ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS/RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Execute functional, integration, regression, performance, interoperability, and validation and verification testing for sensing capabilities in lab, pre-production, and operational representative environments.
- Support integration and testing of sensing capabilities on DoD unclassified and classified networks and in cloud hosting environments, including transition of capabilities such as IDS into cloud-based platforms.
- Validate that sensing capabilities meet documented requirements, system designs, and Key Performance Parameters, and that interoperability across OSP, FPCAP, ASV, IDS, and external tools such as SIEM platforms is maintained.
- Develop and maintain automated regression test suites where feasible to support routine verification of previously released functionality.
- Collect, analyze, and report performance and availability metrics from test events to establish baselines and identify issues related to throughput, latency, stability, and scalability.
- Document test results, defects, and anomalies; assign severity and recommended priority; and track issues through resolution in coordination with engineering and operations teams.
- Participate in integration and interoperability testing to confirm interfaces, data flows, and sensor outputs align with system and data standards, including logging and data brokering requirements.
- Support continuous monitoring activities by validating implementation of patches, updates, and configuration changes in test environments prior to deployment to production.
- Assist with development and maintenance of lab environments used for sensing capability testing, including installation, configuration, and troubleshooting of hardware, virtual machines, operating systems, and applications.
- Prepare test related artifacts and briefing materials to support technical reviews, design reviews, and test readiness reviews as required by the program.
