As our Security & QA Analyst, you will be responsible for creating and implementing testing and evaluation procedures, ensuring software systems function correctly, and under all security scenarios, by conducting regular security assessments and implementing robust security measures.
You will also be carrying out automation and regression testing on internally developed tools and applications, in conjunction with the Application Development Team.

-Experience working with Development Teams and Product Owners to execute security and performance testing
-Well-rounded communication skills for technical and non-technical audiences, ability to influence and motivate others
