The Senior Application Quality Engineer owns software quality assurance for enterprise business applications from requirements definition through production validation. Serving as the quality bridge between business analysts, developers, and business stakeholders, this role identifies gaps in requirements, establishes risk-based test coverage, performs hands-on validation, and provides evidence-based release-readiness recommendations. This position establishes repeatable testing practices and appropriate test automation. It is a dedicated software quality role, not an application development position or a substitute for business acceptance.
