• Experience designing risk-based test plans, test cases, traceability, defect workflows, release evidence, and post-production validation.
• Experience testing REST/SOAP or IntegrationHub integrations, workflows/flows, security/ACL behavior, catalog capabilities, and cross-system transactions.
• Working knowledge of ServiceNow release/change processes and the ability to evaluate readiness independently from the engineer who built the change.
• U.S. citizenship and ability to satisfy High Risk IT background-investigation and sensitive-information requirements.

Responsibilities

• Elicit, analyze, document, and validate business needs, process flows, data requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria for ServiceNow enhancements, operational improvements, integrations, and data changes.
• Maintain themes, epics, features, stories, dependencies, backlog, sprint/release artifacts, and planning data in ServiceNow SPM/Agile capabilities or the Agency-approved work-management structure.
• Support prioritization using Agency-assigned business value, time criticality, risk reduction, dependencies, and effort/capacity; make tradeoffs visible rather than independently deciding Government priorities.

• Validate upgrade and patch readiness through regression packs, pre/post comparisons, and targeted testing of platform-level integrations and critical shared capabilities.
• Perform post-production validation and rollback verification; ensure a change is not declared successful until agreed technical and user outcomes are demonstrated.
• Measure automation coverage, regression effectiveness, escaped defects, test-cycle time, and repeat-failure trends; recommend improvements that increase confidence and reduce manual effort.
