with developers.
Effective interpersonal skills and proven ability to collaborate with all stakeholders.
Attentive to detail and highly organized.
Demonstrated ability to change direction and re-prioritize in a fast-paced team environment.
Strong organizational, planning, and follow-up skills, with the ability to hold others accountable.
Experience using Git SCM tools, such as GitHub, Bitbucket, or similar tools.
