Software Test Engineer
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, a knowledgeable 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 to evaluate software developed for the Air Force. You'll work on creating a test plan with test cases based on user stories. Using automated and manual processes, you'll generate data and implement the test cases to observe how the software performs, then document the results and communicate defects to the development team so they can start improving the tool. You'll automate continuous security and performance testing and monitor the health of our developed tools.
This is an opportunity to leverage your skills by writing the code to test. You'll also further your experience in cloud development and explore new areas like automation.
Work with us as we develop software solutions to improve our national defense.
Join us. The world can't wait.
You Have:
3+ years of experience with technical quality assurance, including creation of test cases, test suites, requirements traceability, and end-of-test reports
Experience using Atlassian Jira for test case and defect management
Experience with open-source automation tools, such as Selenium or Playwright
