## Description

Concept Plus is seeking a Test Engineer to support client IT systems across development, operations, and modernization initiatives. This role requires a strong understanding of client technology environments, including DevSecOps CI/CD pipelines, Cloud One environments, and Oracle/Java-based systems operating across classified and unclassified DISA and cloud environments.

The Test Engineer plays a key role in validating system functionality, performance, and integration within a DevSecOps environment. This position works closely with development teams, Cloud Engineering, DevSecOps resources, Product Owners, and the Program Management Office (PMO) to ensure testing is integrated into the delivery lifecycle, supports automated validation within CI/CD pipelines, and ensures solutions meet quality, security, and mission requirements.

What you'll do

 * Design, develop, and execute test cases and test plans for system, integration, and regression testing
 * Design, implement, and maintain secure CI/CD pipelines using tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI, or Azure DevOps to automate build, test, and deployment workflows.
 * Embed security tools-such as SAST, DAST, and container scanning into the pipeline to ensure compliance and vulnerability management. Develop and execute automated test scripts for software validation, including performance and security testing.
 * Enforce client cybersecurity standards (STIGs, RMF) and perform automated compliance testing within the DevOps lifecycle.
 * Validate system functionality, performance, and data integrity across environments
 * Collaborate with developers, QA, DevSecOps, and Cloud Engineering teams to support end-to-end delivery
 * Identify, document, and track defects, ensuring timely resolution
 * Participate in Agile ceremonies and support backlog refinement from a testing perspective
 * Ensure test coverage and traceability aligned to requirements
 * Support validation of APIs, integrations, and system interfaces
 * Contribute to test data preparation and environment readiness
 * Promote continuous improvement in testing processes and tools
 * Work with development and operations teams to monitor application performance and provide root cause analysis for security issues.
