Job description

We are looking for a Quality Assurance Tester to support software quality initiatives for focused applications. This contract opportunity is ideal for a hands-on testing specialist who can build and execute effective test strategies while working across technical environments that include C#/.NET and Node.js. The role will focus on identifying defects, validating application changes, and helping ensure reliable system performance through structured testing and clear documentation.

Responsibilities:

  • Create and carry out detailed test approaches, cases, and scripts to evaluate application behavior and uncover issues before release.

  • Assess new features, updates, and system changes to confirm readiness for deployment and reduce production risk.

  • Develop testing coverage for functional workflows, database interactions, usability considerations, and application performance scenarios.

  • Record defects in a tracking system with clear reproduction steps, supporting evidence, and impact details for development teams.

  • Investigate inconsistencies in program output, on-screen behavior, and content accuracy to isolate root causes and document findings.

  • Follow defect remediation progress, verify fixes, and report on testing outcomes to stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle.

  • Maintain organized records of known issues, test results, and quality metrics to support efficient regression testing.

  • Coordinate testing timelines and priorities in alignment with project scope, release schedules, and delivery milestones.

Requirements

Requirements * Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical discipline.

  • 5-7 years of experience in software quality assurance, test execution, and defect management.

  • Hands-on experience with either C#/.NET, Node.js, or both, with the ability to test applications in those environments.

  • Working knowledge of bug tracking tools, test documentation practices, and database-related testing.

  • Ability to communicate clearly in both written and verbal formats with technical and non-technical teams.

  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to manage tasks independently within deadline-driven projects.

  • Familiarity with software and system concepts across areas such as JavaScript, Linux, and general application development processes.
