The Role
OVERVIEW AND FUNCTION OF ROLE
R-Cubed is hiring a Senior QA Analyst to test a client’s move from Kronos Workforce Central to Kronos Workforce Pro. The build is done. Your job is to prove it works before go-live, from pay calculations and timekeeping to WIM integrations and custom reports.
This is a testing role. You won’t configure or develop, but if you’ve done Kronos functional work, you’ll find root causes faster and we’d like to hear about it.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Write test plans, scripts and cases from functional specs and the existing WFC configuration
- Run parallel pay testing. Compare WFC and Pro results for the same pay periods and track down every variance
- Test pay rules, work rules, accruals and scheduling in the upgraded system
- Test WIM integrations end to end, including inbound and outbound files with payroll and HR systems, error handling, and how failed records behave
- Validate custom reports and analytics against source data, using SQL to confirm the numbers
- Log defects with enough detail for developers to reproduce them, then retest fixes and run regression
- Support UAT by prepping test data, walking business users through scripts and documenting sign-off
- Report test status, defect trends and open risks to the project lead
Qualifications
- SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS
- 7+ years testing Kronos Workforce Central or Kronos Workforce Pro upgrades and/or implementations
- Hands-on QA work on at least one WFC to Kronos Workforce Pro upgrade or migration
- Experience testing WIM integrations, including reading interface specs and validating file output
- SQL you can use to query both databases and reconcile results
- Experience validating custom Kronos reports
Additional Requirements
- Working knowledge of a test management or defect tool like Jira, Azure DevOps or ALM
- Defect write-ups that don’t need a follow-up call to understand
- Kronos configuration or functional experience is a plus
Engagement Details
- Type: Contract
- Location: United States, West Coast preferred, remote
- Duration: 6 months
- Start: November 2026
