Test Engineer, Senior

The Opportunity:

When a user tries new software, they expect it to be intuitive and run smoothly. Functionality, reliability, and user experience are key to successful software development – and that means rigorous testing. That’s why we need you, an experienced test engineer who knows how to thoroughly test software and work with developers to make sure our team releases the best software possible. 

As a test engineer on our team, you’ll work with developers, systems engineers, network IT engineers, information security engineers, and project managers to develop software for a Department of Defense client. You’ll oversee the building of test strategies and plans with test cases based on user stories. Using automated and manual processes, you’ll generate data and execute the test cases to see how the software performs, then document the results and communicate defects to the development team so they can improve the tool. You’ll automate continuous security and performance testing and monitor the health of a cloud-based mission planning tool. This is an opportunity to share your skills with a team as they write the code to test the code. You’ll also broaden your team’s experience in cloud development, exploring new areas such as automation and cloud computing that will benefit you, your team, and your client.

Work with us as we develop software solutions critical to national security.
