Key Duties and Responsibilities

• Design and execute test strategies, test cases and test plans for orbital mechanics and aerospace mission simulation software.
• Identify, document and track software defects, working closely with the development team to resolve them.
• Apply technical expertise and engineering background to test design and decision making
• Perform functional, regression, performance, and testing in both manual and automated environments
• Collaborate with developers and domain experts to validate algorithms and mission modeling features
• Automate test activities at the application and systems levels, focusing on space mission use cases
• Expand test coverage of aerospace-specific functionality (e.g., orbit propagation, satellite tracking, maneuver planning)
• Responsible for coverage analysis and testing metrics in specific areas, participate in defect management
• Monitor test results, investigate failures, and perform root cause analysis
• Work in a variety of computing environments: [list, e.g. Windows, Linux, VM’s, Compute Clusters, Cloud]
• Support quality initiatives and ensure product requirements and industry standards are met
