- Support and complete test orchestration across environments, test cards, sandbox and processor simulators, and device fleets, using analysis, experience, and sound decision-making.
- Record, log, and track defects with clear reproduction steps, logs, and transaction IDs, and coordinate resolutions with the development team and functional leads.
- Assess test results to quickly identify and document defects, including discrepancies in transaction amounts, statuses, fees, or settlement data.
- Support certification and compliance testing, such as card brand, EMV, acquirer/processor, and PCI-related requirements.
- Direct projects from a quality assurance perspective, keeping both the merchant and the cardholder experience in mind.
- Independently own a workstream or product line (for example, terminal software, merchant portal, or payment APIs), covering review and testing activities throughout the project life cycle.
- Maintain the device test lab, including terminals, peripherals, test cards, and firmware versions.
