CAI is hiring! We are looking for a QA/Disaster Recovery Test Engineer for a full-time, fully remote opportunity. This role owns test execution for a program-monitoring hosting environment, with a focus on validating that disaster-recovery failover meets defined recovery objectives and that data remains intact through migration and failover events. This position works closely with the Technical Development Lead and DevOps/SRE team and will have concentrated involvement during initial build/transition and recurring semi-annual test cycles at steady state.
Only candidates without a need for sponsorship now or in the future will be considered.
What You'll Do
- Execute test plans validating disaster-recovery failover across two GovCloud regions against defined recovery-point and recovery-time objectives
- Lead recurring DR test cycles, documenting results and tracking remediation items to closure
- Validate data integrity after failover or migration events - row counts, checksums, referential integrity, and dashboard output comparison against the source environment
- Support cutover rehearsals during transition, including rollback-procedure validation
- Partner with the Technical Development Lead and DevOps/SRE team on test environment setup
What You'll Need
Required:
- 3+ years of QA or test engineering experience in cloud environments
- Hands-on AWS GovCloud (US) experience - not commercial AWS alone
- Experience validating disaster-recovery failover against defined RPO/RTO targets
- Must be a U.S. citizen - this role has hands-on-keyboard access to the GovCloud environment
Preferred:
- Experience with data validation and reconciliation at scale (checksums, referential integrity checks)
- Experience in HIPAA-regulated or PHI-scale environments
- AWS certification
Physical Demands
- Ability to safely and successfully perform the essential job functions consistent with the ADA and other federal, state, and local standards
- Sedentary work that involves sitting or remaining stationary most of the time, with occasional need to move around the office to attend meetings, etc.
- Ability to conduct repetitive tasks on a computer, utilizing a mouse, keyboard, and monitor
