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.

Using software quality assurance, you'll generate problem resolutions and track quality assurance standards to observe how the applications perform, then document the results and communicate defects to the development team so they can start improving the tool. You'll expand upon your experience in various types of testing, including manual, automated, usability, user acceptance testing, and testing process improvement. This is a chance to broaden your skills in documenting and solving system deficiencies, leading and mentoring others, estimating testing efforts, etc. This position is located in Atlanta, GA.
