• Familiarity with source control systems (e.g., Git) and branching schemes.
• Ability to communicate software issues clearly to development and management teams.
• Basic experience with testing analytics using tools such as Snowflake, with the ability to review and make minor modifications to existing SQL queries to validate data accuracy as per BI team expectations.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Ability to define a comprehensive test plan for app-wide regression checks, determining necessary test coverage based on release changes.
