We are seeking a skilled Senior QA/UX Engineer with experience in software testing, requirement refinement, and Agile/Scrum environments, combined with strong UX and business-process thinking.
As a Senior QA/UX Engineer, you will help ensure the quality, usability, and operational reliability of an in-house software platform for data center provisioning and operations. You will combine QA discipline with strong UX and business-process thinking, helping bridge the gap between operational users and engineers to make the platform intuitive, dependable, and ready to support downstream automation.
