What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Test Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Test Engineer, you need a solid background in software or hardware testing principles, quality assurance processes, and often a relevant engineering degree. Familiarity with automated testing tools (such as Selenium, JUnit, or LabVIEW), bug tracking systems, and scripting languages is typically required, along with certifications like ISTQB being advantageous. Attention to detail, analytical thinking, and strong problem-solving skills are crucial soft skills for this role. These abilities ensure accurate identification of defects, efficient test execution, and delivery of reliable, high-quality products.

How does a Test Engineer typically collaborate with development teams during the software development lifecycle?

Test Engineers work closely with software developers throughout the development process, often participating in daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and review meetings. They provide feedback on testability of new features, design and execute test cases, and report defects directly to the development team. This close collaboration ensures that quality is built into the product from the outset and that issues are identified and resolved quickly, which helps maintain efficient release schedules and high product reliability.

What are Test Engineers?

Test Engineers are professionals who design, develop, and execute tests to ensure the quality and functionality of products, systems, or software. They identify bugs, defects, or areas for improvement by running various test scenarios and analyzing results. Test Engineers work closely with development teams to understand requirements and ensure that products meet required standards before release. Their role is crucial in delivering reliable and high-quality products to customers.

Description

SAIC is seeking a Journeyman DoD Hardware and Software Test Engineer to support the planning, coordination, and execution of test activities for hardware and software systems within Department of Defense (DoD) programs in Huntsville, AL. Working in rapid prototyping environments, this role assists senior engineers and program leadership in ensuring test efforts comply with DoD standards and mission requirements. The engineer collaborates with development teams, system engineers, and government stakeholders to validate system performance in both laboratory and operational test settings. Some travel (approximately 10%) may be required to support test events, field data collection, or stakeholder engagements.

The Journeyman DoD Hardware and Software Test Engineer will be responsible for but not limited to the following duties:

  • Contribute to the development of test plans, procedures, and strategies to ensure compliance with applicable DoD test standards and MILSTD requirements.
  • Execute testing activities, collect data, support results analysis, and assist with documenting and tracking defects.
  • Work with system architects, developers, and hardware engineers to help develop test cases that model real‑world operating conditions.
  • Support iterative test cycles used in rapid prototyping environments to provide timely feedback and enable continuous product improvement.
  • Assist senior test engineers in generating updates, test documentation, risk assessments, and traceability artifacts.
  • Collaborate with Quality Assurance (QA) teams to ensure proper configuration management and adherence to testing protocols.
  • Participate in efforts to improve test processes, recommend automation opportunities, and contribute to efficiencies in prototype and production testing.
  • Support test events and data collection at remote test sites, as required (approx. 10% travel).

Qualifications

Required Education:

  • Bachelor's degree and two (2) years’ experience; additional four (4) years’ experience can be considered in lieu of degree.

Required Clearance:

  • Must possess an active Secret security clearance with the ability to maintain; US Citizenship required.

Required Skills:

  • 3–5 years of experience in hardware or software testing within defense or other highly regulated industries.
  • Familiarity with DoD program environments; exposure to mission engineering or integration activities is a plus.
  • Experience supporting test planning, execution, and working with test automation frameworks.
  • Strong analytical and troubleshooting abilities for hardware and software issues.
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills for supporting interactions with technical teams and government stakeholders.
  • Proficiency with test tools, simulation environments, and data analysis applications.

Desired Skills or Required Certifications:

  • Certified Tester Foundation Level (CTFL) or demonstrable equivalent knowledge (required).
  • Familiarity with tactical network environments or interest in learning the communications, interoperability, and security challenges in battlefield system testing.
  • Understanding of agile/scrum methodologies and/or CI/CD environments.
  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to support multiple projects in a fast-paced environment.
  • A proactive mindset with strong problem-solving skills and willingness to learn advanced DoD testing practices.
