## Description

When operators rely on Air Force mission-critical software, they expect seamless performance, reliability, and intuitive workflows. Ensuring that level of quality demands rigorous verification, disciplined test planning, and the ability to understand how software behaves in real operational environments. That's why we need you, a Test Engineer who knows how to evaluate complex software systems, validate requirements, and help deliver capabilities that directly support mission readiness.

As a Software Test Engineer on our team, you'll collaborate with developers, system engineers, and government stakeholders to validate software supporting Air Traffic Control and Landing Systems (ATCALS). You'll create test strategies and detailed procedures, trace requirements to verification methods, and execute tests that span functional, integration, regression, performance, and mission-relevant evaluation. You'll document defects, assess operational impact, and help guide improvements throughout the development lifecycle.

Join us as we ensure the reliability and effectiveness of software that keeps air operations safe and mission-ready.
