- Have a strong ability to jump in and assist with investigating issues while using a variety of tooling appropriate for the given technologies being investigated.
- Demonstrate a strong knowledge of the technologies they have worked with and use this knowledge to inform their approach to any quality-related practice.

**You should have**:

- 5+ years of formal experience, continuous learning, and / or personal growth in the software testing field.
- 1+ years in a senior software quality role with mentorship examples.
- A resume that clearly describes the interesting and unique ways you've improved product or process quality or supported customers and improved customer experience (not necessarily software products, processes, or experiences) in the past.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to communicate observed software behaviour and its impact on the current project's success, as well as to persuade and influence team members when identifying new ways of implementing featur
