Senior QA Testing & Automation
Location: McLean, Virginia | Contract with potential for extension |
 
The Role
We are seeking a Senior QA Testing & Automation Consultant to support a major modernization program. This role sits within the UAT team and is responsible for ensuring high-quality delivery across User Acceptance Testing (UAT), requirements validation, change management, and cutover readiness.
This is a consultative, client-facing role requiring strong collaboration with both business and technology stakeholders. The ideal candidate will bring a balance of UAT leadership, QA strategy, and automation expertise, with the ability to operate at both a strategic and hands-on level.
 
What You'll Do
  • Lead UAT strategy and execution across the modernization program, including planning, coordination, and governance of UAT activities
  • Act as a bridge between business and technology teams, ensuring requirements are clearly understood, validated, and testable
  • Define and maintain end-to-end traceability from business requirements through test scenarios, execution, and defect resolution
  • Partner with business stakeholders to validate requirements, challenge assumptions, and ensure solutions meet business intent
  • Design, develop, and oversee execution of manual and automated test cases, aligning testing efforts with business-critical outcomes
  • Drive test automation adoption by aligning frameworks (e.g., Selenium, Cypress) to support UAT efficiency and repeatability
  • Manage and assess change requests, performing impact analysis and ensuring appropriate test coverage across affected areas
  • Support cutover planning and execution, including readiness assessments, defect triage, and go-live support
  • Provide UAT status reporting, risk identification, and escalation management to program leadership
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of QA and UAT practices, particularly within large-scale transformation environments
  •  
What We're Looking For
  • Strong consulting background with the ability to operate in a client-facing role, drive discussions, and influence both business and technology stakeholders
  • Background in financial services such as banking & payments with an understanding of regulatory and data-driven testing considerations
  • Proven leadership in User Acceptance Testing (UAT), including planning, coordination, execution oversight, and business validation across complex, enterprise programs
  • Demonstrated experience translating business requirements into end-to-end test strategies, ensuring full traceability from requirements through test execution and defect resolution
  • Ability to challenge, refine, and validate requirements in partnership with business stakeholders, not just test against them
  • Experience managing change requests, impact assessments, and testing scope adjustments within fast-moving delivery environments
  • Hands-on experience with test automation frameworks (e.g., Selenium, Cypress), with the ability to align automation efforts to UAT and business validation goals
  • Strong communication skills with experience working across cross-functional teams, including Product, BA, QA, and Release/Deployment teams
