Job Description

We are looking for a detail oriented QA Test Engineer to join our offshore modernization team. You will be responsible for validating the transition of an enterprise legacy application (Visual RPG) to a modern .NET and Angular stack. Your primary focus will be executing comprehensive test plans that cover functional, regression, and integration testing, with a heavy emphasis on data integrity and healthcare compliance.

Key Responsibilities
  • Test Execution: Execute manual and automated test cases across the full application stack (Angular UI, .NET APIs, and SQL Server backend).
  • Regression Testing: Perform rigorous regression testing to ensure that modernized features maintain the exact business logic and functionality of the legacy system.
  • Database Validation: Write and execute SQL queries to verify that data is correctly processed, stored, and retrieved in the modernized database schema.
  • API Testing: Validate backend services using Postman or Swagger, ensuring that API responses meet defined contracts and handle errors gracefully.
  • Defect Reporting: Identify, document, and track software defects in Azure DevOps/Jira, providing clear steps to reproduce and supporting developers in the debugging process.
  • Collaboration: Work closely with .NET and Angular developers in an Agile environment to understand new features and provide immediate feedback on quality.
Required Technical Skills
  • Experience: 4+ years of professional experience in Software Testing (Manual and Automated).
  • Backend/API Testing: Proficiency in testing RESTful APIs and understanding JSON/XML data structures.
  • Database Skills: Strong ability to write SQL queries (Joins, Unions, and Aggregate functions) for backend data validation.
  • Automation Tools: Hands on experience with automation tools such as Selenium, Playwright, or Cypress.
Industry Experience Requirements
  • Healthcare Domain: Minimum 2+ years of experience testing healthcare applications.
  • Compliance Knowledge: Basic understanding of HIPAA regulations regarding Patient Health Information (PHI) and data privacy.
