  • Collaborate with developers, solution architects, and DevOps teams to integrate automated testing into CI/CD pipelines using GitHub, Bitbucket, Jenkins, or GitLab CI/CD
  • Execute risk-based testing, applying risk management techniques to prioritize test coverage and identify high-impact defects
  • Track and report defects, system issues, and test results using configuration management and issue tracking tools such as Jira, Confluence, or equivalent
  • Monitor cloud-based environments for system reliability, performance metrics, and error logs, leveraging AWS CloudWatch and similar observability tools
  • Validate API functionality, performance, security, and integration using tools such as Swagger/OpenAPI and automated testing frameworks
  • Ensure compliance with security requirements including authentication, authorization, encryption, and role-based access control
  • Mentor junior testers, provide guidance on testing best practices, and ensure consistency in test execution across teams
  • Present clear, concise reports of test results and metrics to management, stakeholders, and government personnel
  • Participate in Agile ceremonies including sprint planning, backlog refinement, stand-ups, demos, and retrospectives to align testing efforts with iterative development
  • Support continuous improvement of testing processes, automation frameworks, and cloud testing strategies
Basic Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, IT Security, or a related field
  • 5+ years of experience in quality assurance or software/system testing
  • Hands-on experience in cloud-native application environments, including testing microservices, APIs, databases, and containerized applications
