SQA Engineer II will plan, design, and execute system-level testing for each release cycle, reviewing requirements and designs to identify defects early. The role requires creating and maintaining C#-based test automation scripts, performing functional and regression testing on equipment, and analyzing defects in Jira with clear documentation and reproduction steps. Responsibilities include collaborating with development teams to triage and verify fixes, extracting release data via SQL to generate quality metrics, and estimating testing effort based on scope and risk. The engineer will also mentor junior QA staff, propose process improvements, and use AI tools to enhance test planning and defect analysis.
