  • Lead Section 508 and WCAG accessibility compliance testing, including validation of assistive technology compatibility, keyboard navigation, and accessibility standards.
  • Validate application functionality, data integrity, authentication, authorization, session management, audit capabilities, and performance against approved requirements.
  • Manage defects through reproduction, severity assessment, triage, retesting, regression verification, and closure; track and report defect status, quality trends, and remediation progress.
  • Coordinate user acceptance testing and collaborate with developers, database administrators, cybersecurity personnel, business analysts, accessibility specialists, and stakeholders to resolve issues and support successful delivery.
  • Report testing progress, quality metrics, coverage, risks, unresolved defects, and release readiness; provide recommendations regarding residual risk and production deployment decisions.
  • Mentor test engineers, promote quality assurance best practices, maintain testing documentation, and drive continuous process improvement.
  • Perform other duties as assigned.
