Job Description

Our Project Management Office team, within our expansive Technology department, is looking to bring on an experienced QA engineer on-site for a contract position to work closely with stakeholders to write and execute manual test cases, automate those test cases, and report on the results in a Microsoft environment with multiple complex projects.


The right person for this opportunity will be a self-starter with a can-do attitude-a creative problem solver with strong analytical skills. Our workplace environment is fast-paced, so the ability to stay on top of multiple projects is essential.


As a QA contractor, your responsibilities would include:
Writing test plans and test cases

  • Reporting, analyzing, and tracking defects
  • Assisting with software releases
  • Running SQL queries to validate results
  • Working closely with other QA members, Development, and stakeholders
  • Potentially participating in a scrum team

The ideal candidate would also meet the following requirements:
2-5 years' testing experience in information services/technology
  • Proficiency with basic SQL queries
  • Experience working in a Microsoft environment; TFS and Visual Studio experience a plus
  • Familiarity with testing web-based applications; SaaS a plus
  • Experience with bug tracking systems, particularly TFS
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
Experience with the following would be a plus:
Financial services
  • Agile methodology
  • .NET, and/or JavaScript

We are not your typical financial services firm. For starters, we're a fast-growing company with 30 percent of our company headcount in technology. We've been recognized as a Best Place to Work 28 times-and counting-and Computerworld has ranked us highly nationwide for the past eight years as one of the best places to work in IT-and for good reason. We think and have fun like a startup (bocce tournament, annual turkey fry, summer boat cruise, etc.), yet have the financial stability to offer you the best training and technology money can buy. Conveniently located on the commuter rail near the intersection of Route 95 and the Mass Pike, we're accessible from anywhere-and away from the congestion of a downtown commute.
