• Ensuring requirements traceability according to the Requirements Management Plan.

• Integrating components from various development teams and preparing validation platforms.

• Using automation scripts and batch files to streamline integration and validation tasks.

• Producing validation result reports and associated change requests (defects).

• Contributing to standardization by reusing or implementing reusable solutions.

• Maintaining strong links with architects and designers throughout the software validation cycle.

• Applying organizational processes and standards.
