Job description

As a test engineer on our team, you’ll use your experience to work with developers and engineers to evaluate software developed for national defense. You’ll create a test plan with test cases based on user stories. Using automation to streamline, you’ll generate data and implement the test cases to observe how the software performs, then document the results and communicate defects to the development team so they can start improving the tool.

You’ll automate continuous security and performance testing and monitor the health of data platforms. This is an opportunity to supercharge your skills by writing the code to test. You’ll also broaden your experience in cloud development and gain skills in new areas such as automation and machine learning while sharing your testing experience with your team.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of experience with Agile release methodologies, test automation, developing frameworks or automated test scripts
  • Experience with software testing, traceability matrices, including continuous integration (CI) or Continuous Delivery (CD) pipeline solutions
  • Experience with developing and configuring automated test scripts and maintaining automated test and test environments
  • Experience with End to End and usability testing
  • TS/SCI clearance
  • HS diploma or GED

Nice If You Have:

  • Experience with functional testing, regression testing, performance testing, 508 testing, or system integration testing
  • Experience with DevOps concepts and integrating regression tests of the CI/CD pipelines
  • Experience with implementing test automation suites
  • Experience with scripting languages, including Python, PowerShell, Bash, PHP, Java, Node, or Ruby
  • Experience with developing data integrity test scripts on databases, including Oracle and PostgreSQL
  • Knowledge of non-functional automation testing tools, including JMeter, SoapUI, Postman, or LoadRunner
  • Ability to manage discrepancies identified during testing and collaborate with the software development team to resolve software bugs
  • Bachelor’s degree in an IT field
  • Security+ Certification
