Company: Morson Canada

Workplace type: Hybrid

Description:

Morson Canada is hiring a Senior QA Software Tester for a leading naval defence technology company in Dartmouth, NS. Their sonar, radar, and underwater systems are used by allied navies around the world.

This is a hands-on role for a tester who enjoys both sides of the job: running manual test cases and helping bring automation into the mix. You’ll help modernize the test strategy across Linux-based virtualized systems, physical test sets, and Docker deployments, working closely with developers and systems engineers.

Eligibility

You must be eligible for Government of Canada Reliability Status and the Controlled Goods Program. NATO clearance is started after you’re hired.

What you’ll do

Review functional and design specs and turn them into clear test cases and test artifacts
Execute manual tests, analyze results, and collect test evidence
Log, track, and triage defects with the development team
Run regression testing as fixes come in
Spot good candidates for automation and help write basic automation scripts
Act as a test SME during documentation reviews

What you bring

6+ years in a complex engineering environment (aerospace, defence, simulation, or similar)
Comfortable on the Linux command line
Solid grounding in functional, regression, and integration testing
Experience with defect tracking tools like JIRA
Strong documentation habits and attention to detail
A degree in a related field, or equivalent experience

Nice to have

Python or Bash scripting
Git, CI/CD pipelines, Nexus, VS Code
IBM DOORS or other test management tools
Automation tools like Robot Framework, Selenium, or Playwright

What’s offered

$99,000 to $140,000 CAD + 5% annual bonus
4 weeks of vacation plus 12 paid stat holidays
Choice of a regular schedule or a nine-day fortnight (every second Friday off)
Company-paid health and dental from day one
Life insurance at 3x salary, plus AD&D, both company-paid
5% RRSP match, plus an optional TFSA
Relocation assistance for candidates moving to Nova Scotia

Interested? Apply or message me directly.
