Sqa Analyst Networks Job In Waterloo

Job Description

It all started on a bus. An election campaign bus.

Through his experience providing mobile connectivity for election campaigns, Dejero founder Bogdan Frusina witnessed first-hand the challenges that journalists faced reporting live from the field. He knew there was a better way.

Building a team with a passion for innovation and a drive to persevere, he set about developing and commercializing a portable and wireless live video broadcast solution. In November 2009, that vision came to life. Dejero enabled the world’s first live transmission of the torch relay across Canada for the Vancouver Winter Olympics.

Since then, we’ve evolved into a world-leading wireless telecommunications aggregator, providing resilient, uninterrupted internet connectivity vital for critical communications. Broadcasters, production companies, first responders, defense departments, and government agencies put their trust in Dejero.

Here’s how you help us continue our story...

We are looking for a SQA Analyst, Networks, to join our team. We are looking for a brilliant tester to expand our automation test suite. We're looking for someone who gets pumped about devising tests and finding problems and likes having a clear, “big picture” context on one hand and digging into details on the other.

As a key member of our SQA team, you will:

• Plan and execute testing for key network-based software projects including designing, documenting, executing and modifying test plans, scripts and procedures
• Find bugs in the software, investigating problems, finding their root cause, and clearly documenting findings into the defect/issue tracking system (JIRA)
• Communicate clearly and concisely with all teams with whom you interact
• Execute, modify and report on test plans
• Create SQA documentation, including but not limited to testing strategy, test summary, and the traceability matrix
• Work independently as a key member of a small, energetic test team

Here’s why you should join the Dejero team:

• If you aren’t growing, we aren’t growing. You will have the opportunity to develop your own career path with support from your manager and the People + Culture team.
• If the pandemic has taught us anything, it’s that work-life balance is extremely important. As we find our new normal, our employees are able to choose their preferred work environment; home, office or hybrid.
• We are home to an award-winning culture, products, and teams. Last year, Great Place to Work ranked us 6th Best Place to Work in Canada! We have also won two Emmys for our Smart Blending Technology.
• Giving back is a key pillar of our culture. Last year, Dejero and its employees contributed thousands of dollars to 12 local and international charities. In addition, through Dejero’s Day of Doing Great Things and employees’ annual paid volunteer day, we encourage our team to go out into the community and volunteer for local organizations.
• You have a say in the projects you get to work on based on your passions and interests. Our team attacks technical challenges together and all code is peer reviewed to leverage the strengths that each team member brings to the table.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering or a related technical degree
• 3-5 years of experience with networking and software quality, via development or testing
• Deep understanding of Linux system setup, networking technologies and communication protocols (TCP, UDP, HTTP, WebSockets)
• Ability to build a Linux system from scratch
• Hands-on experience with routing, VPNs, and network monitoring tools, as well as with networking hardware setup
• Software test experience with scripting or test automation implementation, SQL queries, log file parsing
