A QA role focused on translating business requirements and functional analysis into structured, comprehensive test cases in the Front Office. The Calypso QA Analyst works closely with business analysts and functional leads to understand scope and system behavior, then builds the test case library that drives test execution. The role is execution-focused — the QA Analyst does not own the test strategy but is the key contributor to test case quality, coverage, and readiness across all Calypso test phases.
