Job Description
Insight Global is hiring multiple Software Test Engineers, a Test Lead and a Software Test/QA Manager to support a defense contract in Westminster, CO. This mission is about building flexible, software driven aircraft sensing systems that let the government avoid being locked into a single hardware vendor, while enabling faster upgrades to radar and communications capabilities over time. This effort focuses on modernizing how aircraft sense and communicate in contested environments. Our client is delivering an open, software centric RF mission capability. Instead of locking radar and communications functions to custom hardware, the system allows advanced software “skills”—like radar or communications modes—to run on third party processing hardware and connect to existing antennas. This team is building the next generation of aircraft sensing and communication systems, but with a modern, software first approach. Instead of radar and RF capabilities being locked into proprietary hardware, we will deliver flexible software that can run on third party hardware and connect to existing antennas. The system has already completed flight testing and is positioned to deliver multiple advanced radar functionalities designed to operate in complex, high clutter environments. The program competes directly with traditional defense primes by offering a more flexible, upgradeable, and future ready architecture.
Core Responsibilities:
•Define test frameworks, standards, and best practices
•Design automation, performance, and non-functional test approaches
•Ensure testability is built into the system architecture
•Guide tooling selection and integration (e.g., CI/CD, test management)
•Design, develop, and maintain automated test suites
•Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines
•Ensure automation coverage aligns with risk and critical paths
•Maintain test data
•Execute test cases and exploratory testing
•Validate user workflows, integrations, and edge cases
•Log and validate defects with clear reproduction steps
•Support regression, smoke, and release readiness testing
•Participate in requirement reviews and backlog refinement
