- Own Manual regression testing for payroll and statutory calculation workflows across individual payroll applications.
- Execute detailed test cases focused on complex payroll calculations, tax rules, and compliance scenarios.
- Validate system behavior during release cycles (every ~ 3 weeks), testing code during the release process rather than debugging source code.
- Work within a mainframe-based environment using ADP internal tools (no cloud platforms, no external tooling)
- Document defects clearly and collaborate with developers, product partners, and business stakeholders to ensure accurate fixes.
- Lead testing efforts for your assigned features, including test planning, execution, and release readiness.

- Hands-on experience with defect tracking tools (Ex: JIRA)
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Experience using SQL to validate backend data, calculations, and test results in QA or testing environments
NICE TO HAVE:
- Experience with ChangeMan or other mainframe source control tools
- Programming languages for system understanding not development.
- Exposure to test automation (for limited use)
- Chat GPT / CoPilot or other GenAI exposure

- Be surrounded by curious learners. We align ourselves with other smart people in an environment where we grow and elevate one another to the next level. We encourage our associates to listen, stay agile, and learn from mistakes.
