As a QA Tester at our organization, you will play a crucial role in ensuring the quality and reliability of our Mainframe-based applications. Your responsibilities will include analyzing functional requirements and translating them into comprehensive test scenarios and cases. You will be involved in conducting testing on Mainframe applications, including job execution and data validation. To excel in this role, you will need to utilize tools such as JIRA, HP ALM/QC, or similar platforms to manage test plans, defects, and reporting. Collaboration with business analysts, developers, and stakeholders is key to understanding business processes and delivering thorough test coverage. You will participate in defect triage and provide accurate test reports and metrics. Experience in testing Mainframe applications (COBOL, JCL, DB2, CICS) is essential for this position. Familiarity with message validation and file-based interfaces (XML, MX/MT messages, etc.) will be beneficial. A solid understanding of test lifecycle and methodologies (Agile/Waterfall) is required. Proficiency in test management tools like JIRA, HP ALM, or Zephyr is expected, along with strong SQL/database query skills. Your excellent communication and documentation skills will be put to good use in this role. You will also be supporting UAT and post-deployment verification in production-like environments. Your hands-on experience in QA functional testing will be an asset to our team.
