Description

We are seeking a Senior Quality Analyst to play a key role in a highly specialized, mission-critical elections system project. This position is deeply embedded with a single state agency customer , providing end-to-end quality assurance and ensuring delivery excellence on a unique codebase within a highly visible governance context.

What Makes This Role Special

  • Embedded in Customer Project : Deliver directly alongside the state election / business services office, with their full context and delivery expectations guiding your day-to-day work.
  • High-Impact Delivery : Ensure robustness of systems that support election operations and business operations and ethics oversight-quality is both essential and visible.
  • Quality Leadership : As the senior QA voice, shape testing strategy, tooling, metrics, and QA culture in collaboration with both Civix and the state team.

Key Responsibilities

Shift-Left & Early QA Involvement

  • Engage in story development and backlog refinement sessions with the customer and dev team to define clear, testable acceptance criteria (ACs) early.
  • Use risk-based testing to prioritize test coverage where it matters most.
  • Comprehensive Test Strategy

  • Design and maintain test plans and cases for manual and automated testing across dev, UAT, and production environments.
  • Balance exploratory and usability testing with automation, reflecting agile best practices.
  • Test Automation & Framework Evolution

  • Define and expand an automation strategy that handles regression, API, performance, and accessibility tests.
  • Drive continuous testing as part of CI / CD pipelines-supporting frequent, reliable validation.
  • Metrics & Continuous Improvement

  • Track and report key quality metrics-defect density, automation coverage, MTTR, leakages, and test execution trends.
  • Use these insights to iterate on the QA process, tools, and strategic direction.
  • Alignment of Requirements and Validation

  • Ensure traceability from requirements through to validation (verification & validation alignment).
  • Help mitigate miscommunication risks between evolving requirements and QA testing scope.
  • Adaptive Agile Practice

  • Participate in sprint planning, refining, and retrospectives to adjust QA approach iteratively.
  • Encourage cross-functional collaboration and responsiveness to changing priorities.
  • Mentorship & Leadership

  • Mentor junior QA staff and help expand QA capabilities within the customer team.
  • Act as the QA champion within an embedded agile environment.
  • Requirements

    Requirements

    Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree (or equivalent) in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field.
  • 5+ years of QA experience , including 2+ years in a leadership role.
  • Expertise in automated testing frameworks and manual exploratory testing.
  • Experience with agile methodologies, CI / CD, and modern QA metrics.
  • Strong communicator with ability to work in embedded, customer-facing roles.
  • A background in mentoring or leading QA teams is highly preferred.
  • Experience in elections is highly preferred.
  • Must be able to be onsite in Baton Rouge, LA five days a week.

  • Why This Matters

    Organizations are increasingly recognizing the importance of agile QA practices-especially shift-left testing , early QA involvement, continuous integration of automated tests, and metrics-driven QA-to ensure high-quality, rapid delivery of software in regulated, mission-critical environments. This role embodies those best practices, uniquely positioned to drive quality in operational infrastructure, backed by real-time customer interaction and delivery accountability.
