• Perform automated security and vulnerability testing using SAST/DAST tools where appropriate.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies including backlog refinement, sprint planning, daily standups, reviews, and retrospectives.
• Contribute to test environment setup, test data management, and configuration baselines.
