Quality Assurance Engineer

Overview

We're looking for a Quality Engineer to serve as the gatekeeper of PowerPlan's product releases — providing the quality seal of approval before deployment and helping keep our technology market-leading. If you have a genuine interest in technology, finance, and software testing, this role puts you on projects that ship cutting-edge capability to real customers.

You'll operate as a member of a Scrum team, conducting manual and automated testing within an Agile, CI/CD development process, and helping evolve the automation frameworks the whole team relies on.

Responsibilities

Success will be measured by how much the team trusts your release sign-off, and by how much your automation framework grows because you keep finding what's worth automating.

• Perform functional, application, regression, and performance tests to ensure products meet design specifications, customer requirements, and PowerPlan standards.
• Enhance existing automation frameworks by adding new functions and identifying reusable components.
• Create automated test cases using tools such as Selenium and Ranorex.
• Identify test data, test environment setup, and configurations needed to prepare for testing.
• Proactively identify roadblocks, create mitigation plans, and work across teams to resolve them.
• Operate as a working member of a Scrum team, conducting manual and automated testing throughout the CI/CD process.

Qualifications

• Experience with programming in Java, .NET, or other languages.
• Knowledge of XML and relational databases (Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL).
• Experience implementing test scripts within a Continuous Integration and/or Delivery pipeline (e.g., BitBucket, Bamboo, Nexus, Octopus).
• Experience with test management tools such as qTest or Jira.
• Experience with API/web service testing tools such as SoapUI or Postman.
• Experience with key enterprise applications, including ERP, EAM, CRM, and Maximo.
• Understanding of system and network architecture, system platforms, database design, SQL queries, and network protocols.
• Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify issues of varying complexity and find effective solutions with few guidelines.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Math, Accounting, a technical certification, or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience.

Preferred

• ISTQB or similar software testing certification.
• Experience with performance or load testing tools (JMeter, LoadRunner).
• Exposure to financial, tax, or accounting domain testing.
