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 testers, developers, analysts, and CMs to evaluate software developed for the client. You’ll work on creating a test plan with test cases based on user stories. Using both 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 the client’s system.

This is an opportunity to leverage your skills by writing the code to test. You’ll also further your experience in cloud-based platforms and explore new areas as we migrate the client’s program.

Work with us as we develop brand new features and capabilities.

Join us. The world can’t wait.

  • 3+ years of experience in a professional work environment

  • Knowledge of evaluating, testing, and validating of assigned applications, and the development of solutions to resolve problems
