Full Job Description
What we do matters. We are a high-growth, agile company creating safety and mission-critical solutions in a synergistic environment between our people and our client partners. From F-35 and F-16 fighter jets, to the latest aviation technologies, to working on medical devices, spacecraft, and satellites – our engineers have worked on some of the coolest Aerospace, Defense, Space, and Medical Device products in the world. Be part of a team that is powering engineering solutions that drive technology. Quest Defense Systems and Solutions is seeking highly skilled Software Verification & Validation Engineers to perform requirements-based unit tests for embedded software on a nuclear power plant control system. The NQA-1 safety standard governs the project, a quality assurance framework for nuclear facility applications. Testing should be performed with a safety and completeness mindset prescribed by DO-178. However, NQA-1 is less prescriptive, acting as a high-level quality framework, and less structured. Comprehensive testing is required (MCDC coverage). Due to the nature of the project, all applicants must be U. S. Citizens or US lawful permanent residents. This role is remote. Key Responsibilities: Developing controls/monitoring software, low-level requirements-based tests to generate full-coverage LDRA verification procedures. Analyzing and dispositioning structural coverage holes. Coordinating with the customer to ensure full test coverage, correct expected results, and communication/disposition of test findings. Executing the tests in the LDRA test setup on both simulated and on-target environments. Reviewing test results and test time history data during test development, regression runs, and to help debug software issues. Identifying findings and reporting them to the customer when test outcomes do not align with requirements or with expected results. Authoring and participating in formal reviews of test cases, procedures, and results. Required Qualifications: Ba
