The Opportunity Are you a Quality Assurance expert who views testing as a strategic asset rather than a final hurdle? We are looking for a Senior Testing Analyst to lead the charge in ensuring our mission-critical applications are flawless. This role is perfect for a leader who enjoys a mix of high-level strategy—developing automation frameworks and mentoring junior staff—and "hands-on" technical execution across Web and API environments.
Key Responsibilities
Automation Leadership: Review and overhaul current automation practices, introducing new strategies to maximize test coverage.
Full Lifecycle Testing: Manage the entire testing journey, including system, unit, regression, load, and acceptance testing for both custom-built and vendor software.
Defect Architecture: Not just finding bugs, but analyzing performance/stress results and coordinating defect resolution across the organization.
Agile Collaboration: Drive quality within Agile Scrum sessions, creating user stories and task flows to align development with business needs.
Mentorship: Act as a subject matter expert, coaching junior team members on best practices in manual and automated testing.
Required Qualifications
Clearance: Must be a U.S. Citizen capable of passing a Department of Defense (DoD) background investigation.
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related technical field.
Automation Expertise: 1+ years specifically automating Web-based applications and APIs using TOSCA.
DevOps Integration: 3+ years of experience working with Jenkins and CI/CD pipelines.
Data Proficiency: 3+ years of experience testing ETL, writing, and executing SQL statements.
Experience: 5+ years in QA/Software Testing, with proficiency in tools like Selenium, Katalon, and JIRA/Xray.
Preferred Skills
Experience in the Healthcare sector.
Familiarity with AngularJS or Java.
7+ years of total QA experience.
