Senior QA Analyst – Frontend

• Own quality assurance across the frontend-to-middleware boundary of a multi-step web onboarding workflow
• Design and execute advanced exploratory testing, especially around form-level validation and submission behavior
• Apply boundary testing to frontend input handling and middleware calls
• Use equivalence partitioning to design high-coverage test cases across valid, invalid, and edge-case inputs
• Validate application behavior against state models, including step progression, action states, submission, and confirmation states
• Lead defect triage sessions and prioritize issues by severity, impact, and reproducibility
• Partner with developers to clarify root causes and confirm fixes
• Mentor junior QA testers on exploratory techniques and structured test design
• Contribute to test strategy documentation and coverage planning
• Formalize and maintain the onboarding FSM/state-transition model
• Identify decision forks, state dependencies, persona-specific variations, and boundary conditions
• Validate coverage across representative onboarding personas and identify testing gaps
• Produce a validated frontend/state-model evidence package for the Middleware SDET workstream
• Maintain traceability between UI behavior, FSM states, decision forks, and supporting evidence

• Strong defect triage experience, including severity/priority classification and cross-team coordination
• Analytical mindset with the ability to identify non-obvious edge cases
• Effective communicator capable of guiding triage discussions and mentoring peers
• Experience testing complex multi-step workflows, onboarding systems, registration flows, or account-creation processes is strongly preferred
