  • Conduct interoperability testing with multi-vendor access points, controllers, clients, and authentication servers.
  • Partner with development teams during design and feature review cycles to provide test input and ensure quality in early stages.
  • Document test cases, test results, defect reports, release readiness assessments, and validation summaries.
  • Support continuous integration and continuous testing pipelines, contributing to automated regression suites and stability metrics.
  • Ensure WLAN features meet compliance, certification, and performance benchmarks, including security, mobility, latency, and power-saving requirements.

  • 3–5 years of hands-on experience working in WLAN testing, network validation, or wireless QA.
  • Strong understanding of WLAN standards a/b/g/n/ac/ax), RF concepts, channel behavior, and wireless security protocols.
  • Proven expertise in 802.1X authentication, RADIUS flows, EAP types, certificate handling, and secure onboarding.
  • Practical experience validating WPA/WPA2/WPA3 security frameworks and policies.
  • Solid programming experience in Python, including automation scripting, test framework development, and log analysis.
