  • Collaborate closely with application owners, development, and integration teams to understand platform-specific customizations, data models, and integration requirements.
  • Drive the adoption of Quality Assurance best practices, including shift-left testing, performance testing, and security testing within a cloud-based, integrated environment.
  • Conduct training sessions and knowledge-sharing workshops for development and QA teams on automation tools and techniques specific to SaaS platforms, including emerging AI-driven tools.
  • Stay current with emerging trends and technologies in software testing and quality assurance, particularly those applicable to enterprise applications like Salesforce and NetSuite.
  • Participate in requirement reviews, design discussions, and sprint planning meetings, with a focus on cross-system impacts.
  • Manage and prioritize the backlog of automated test failures and collaborate with development and integration teams to expedite resolution.

Minimum Qualifications:

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
