QA Analyst​/Test Automation Engineer Anticipated

PS Consulters is building a dedicated quality assurance practice to serve testing-as-a-service engagements with public sector clients in Western Canada. These clients run substantial application portfolios: public-facing services, insurance and claims platforms, and large enterprise SaaS estates, and they procure testing capacity as a managed, on-demand service rather than one project at a time. That model rewards testers who can land in an unfamiliar system, understand it quickly, and produce work that stands up to audit.

The roster spans the full testing lifecycle: functional and regression testing, automation development, API and integration testing, and coordination of user acceptance testing with business stakeholders. Assignments range from short, intense release windows to multi-month project engagements. The successful candidates will work within established client test-management frameworks while bringing their own discipline in evidence, traceability, and clear defect writing.

The role is contracted through PS Consulters with assignments matched to client demand. Compensation is hourly at competitive market rates; applicants are asked to state rate expectations. Work is delivered in English. Equipment and access are typically client-provisioned; secure handling of client data is a condition of every assignment.

This is an anticipated contract role tied to an active public sector procurement. Start dates depend on award and onboarding timelines. Qualified applicants are contacted as soon as the engagement is confirmed, and strong profiles are kept on file and matched against similar upcoming roles with consent.

Applications are reviewed by a practitioner, not a keyword filter; short, specific cover notes describing directly relevant work are read and valued.

PS Consulters welcomes applications from all qualified candidates, including members of visible minority communities, Indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities, and newcomers to Canada with eligible work status. Accommodation during the recruitment process is available on request.
