Job summary

CAI is seeking a QA/Disaster Recovery Test Engineer to execute test plans and lead DR cycles for an AWS GovCloud hosting environment supporting a state government health and human services client.

This role collaborates with the Technical Development Lead and DevOps/SRE, with concentrated involvement during initial build/transition and recurring

Qualifications

• Hands-on AWS GovCloud (US) experience — not commercial AWS alone.

• Experience in HIPAA-regulated or PHI-scale environments
• AWS certification

Responsibilities

• Execute test plans validating disaster-recovery failover across two GovCloud regions against defined recovery-point and recovery-time objectives
• Lead recurring DR test cycles, documenting results and tracking remediation items to closure
• Validate data integrity after failover or migration events — row counts, checksums, referential integrity, and dashboard output comparison against the source environment
• Support cutover rehearsals during transition, including rollback-procedure validation
• Partner with the Technical Development Lead and DevOps/SRE team on test environment setup
