Job Description
Position : QA Analyst
Duration : 10 Months
Location : Minnesota (Remote)
Description of Engagement :
The Minnesota Department of Information Technology Services (MNIT), partnering with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry (DLI), is seeking a team of two (2) full-time staff augmentation resources from a single vendor to perform Developer duties and Quality Assurance Analyst duties for the Prevailing Wage system modernization project. The vendor team will consist of one (1) Developer resource and one (1) Quality Assurance Analyst resource.
Minnesota's Prevailing Wage law (Minnesota Statutes 177.41 through 177.44) requires employees working on state-funded construction and public works projects to be paid wage rates comparable to wages paid for similar work in the area where the project is located. DLI is responsible for administering the Prevailing Wage law.
As part of the agency wide modernization of all DLI technical systems, MNIT / DLI wishes to implement a state-of-the-art technology solution for Prevailing Wage. The solution would move the Prevailing Wage system off of aging technology and transform work with more streamlined business processes built into the new tool.
DLI currently utilizes custom-developed automated systems for the processing of prevailing wage survey collection. These systems are :
- Labor Standards application (Imaging system)
PowerBuilder programming language (client / server) (User Interface)
Online surveys and wage reports, batch processing
FTP client / server interactions (Linux server)
The technical drivers to support the new solution are :
Technology and Support : Minimize DLI / MNIT effort to maintain the application, database, native web user interfaces, and underlying infrastructure.
The Developer resource on the vendor's team will work to develop and modernize the Prevailing Wage system based on solution requirements supplied by the State. The Quality Assurance Analyst resource on the vendor's team will write and execute test cases and carry out an overall testing strategy that includes unit, integration, regression, performance, security, and accessibility testing for the system.
