  • Identify, document, track, and manage defects until resolution.
  • Generate high-quality, detailed, and reproducible bug reports.
  • Analyze logs, metrics, and system data to troubleshoot and pinpoint root causes.
  • Set up, configure, and maintain testing environments, devices, and equipment.
  • Triage urgent or high-impact issues, prioritize effectively, and suggest solutions.
