  • Proven ability to perform UX evaluations such as heuristic assessments, task flows, and usability reviews, translating findings into actionable recommendations;
  • Hands-on experience integrating accessibility and UX testing into Agile delivery cycles, including sprint planning, release validation, and regression testing;
  • Practical experience managing defects and test artefacts in Azure DevOps, including writing clear, reproducible bug reports and tracking resolution;
  • Working knowledge of assistive technologies (e.g., JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, Axe, Lighthouse, screen readers) and how users interact with web content using these tools;
  • Experience contributing to or applying design systems, accessibility guidelines, or testing standards within a digital product environment;
  • Experience identifying process and product issues, recommending practical improvements that enhance efficiency and user outcomes.
