• Participate in Agile ceremonies such as sprint planning, backlog refinement, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives.
• Support delivery planning and coordination for application enhancements, releases, and upgrades.
• Develop and execute functional test plans for new features, patches, and system updates.
• Coordinate User Acceptance Testing (UAT) and support business stakeholders through testing and sign-off.
• Ensure changes are validated in non-production environments prior to production deployment.
• Assist with training, documentation, and change-management activities related to system updates and enhancements.
