  • Review and decompose Business Requirement Documents (BRDs) and functional specifications to derive complete, traceable UAT coverage.
  • Design and maintain UAT test scenarios, test cases, and test data for card issuance, transaction processing, settlements, disputes, rewards & loyalty, and other card functionalities.
  • Validate end-to-end card transaction flows across multiple systems (CMS, authorisation, clearing & settlement, scheme networks, and partner integrations).
  • Document, track, and close defects using Azure DevOps (and/or JIRA), maintaining a clean audit trail of artefacts and test evidence.
  • Execute regression testing following defect fixes and release candidates, ensuring no regression of in-life card functionality.

  • Prepare UAT execution reports, requirement traceability matrices, and secure formal business signoff prior to production release.
