The Tax Compliance Integrity Analyst plays a foundational role in ensuring compliance changes are validated accurately and completely before being released, focusing on test planning, execution, and defect management.
Responsibilities
- Thoroughly review requirements documents and acceptance criteria for routine and straightforward compliance changes from upstream Compliance teams prior to developing test plans, ensuring a complete understanding of what is being tested and why
- Develop comprehensive test scenarios and test cases derived from the acceptance criteria, covering positive cases (expected behavior), negative cases (invalid inputs, error conditions), boundary conditions, and jurisdiction-specific edge cases for assigned compliance changes
- Identify scenarios that may not be explicitly addressed in the acceptance criteria but represent realistic compliance risks, and raise these with upstream Compliance teams for consideration before testing begins
- Maintain organized test documentation for all assigned compliance changes according to team protocols, including test plans, test cases, test data, and expected results, as well as a library of test scenarios organized by jurisdiction and change type to support testing efficiency and consistent coverage of previously validated functionality
- Execute test scenarios against implemented changes in the designated test environment, validating that each acceptance criterion is met and that outputs — including tax calculations, report data, payment details, and form layouts — are accurate and compliant
- Document test results clearly in an approved format, recording pass/fail status for assigned test cases along with sufficient detail for upstream Compliance teams or the Development team to investigate and reproduce any failures
- Provide a formal go/no-go testing certification for assigned compliance changes, confirming that all acceptance criteria have been tested and all defects have been resolved prior to submission to the independent QA team for production sign-off
- Classify defects by type, track through to resolution, and retest corrected implementations to confirm defects are fully resolved before submission to the independent QA team
- Collaborate with other Compliance teams and the Development Team when defects are identified, providing clear reproduction steps and expected vs. actual results, and routing to the appropriate team based on root cause
- Participate in requirements review sessions with upstream Compliance teams and the Development Team prior to implementation, reviewing acceptance criteria for testability and completeness, and raising gaps before work begins
- Escalate unresolved defects, testing blockers, or go/no-go concerns to a senior member of the team in accordance with team protocols
- Contribute to team testing standards, test documentation templates, and quality improvement initiatives
- Support continuous improvement efforts related to testing strategy, documentation practices, and workflow efficiency
