- Weeks 5–8: Take ownership of the testing automation suite — build out coverage across unit, integration, and end-to-end layers, and integrate QA into refinement and sprint execution.
- Weeks 9–12: Establish the team's quality standards and testing processes; begin building out the framework for testing the platform's AI features; established working rhythm with the Tech Lead and wider team.
