Innovation Starts Here

STA PrimeTime Test & Validation Sr Specialist

Technical Leadership & Validation Ownership

• Lead and own validation of complex PrimeTime STA features and flows, from requirement analysis through quality sign-off.
• Define and drive validation strategy, depth, and coverage for assigned functional areas.
• Act as technical lead for L1/L2 engineers, providing guidance on STA concepts, debugging approaches, testcase design, and best practices.
• Review and approve validation plans, testcases, regression results, and quality sign-off metrics.

Product Quality, Debug, and Cross-Team Collaboration

• Drive customer scenario reproduction, deep-dive debugging, and root-cause analysis of complex, cross-component issues.
• Proactively identify product weak areas, corner cases, and scalability/performance risks and ensure early detection.
• Work closely with R&D, Product Engineering, and Field teams to clarify requirements, influence design decisions, validate fixes, and ensure smooth integration.
• Lead functional, regression, stress, accuracy, and sign-off-oriented testing for STA features and advanced flows.

Automation, Data Analysis & AI-Assisted Productivity

• Architect and enhance automation frameworks using Perl, Tcl, and Python to improve productivity, robustness, and validation coverage.
• Analyze large-scale validation and regression data to identify trends, systemic gaps, and improvement opportunities.
• Effectively leverage AI-assisted engineering tools (e.g., VS Code / Cursor-based workflows with multiple LLMs) for:
• Faster testcase and automation script development
• Debug acceleration and hypothesis generation
• Log analysis, flow understanding, and code reviews
• Improving documentation quality and consistency
• Apply sound technical judgment to validate, review, and refine AI-assisted outputs, ensuring correctness, accuracy, and compliance with quality standards.

Communication & Continuous Improvement

• Prepare and present clear, executive-ready validation status, quality metrics, risks, and recommendations.
• Participate in feature readiness reviews, postmortems, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Drive best practices in validation methodology, tooling, and knowledge sharing across the team.

The Impact You Will Have

• Own and drive quality sign-off for critical PrimeTime STA features.
• Significantly reduce customer-reported issues through proactive, risk-based validation.
• Improve tool accuracy, robustness, scalability, and real-world customer readiness.
• Strengthen cross-team alignment by serving as a trusted technical Subject Matter Expert (SME).
• Elevate overall team capability through mentorship, technical leadership, and adoption of modern productivity tools.
• Influence product roadmap and feature decisions through validation-driven insights.

What You’ll Need
