Full job description

Quality Assurance EngineerThe Opportunity: A Digital Twin is only as valuable as the trust users place in it. As a Quality Assurance Engineer, you'll help ensure that the applications, services, data pipelines, and simulations behind a Digital Twin and Modeling and Simulation (M&S) platform for military test ranges perform reliably, accurately, and securely.

You'll own test strategy and execution across web applications, back-end APIs, 3D and geospatial data pipelines, and real-time 3D visualization environments built on game engines. You'll build automated test suites, integrate them into CI/CD pipelines, and verify that releases meet functional, visual, performance, and security requirements before they reach mission users. You'll also help confirm that simulation outputs and 3D content accurately represent the real-world systems and environments they model. You'll work alongside full-stack developers, M&S engineers, platform engineers, and UX practitioners to catch issues early and help build quality into every stage of delivery.

In this role, you'll help define how quality is measured on a complex, emerging platform. You'll also produce the test evidence that supports releases in regulated DoD environments. Help us deliver Digital Twin capabilities that mission users can count on.

Join us. The world can't wait.

You Have:

  • 3+ years of experience in software quality assurance or test engineering
  • Experience developing automated tests for web and desktop applications using tools such as Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, or pytest
  • Experience testing REST APIs using tools such as Postman or REST Assured
  • Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines such as GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, or Jenkins
  • Experience writing test plans, test cases, and defect reports, and tracking them in tools such as Jira or Xray
  • Experience with scripting in Python, C#, or JavaScript
  • Ability to quickly learn engine-specific testing tools
  • Ability to travel up to 25% of the time
  • Ability to obtain a Secret clearance
  • Bachelor's degree

Nice If You Have:

  • Experience testing real-time 3D, simulation, or XR applications using the Unity Test Framework, Unreal Automation Framework, AltTester, or GameDriver
  • Experience with visual regression or image-comparison testing for rendered 3D content
  • Experience profiling real-time application performance using tools such as Unity Profiler, Unreal Insights, or RenderDoc
  • Experience with performance and load testing tools such as k6, JMeter, or Locust
  • Experience validating 3D and geospatial data, including OpenUSD, point clouds, meshes, or GIS formats
  • Experience with M&S verification, validation, and accreditation (VV&A), including comparing simulation outputs against reference data
  • Experience testing cloud-native applications deployed on AWS, including containerized services on Kubernetes
  • Experience with accessibility testing against Section 508 standards, security testing, or supporting DoD ATO test evidence and compliance requirements
  • Secret clearance
  • ISTQB or equivalent Testing Certification
