- Establish standards, patterns, and best practices for writing and maintaining tests; review and mentor the Middle AQA;

- Build a stable, prioritized E2E regression suite covering critical user journeys;

- Integrate automated tests into the CI/CD pipeline and drive reporting, flake reduction, and test-run stability;

- Partner with the client’s developers and Engineering Excellence lead to embed quality practices across the team;

- Identify coverage gaps and risks, and continuously improve test quality, speed, and signal.
