  • Experience building and executing test plans for web-based, service-based, or enterprise software systems.
  • Experience working in Agile software development environments.
  • Strong understanding of defect lifecycle management, test documentation, release readiness, and quality metrics.
  • Experience collaborating effectively with developers, product owners, systems engineers, and program leadership.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to present quality status and risks clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Ability to balance hands-on testing leadership with team management responsibilities in a fast-paced mission environment.

Desired:
  • Experience supporting GEOINT, ISR, intelligence analysis, or other mission systems in the national security domain.
  • Experience with automated test frameworks and CI/CD-integrated testing practices.
  • Experience testing microservices, APIs, containerized applications, and cloud-hosted or hybrid environments.
  • Familiarity with DevSecOps pipelines and modern software delivery practices.
  • Experience with tools such as Jira, Confluence, GitLab, Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, Postman, or similar testing and collaboration platforms.
  • Experience supporting formal verification, accreditation, or operational test events.
