Description

The Test Engineer plays a critical role in software validation by designing, executing, and assisting with the maintenance of test cases to ensure the system meets defined requirements, perform as intended, and is free of defects prior to deployments. This position is responsible for software verification and validation (V&V) activities, ensuring that enterprise systems meet functional performance, and compliance requirements – particularly for U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) programs. The Test Engineer will support formal and informal testing while ensuring the collection of Objective Quality Evidence (OQE) to support system certification and accreditation. The ideal candidate brings at least 2 years of relevant experience in software testing, validation and test automation within complex IT enterprise systems such as Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), or similar platforms in regulated settings – and possesses hands-on experience developing and maintaining automated test scripts.

Support end-to-end validation efforts across integrated systems, including PLM, ERP, and interface/data exchange processes. Support in the coordination and completion of internal testing activities (e.g., smoke, system, functional and regression testing) to ensure timely development completion and quality devlivery of software. Ensure all testing activities produce appropriate OQE artifacts in support of DoD compliance requirements. Identify, document, and track defects, working closely with development and functional teams to support resolution and retesting. Analyze test results and provide clear, concise status updates and report to the Test Lead. Ensure traceability between requirements, test cases, and defects to align with DoD validation requirements. Assist in building and expanding the regression test suite to support ongoing releases and system changes. Collaborate with cross-functional teams (e.g., QA, IT, business users) to ensure alignment of testing scope, data, and expected outcomes. Contribute to the continuous improvement of testing processes, tools, and methodologies to increase efficiency and quality. Required Qualifications: Active U.S. Security Clearance (or ability to obtain one).
