Description
Ajilon Consulting has been a premier provider of information technology (IT) business solutions since 1969. With over 50 offices in North America and 10,000 employees worldwide, Ajilon Consulting is a company full of opportunities and exciting new challenges.

We are currently seeking a Software Test Engineer for a contract in Morrisville, NC, with an initial term of 6 months. Will work with a small development team to test cutting edge platform software. Automated testing will be constructed and used wherever possible. Using a combination of high level functional design specifications, and Agile development techniques, this individual will create Feature/System Level Test Plans, identify hardware and test equipment requirements, and perform testing to achieve project milestones. Testing will involve integration of multiple devices into a customer like environment. Products under test may include Linux, and proprietary operating systems running in a virtual machine environment. The virtual machine environment will be hosted on custom servers, Advanced Telecommunications Computer Architecture (ATCA) equipment, or Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) servers or blades.

Engineer must be able to:

. Assume responsibility for software release verification, including responsibility for test scheduling, work assignments, and reporting back to management.

. Perform reviews of technical documentation, including design specifications, test plans and customer documentation, and provide feedback to the author through review meetings and written feedback.

. Perform testing of installation, upgrade, and back out of platform software on custom, ATCA, and COTS servers.

. Perform testing of system configuration of custom, ATCA, and COTS servers, switches, console devices, and SAN/NAS devices.

. Perform testing on networks using high availability solutions such as Ethernet port bonding and heartbeats over serial and Ethernet, test database administration and replications, and system maintenance related features in accordance with technical specifications. Tester will need a good understanding of layer 2 and layer 2 of the OSI model and experience with MAC Addresses, ARP, RARP, SNMP V2 and V3.

. Perform testing on software and hardware RAID configurations, system diagnostics, and disaster recovery of Linux systems and SAN/NAS devices.

. Work with development and product management to complete a software release cycle by prioritizing mandatory Problem Reports (PRs) based on severity and need, creating and executing a schedule to complete PR closeout, and participating in a post mortem to identify needed improvements in the testing process.

. Write automated test cases for performing testing of APIs and regression test using Perl, Expect, BASH, and TCL.

Due to working with Agile methodologies at multiple development / test locations, superior oral and written communications skills are needed to deliver a high quality software/firmware release. The ability to work productively with senior level developers is critical to success in this job.
