Project Focus: Quality Assurance for APEX, Data Integration, and GenAI Enabled Features
Job Description
Experience Level: 0–2 years
Role Summary:
The Junior Test Engineer supports the quality assurance efforts for the Oracle APEX modernization program, including the replatforming of a legacy .NET application and the development of new APEX and GenAI‐enabled features. This role assists with writing and executing test cases, validating application behaviors, verifying data accuracy, and tracking defects. The Junior Test Engineer works under the guidance of more experienced Test Engineers and collaborates with developers, business analysts, data integration specialists, GenAI engineers, and DevOps teams to ensure reliable and high‐quality releases. This is an early‐career QA role focused on hands‐on testing, learning QA processes, and contributing to testing activities within Agile sprints.
Key Responsibilities:
Test Case Execution & Support
• Execute manual test cases across APEX pages, workflows, backend processes, and APIs.
• Validate UI elements, navigation flows, error messages, and basic data logic.
• Assist with testing REST APIs and verifying responses under guidance.
• Support the creation, organization, and maintenance of test data sets.
• Record test execution results in Zephyr inside JIRA.
Defect Logging & Retesting
• Document defects in JIRA with clear steps, expected behavior, and supporting screenshots.
• Re-test resolved defects and validate fixes across different environments.
• Collaborate with developers and analysts to clarify issues and expected outcomes.
Test Documentation & Preparation
• Help create and update test cases based on user stories, acceptance criteria, and design changes.
• Participate in test preparation activities by identifying test scenarios and data needs.
• Maintain all test artifacts using JIRA + Zephyr as the team’s test management and tracking tools.
Collaboration & Delivery
• Participate in Agile ceremonies including daily stand‐ups, sprint planning, and retrospectives.
• Communicate progress, blockers, and observations to the QA Lead or senior Test Engineers.
• Coordinate with DevOps on environment readiness, deployments, and test window scheduling.
Required Qualifications:
• 0–2 years of experience in software testing, QA, or related IT fields (coursework, internships, or project experience welcome).
• Basic understanding of software testing concepts (test cases, defect tracking, regression testing).
• Familiarity with web applications, UI testing, and browser developer tools.
• Basic SQL skills for data validation or a willingness to learn.
• Experience using JIRA for user stories and defect tracking, and Zephyr for test case execution (or willingness to learn quickly).
• Ability to follow structured testing instructions and document results clearly.
• Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and time management ability.
• Willingness to learn APEX, Oracle Database, and Agile QA practices.
Preferred Qualifications:
• Exposure to testing Oracle APEX or similar low‐code/web applications.
• Familiarity with REST APIs and basic API testing tools such as Postman.
• Experience using test management tools (JIRA + Zephyr, TestRail, Azure DevOps Test Plans).
• Basic exposure to automation tools (Selenium, Playwright, Cypress, etc.).
• Experience validating data or understanding ETL/ELT workflows.
• Coursework, certification, or training in QA, software testing, or related fields.
