Quality Assurance Software Developer

The Opportunity:

When a user tries a new system, they expect it to be intuitive and run smoothly. Functionality, reliability, and user experience are key to successful information systems and that means rigorous testing. That’s why we need you, an aspiring quality assurance consultant who’s eager to help thoroughly test software and ensure that our team releases the best system possible. 

As a Quality Assurance Specialist, you’ll work with other testers, analysts, developers, engineers, and stakeholders on a team that evaluates systems for NASA. You’ll help develop and implement a test plan based on software product requirements, functional specifications, and design specifications. You’ll generate problem resolutions and track quality assurance standards to see how the system performs, then document the results and communicate system flaws to the development team so they can start improving the tool. You’ll build your experience in various types of testing, including manual, automation, user acceptance testing, and testing process improvement.

This is an opportunity to broaden your skills in documenting and solving system deficiencies. Are you ready to support the development of systems solutions to support NASA?
