Validate critical student workflows, including login, course enrollment, lesson progression, assignments, and grading
Investigate technical issues reported by students, teachers, and internal teams, and create clear, reproducible bug reports
Develop and maintain automated tests for core LMS workflows, and reduce manual testing through automation
Use AI-assisted testing tools responsibly to accelerate test creation, coverage, and triage
Help test critical revenue workflows in course purchasing and checkout, ensuring reliable payment processing and enrollment
Ensure student-facing interfaces meet WCAG accessibility standards, and test across major browsers and devices
