Description:

Hands-on, ambitious senior QA engineer will be working with other experienced QA engineers to design, create, document, implement and maintain test scripts and the test framework. You should be self directed, team and process oriented. This position requires lots of initiative and willingness to work long hours and also to remain flexible in a very dynamic environment.
