10 Automated QA Job Leads
We’re back around to the automated testing skills specialty of Quality Assurance. Once again, let’s start with CareerBuilder.

1. QA/Automated Software Test Engineer Robert Half Technologies has a position in Tucson, AZ that pays $50000 to $70000 per year; experience with various automated testing tools packages, including Silk, is a plus.
2. QA Analyst/Automated Tester Premier Farnell has this full time position in Chicago, IL for someone with scripting experience in C, Java, & Visual Basic, as well as with various automated test tools packages.
3. Software QA Automation Developer This full time position in Stamford, CT may be as much a development position as it is an automated QA position.
4. QA Test Automation Engineer Ajilon Consulting has a listing for a full time job in Cincinnati, OH that requires 2+ years experience with Quality Center and QTP.
5. Quality Assurance Analyst- Automated Also requiring 2+ years experience with the HP/Mercury toolset, this full time position is listed through OpenLink and is in Uniondale, NY.
6. QA Analyst Automated testing may not be the primary focus of this position, but it is with Rosetta Stone; it is a full time position in Harrisonburg, VA that only requires 1 to 2 years experience.
7. Automated Software Tester Also with Ajilon Consulting, this full time position in Rochester, NY is also not automation toolset specific, but is more toward developing automation using VB scripting and Visual Studio.
8. Senior Test Engineer CyberCoders has a consulting gig whose pay range is $50,000 – $110,000/year for this Senior Test Engineer with Active TS/SCI and with Full Scope Polygraph clearances.

10. QA Engineer MEDPLUS/Quest Diagnostics has a full time position in Mason, OH for the QA Engineer with 2+ years experience with WinRunner.

Demand for Test Engineers with experience using any of the HP/Mercury automated test toolsets remains strong. If you have been in QA for a while and are trying to transistion to doing automated testing, there are a couple of things to consider. First, you will need to have some taste for acquiring programming skills. Second, certification for both the functional automated test tools (WinRunner and QTP) and the performance and load test toolset (LoadRunner and related products) is available. You can pursue certification directly from HP/Mercury or from their local partners, like Orasi in Atlanta. Until tomorrow, good luck and happy hunting.
