QA Tester

At i360technologies, we deliver business consulting and technology solutions that support the mission of federal agencies.

Key Responsibilities

• Draft the PoC test strategy aligned to client's acceptance criteria and contract QASP standards.
• Define acceptance-criteria templates and Definition of Done (DoD) quality gates for all user stories and epics.
• Plan the automated test framework and coverage approach for Unqork modules and workflows.
• Prepare baseline test data sets and UAT environment specifications.
• Align the defect-management workflow in JIRA across all team members.
• Build, maintain, and continuously expand automated test suites targeting Unqork modules, workflows, and API integrations.
• Execute functional, regression, integration, and performance test cycles each sprint against the Government CI/CD pipeline.
• Validate all sprint acceptance criteria before each sprint demo; block sign-off on any open Severity-1 defect.
• Manage the full defect lifecycle in JIRA: triage, severity assignment, assignment to owners, status tracking, and aging reports.
• Partner with the Senior Software Developer on performance and security test execution, including load tests at 2× expected concurrency (1,000 named users).
• Coordinate Pre-ATO security control assessment evidence capture.
• Lead UAT facilitation in Sprint 6: stand up the UAT environment ≥3 business days before kick-off, manage defect resolution cadence (Sev-1 ≤2 days, Sev-2 ≤5 days, Sev-3 ≤10 days), and capture sign-off evidence.
• Execute the release-readiness checklist before every production deployment: confirm ≥80% code coverage, all critical tests passing, UAT sign-off captured, ATO artifacts current, and deployment runbook validated.
• Contribute defect metrics and test-results summaries to the monthly COR report.

• Hands-on experience writing and executing automated tests against low-code or no-code platforms (preferably Unqork).
• Proficiency building and maintaining automated test suites within a CI/CD pipeline; familiarity with tools such as Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, Postman/Newman, or platform-native test frameworks.
• Experience executing QA activities within two-week Scrum sprints, including sprint demos, retrospectives, and backlog refinement.
• Proficiency with JIRA for defect lifecycle management, test coverage tracking, and sprint metrics reporting.
• Experience designing and executing load and performance tests; familiarity with tools such as JMeter, Gatling, Locust, or equivalent.
• Demonstrated experience testing applications in a federal cloud environment (AWS GovCloud preferred) with awareness of FISMA, NIST 800-53, and ATO/A&A processes.
• Ability to plan, coordinate, and facilitate UAT sessions with Government stakeholders and document evidence for release dates.
