**Job Description:**

Parsons is seeking a **Mid-Level QA Automation Test Engineer** to join our Mission Solutions modeling and simulation development team. You will help ensure the quality, reliability, and usability of a modern application that integrates intelligence-informed, medium- to high-fidelity threat system models into a wargame simulation environment supporting a critical national defense mission.

- Build end-to-end, functional, integration, and regression test coverage for a React and TypeScript application.
- Create reusable automation frameworks, fixtures, utilities, test data, and reporting components.
- Test web and Electron-based workflows, including navigation, forms, dialogs, tables, validation, accessibility, error handling, window behavior, and file access.
- Validate Cesium-based geospatial capabilities, including map navigation, terrain, imagery, layers, entity interactions, visualization, and coordinate-based workflows.
- Maintain BDD feature files and TypeScript step definitions with traceability to system requirements.
- Analyze test results, troubleshoot failures, and distinguish application defects from test automation or environmental issues.
- Document defects clearly and collaborate with developers through resolution and verification.
- Conduct exploratory and risk-based testing to identify usability issues, edge cases, and defects not covered by automation.
- Support regression testing, release qualification, and continuous improvement of test execution and reporting.
- Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines and improve test stability, efficiency, and reliability.
- Participate in Agile ceremonies and peer reviews, including sprint planning, backlog refinement, standups, demonstrations, retrospectives, and reviews of test artifacts and automation code.
- Provide technical guidance to junior QA engineers and contribute to team-wide QA standards, processes, and testing methodologies.

**What Required Skills You'll Bring:**

- Must be a U.S. Citizen.
- Must be willing and able to obtain and maintain a security clearance up to Top Secret/SCI, which Parsons may sponsor and/or maintain.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Technology, or a related technical field and 5+ years of experience in software quality assurance, software testing, test automation, or a related engineering role. _Additional years of experience may be considered in lieu of a degree._
- Strong understanding of software testing principles, methodologies, and the software development lifecycle.
- Professional experience with TypeScript or JavaScript and an automated testing framework such as Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, or a comparable tool.
- Experience developing and maintaining automated UI, end-to-end, functional, and regression tests.
- Experience with Cucumber, Gherkin, or other behavior-driven development practices.
- Experience testing React applications or comparable component-based user interfaces.
- Experience creating and executing test cases, analyzing results, reporting defects, and maintaining traceability to requirements.
- Strong problem-solving, troubleshooting, debugging, written communication, and verbal communication skills.
- Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in an Agile development environment.
- Ability to learn and test complex software systems in technical, mission-focused environments.

**What Desired Skills You'll Bring:**

- Experience designing or extending automation frameworks using TypeScript, Playwright, and Cucumber/Gherkin.
- Experience testing complex React workflows and Material UI components.
- Experience testing Electron desktop applications, including window behavior, application configuration, file access, or packaging.
- Familiarity with Vite or similar modern frontend build tools.
- Experience with Cesium, geographic information systems, virtual globes, mapping applications, or other geospatial interfaces.
- Experience testing map-based capabilities such as panning, zooming, layer visibility, entity selection, terrain, imagery, dynamic visualization, and coordinate workflows.
- Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, or a comparable platform.
- Proficiency with Git and collaborative source-control workflows.
- Familiarity with Jira, Azure DevOps, GitLab, or other test management and defect-tracking tools.
