QUALITY ASSURANCE ANALYST
POSITION SUMMARY
Benelynk is building the technology platform that powers Veteran Directed Care (VDC), a VA program that gives veterans the flexibility to direct their own long-term in-home care, including hiring and managing their own caregivers. We are seeking to hire a Quality Assurance (QA) Analyst to support a new product being added to our portfolio.
The Quality Assurance Analyst is responsible for monitoring, inspecting, testing, and proposing measures to correct or improve the organization’s products so that they meet established quality, functional, and compliance standards. In practical terms, this role designs and executes the test strategies, test plans, test suites, test cases, and test scripts that validate product functionality End-to-End — identifying, logging, and reproducing defects before they reach the user, and confirming that what was built matches what was asked for.
This position supports the technology platform BeneLynk is building to power Veteran Directed Care (VDC), a VA program that gives veterans the flexibility to direct their own long-term in-home care, including hiring and managing their own caregivers.
BeneLynk’s Engagement Advocates use an internal, proprietary platform (i.e., Veteran Choose) to guide veterans through the full lifecycle — onboarding, caregiver engagement, time submission and approval, payroll, and reporting. The platform also includes a self-service module that allows the Veteran, Case Manager, and Direct Care Worker to access the system directly to perform the functions they require and to retrieve their unique actions and reports.
Because this platform serves several very different audiences within a single connected system — veterans (many of whom are elderly or non-technical), family caregivers, professional Direct Care Workers, Enrollment Advocates, and partner agencies (ADNAs) — the QA Analyst must validate distinct role-based experiences, permissions, and workflows rather than a single user path. The role also carries a high-consequence testing burden: errors in eligibility, service authorizations, budgets, timesheets, or payroll affect a veteran’s care and a caregiver’s paycheck. Accuracy is not a preference here; it is the product.
The QA Analyst will work in conjunction with the Chief Product Officer, the Product Owner, the UI/UX Product Designer, Operations, and the Engineering (ENG) team to design, develop, test, validate, deploy, monitor, and manage the solutions being released. In addition, this individual will assist in capturing business needs and business requirements from stakeholders and in defining corresponding project and product directives relative to Product Development (PD) initiatives.
At BeneLynk we know that innovation does not come without rolling up our sleeves and getting the work done. The QA Analyst will be an integral piece in defining and executing testing strategies that ensure BeneLynk continues to deliver high-quality products and services to its customers.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Represent BeneLynk’s Customers: This function is listed first, because we always want to be thinking of how best to serve our internal and external customers. The first responsibility of the QA Analyst is to understand the business needs and goals of BeneLynk’s clients — and the lived experience of veterans, caregivers, and Direct Care Workers — along with the functionality of the products and services designed to address them.
Ensure Product Quality: The QA Analyst is responsible for designing and executing End-to-End validation and User Acceptance Testing (UAT) of product functionality across both the Advocate-facing platform and the self-service module. This individual is vital to the assurance and attestation that BeneLynk products are absent of issues and recurrently adhere to the Voice of the Customer (VOC).
Validate Program and Payroll Integrity: The QA Analyst will validate the complex program logic that sits underneath the interface — eligibility, service authorizations, budget calculations, timesheet capture and approval, payroll processing, and reporting — including boundary conditions, rounding, retroactive corrections, and error-state handling.
Team Collaboration: This role is responsible for fostering an effective and collaborative team structure, working with colleagues across technical, business, and operational departments. This cohort will be part of a team structured to understand, design, and execute QA and UAT plans based on the business goals, needs, and requirements captured from these teammates.
This role may have multiple responsibilities, reflecting the small, but growing, size of BeneLynk as a company. All of us, including our senior management team, are on the front line performing what needs to be accomplished to establish BeneLynk as the nation’s premier provider of benefit and SDoH advocacy services.
ADDITIONAL DUTIES/RESPONSIBILITIES:

Develop test strategies, test plans, test suites, test cases, and test scripts — providing a high level of testing and analysis coverage across existing functionality and new features.

Validate the VDC service lifecycle End-to-End: onboarding, caregiver engagement, time submission and approval, payroll, and reporting.
Identify appropriate parameters, functions, and data to test and validate product attributes; parameters may include general function, validity of results, accuracy, reliability, and compliance with industry standards.
Test the self-service module against real-world usage conditions — including mobile devices, low-bandwidth connections, and assistive technology — recognizing that many end users are elderly, non-technical, or non-native English speakers.
Support accessibility validation against WCAG 2.1 AA as a baseline requirement, escalating findings to design and engineering.

Identify, log, and recreate error codes, bugs, and defects; report findings to the Product Management Office (PMO) and/or Engineering (ENG) when applicable or required.
Respond quickly to QA/UAT and/or Production (PRD) issues, research and identify ways to reproduce defects, update tickets, and monitor the status of project/product initiatives accordingly.
Devise best practices, processes, and procedures to stringently inspect and report detailed quality issues for prompt correction.
Facilitate proactive solutions by collecting, analyzing, and communicating quality data.
Collaboration and Delivery
Collaborate with stakeholders including Product Management, Design, Engineering, Operations, and Leadership to understand the journey of our Advocates and the veterans and caregivers they assist.
Work on multiple initiatives to prioritize features, devise program testing and analysis requirements, create corresponding documentation and process flows, and define on-time delivery of End-to-End testing.
Perform other duties as assigned by the Chief Product Officer and/or BeneLynk leadership personnel regarding QA/UAT and/or business-related objectives.
REQUIRED SKILLS/ABILITIES/EXPERIENCE:
2–4+ years in Quality Assurance (QA) and/or User Acceptance Testing (UAT), including experience leading product testing and analysis efforts across multiple QA and/or UAT initiatives.

Calm under pressure, with a proactive and self-starting attitude and excellent interpersonal skills.
