• Test REST APIs using tools like Postman / Swagger
• Analyze product requirements and translate them into clear test cases
• Perform functional, regression, smoke, and exploratory testing
• Identify, document, and track bugs clearly (steps to reproduce, expected vs actual results)
• Work closely with developers and product owners to clarify requirements and edge cases
• Validate fixes and ensure issues are fully resolved

• Help improve QA processes, test coverage, and documentation over time
