  • Validate accessibility compliance for API documentation, developer portals, and related interfaces (Section 508/WCAG).
  • Test API version migrations, deprecations, and regression scenarios for updated endpoints.
  • Use API testing tools (Postman, SoapUI, ReadyAPI, or similar) to execute automated and manual test suites.
  • Validate payloads, schema enforcement, authentication behavior, and token flows (OAuth2, SSO).
  • Reproduce and document API defects, integration failures, and unexpected service responses.
  • Maintain API test artifacts, results, regression reports, and traceability documentation.
  • Collaborate with developers, integration engineers, and cybersecurity teams on test outcomes and mitigation actions.
  • Support automated CI/CD integration for API test suites.
  • Participate in Agile ceremonies and provide testing input during planning and refinements.

  • Experience with negative testing, boundary testing, and error-handling validation.
  • Experience supporting regression testing for versioned APIs and integration changes.

Technical Knowledge (Required)
  • Strong knowledge of API testing tools such as Postman, SoapUI, ReadyAPI, or equivalent.
  • Understanding of JSON schemas, OpenAPI/Swagger specifications, and contract enforcement.
  • Familiarity with authentication/authorization testing (OAuth2, JWT, SAML).
  • Knowledge of Section 508/WCAG accessibility testing for UI-facing components (developer portals, documentation interfaces).
  • Understanding of CI/CD integration for automated test suites.

  • Experience in a DoD or federal IT environment.
  • Familiarity with performance testing tools and load testing strategies.
  • Experience validating event-driven or asynchronous API patterns.
