QA Engineer in Southern CT

Hi All,

There are a couple of QA Engineering roles available for those with SQL talent and an interest for Fund Management or Investment banking. I'm sourcing and reviewing resumes for this role. Here are the specifics.

Qualifications:

Candidates need to be quick to understand concepts, break them into logical components.
Candidates will need to process diverse sets of information, filter the irrelevant content and reach reasonable conclusions based on the input.
Communication Ability-They must be able to articulate their views clearly and succinctly. Need to create documentation, procedures, etc. in clear, crisp English.

SQL Developer skills
o needs SQL . The individual needs to be able to do selects, joins, aggregate function and have the ability to apply CRUD functions.
General Dev skills
o Candidate needs to be able to read C# (ideally) or other OO code (Java, C++) to understand what the code is doing in order to write white box tests. They will need this to create boundary conditions tests (when code fails at the corner/extreme cases) or other cases that rely on knowing how the code works to test it. It uses an internal perspective of the system to design test cases based on internal structure. To be successful in writing white box tests, “programming” skills are required to identify all paths through the software.
o Although we do not require that the candidate codes, if they do not have the business experience (General FS knowledge) we will expect them to be able to write test scripts and/or test automation code.

QA Design aptitude (must have) but not necessarily direct QA experience
Need individuals who can combine their SQL, general development and architecture knowledge to provide complete test cases and drive high quality code.
Ability to construct logical test cases that break down the application/solution in a comprehensive manner to ensure full coverage. They need to write black box tests that take an external perspective of the test object to derive test cases. These tests can be functional or non-functional. They will need to holistically understand and drive how QA fits into all aspects of the software development lifecycle.

Business Knowledge (preferred)
It would be ideal to have candidates who have an understanding of financial products and experience in the financial services space. Within financial services, they are ideally looking for individuals who have knowledge of the fund management and/or investment banking space with global product exposure.
