Original job description

We are seeking an experienced Senior Systems Testing/QA Specialist to lead and execute comprehensive manual and automated quality assurance strategies across enterprise application environments. In this role, you will be responsible for defining master test strategies, authoring detailed test plans and test cases, building reusable automation test suites, and validating complex multi-tier architectures across both GUI and non-GUI layers. Leveraging hands-on expertise with modern automation frameworks (Selenium, Appium, Playwright), API validation tools (Postman, SoapUI, RestAssured), and SQL query development, you will conduct functional, integration, regression, accessibility, and performance testing, collaborate with cross-functional Agile teams, and drive defect triage to ensure robust, high-quality production releases.

Location: Toronto, ON (Fully Onsite – 5 days/week required)

Duration: 5-month contract.

Advantages
Dual Automation & Manual Scope: Direct ownership across UI test automation, API validation, and end-to-end functional testing.

Modern Framework Ecosystem: Hands-on automation leveraging industry-standard tools like Selenium, Playwright, Appium, and Postman.

Full-Stack Validation: Complete coverage spanning front-end user interfaces, web services, microservices, and backend relational databases.

Collaborative Onsite Environment: Partner closely with developers, business analysts, and product owners in a dedicated Toronto office.

Responsibilities
Collaborate with product managers, product owners, architects, and engineering teams to establish testing strategies, master test plans, and scope estimates across the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).

Plan, organize, and execute end-to-end testing efforts for large-scale systems in Graphical User Interface (GUI) and non-GUI environments, covering functional, integration, regression, system, and user acceptance testing (UAT).

Design, build, and maintain robust, reusable automated test scripts for functional, regression, and integration testing using modern frameworks such as Selenium, Appium, or Playwright.

Conduct extensive RESTful and SOAP API testing using tools like Postman, SoapUI, or RestAssured, validating request/response payloads, schemas, status codes, authentication, authorization, and error handling.

Write and execute complex SQL queries against relational databases to perform backend data validation, data-driven testing, and data integrity checks.

Plan and generate test data required across various phases and testing environments.

Perform specialized testing including accessibility audits (AODA/WCAG using Axe, WAVE), load/performance testing, and interface integration validations.

Create and maintain comprehensive Requirements Traceability Matrices (RTM) linking business requirements to test cases, test results, and defect logs.

Log, track, and triage defects in defect management tools (such as Jira), facilitating regular defect review meetings with analysts and technical leads.

Participate actively in Agile ceremonies including daily stand-ups, sprint planning, requirement walkthroughs, and sprint demos.

Support business stakeholders through UAT execution and conduct post-implementation and post-release testing.

Facilitate knowledge transfer sessions and document technical QA artifacts, automation frameworks, and test evidence for ongoing sustainment.

Qualifications
Testing Seniority & Strategy: 10+ years of dedicated experience planning, organizing, and implementing enterprise-scale testing efforts across the full Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) within Agile and DevOps environments (Strictly Required).

API Testing Expertise: Strong, proven experience with API testing tools (Postman, SoapUI, RestAssured) validating RESTful and SOAP web services, including payload schemas, authentication/authorization, and edge-case error scenarios (Strictly Required).

Automation Frameworks: Hands-on experience developing clean, reusable, and maintainable automated test scripts using frameworks such as Selenium, Appium, Playwright, or equivalent (Strictly Required).

Database Querying & SQL: Demonstrated ability to write and execute SQL queries for backend database verification, data integrity validation, and data-driven testing (Strictly Required).

GUI & Non-GUI Systems Testing: Proven track record planning and organizing testing across both GUI and non-GUI environments, including systems integration, non-functional, and user acceptance testing (Strictly Required).

Collaboration & Defect Management: Excellent communication and analytical skills, with strong experience managing defects, facilitating triage sessions, and presenting testing outcomes to multidisciplinary teams (Strictly Required).

Nice-to-Have Assets:
Prior testing or quality assurance experience within a public sector or large enterprise environment.

Hands-on experience using accessibility audit and compliance tools such as Axe or WAVE (AODA/WCAG).

Proficiency in programming languages commonly used in test automation (Java, JavaScript, Python, or C#) and test runners (TestNG, JUnit, PyTest).

Exposure to performance testing tools such as JMeter or LoadRunner.
