Full Job Description
Senior Test Engineer (SAT, SIT, Performance)
Remote
Responsibilities:
Validates a Sprint Palantir Foundry proof of concept end to end, verifying that data migrated from a legacy U.S. Army system flows correctly through the Foundry pipeline and into a target-system-consumable format
Plans and executes System Acceptance Testing (SAT) against customer acceptance criteria, and plans and facilitates customer validation and sign-off
Performs System Integration Testing (SIT) of the bidirectional interfaces and the full end-to-end path into target-system-consumable output
Conducts performance testing of pipeline/ETL throughput on the change data capture (CDC) workload across approximately 40 normalized, time-variant tables, and establishes baseline performance metrics for the migrated flow
Performs source-to-target data reconciliation (row- and field-level integrity) between the legacy system snapshot and the Palantir Foundry target
Executes schema-conformance, data-quality, validation-rule, data-profiling, and completeness testing to confirm nothing is lost or transformed incorrectly in migration
Develops test plans, test cases, and requirements traceability; logs, triages, and retests defects
Executes testing incrementally alongside the build on the Agile sprint cadence, running regression as pipelines iterate and applying automated test and validation tooling where available
Performs testing within a NIPRNet test environment, with the current scope focused on unidirectional ingest
Requirements:
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field (equivalent experience may be considered)
5+ years of software testing and quality assurance experience, including data migration, ETL, or data pipeline validation
Hands-on experience planning and executing System Integration Testing (SIT), acceptance testing (SAT/UAT), and performance testing
Experience with source-to-target data reconciliation, data profiling, and SQL-based data validation
Experience with test planning, test case design, requirements traceability, and defect logging, triage, and retest
Experience testing incrementally within Agile/sprint-based delivery, including regression testing
Develop and execute software test plans in order to identify software problems and their causes
Possesses and applies a comprehensive knowledge across key tasks and high impact assignments
Plans and leads major technology assignments
Evaluates performance results and recommends major changes affecting short-term project growth and success
Functions as a technical expert across multiple project assignments
May supervise others
An active Secret security clearance is required
Preferred Qualifications:
Any Palantir Foundry certification or credential
Experience testing Army data migrations or ERP/personnel systems
Experience working in NIPRNet test environments
Experience with automated test and data-validation tooling
CompTIA Security+ or equivalent DoD 8570/8140 baseline certification
