Position: Test Engineer / UAT Support Lead (REMOTE) with Security Clearance
Koniag IT Systems, LLC, a Koniag Government Services company, is seeking a Test Engineer/UAT Support Lead with a Secret security clearance to support KITS and our government customer. The position is remote. We offer competitive compensation and an extraordinary benefits package including health, dental and vision insurance, 401K with company matching, flexible spending accounts, paid holidays, three weeks paid time off, and more.

Koniag IT Systems, a Koniag Government Services company, is seeking an experienced Test Engineer / UAT Support Lead to support a critical Government Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM) initiative. This role supports a large-scale Application and Systems Enablement effort issued under an ICAM Enterprise Master IDIQ Contract. The Test Engineer / UAT Support Lead will serve as the primary authority for test planning, test execution, and User Acceptance Testing (UAT) support across the ICAM enablement program ensuring that all integration solutions, platform configurations, and application onboarding activities are thoroughly validated for functionality, security, compliance, and operational readiness prior to production deployment-in direct support of the Department of Defense (DoD) Zero Trust Execution Roadmap.

The ideal candidate is a technically skilled and process-driven test engineering professional with a strong background in enterprise software testing, identity and access management platform validation, and structured UAT management in a federal IT environment. This individual must be equally comfortable developing comprehensive test strategies, executing hands-on technical testing, and guiding non-technical Application Owners through the UAT process, ensuring that every enabled application meets program quality and compliance standards before being declared successfully onboarded.

This position requires an active Secret clearance and may require occasional travel to Government facilities. Primary work will be performed remotely. The Test Engineer / UAT Support Lead will serve as the testing authority for the ICAM Application and Systems Enablement program, responsible for developing and managing the comprehensive test program that validates all integration solutions and application onboarding activities from initial integration testing through final UAT verification.

This individual will work closely with the migration team lead, platform engineers, middleware engineers, the security and release lead, and Application Owners to ensure that testing activities are well-planned, consistently executed, thoroughly documented, and aligned with program security and Zero Trust compliance requirements. The Test Engineer / UAT Support Lead is expected to deliver a rigorous, repeatable, and scalable testing capability that supports the high-volume onboarding of approximately 600 applications across the program period of performance.

Principal responsibilities will include but are not limited to:
* Develop, implement, and maintain the program Master Test Plan, establishing the comprehensive strategy, methodology, scope, and schedule for all test and evaluation activities across the enablement program, including integration testing, system testing, regression testing, security testing, and UAT.
* Design and maintain an overarching UAT test plan that captures all potential test parameters, test scenarios, and acceptance criteria necessary for a successful UAT by Application Owners, incorporating Zero Trust relevant requirements and ICAM platform validation criteria into all test planning artifacts.
* Develop application-specific test plans, test cases, and test procedures tailored to each application's unique integration configuration, protocol implementation, and access control design, providing Application Owners with clear and actionable guidance for executing their own UAT activities.
* Lead and manage the execution of integration testing and system testing activities for all enablement solutions prior to delivery to Application Owners, validating that Okta IdP and SailPoint IGA connections are correctly configured, functional, and secure before UAT is initiated.
* Provide dedicated test support to Application Owners throughout their UAT activities, including facilitating UAT planning sessions, providing sample code for common integration patterns and reusable test libraries, troubleshooting integration defects identified during testing, and assisting with defect resolution activities.
* Prepare comprehensive Software Test Reports documenting observations, findings, defect logs, resolution status, and overall pass/fail determinations for each UAT event conducted with Application Owners, ensuring all test reports meet CDRL quality and timeliness requirements.
* Manage the deficiency reporting lifecycle across the program, ensuring all deficiencies identified during testing are documented, tracked, analyzed, and resolved in accordance with applicable technical orders,…
