Strategic Advisory & Full-Cycle Product Engineering

From Architecture to Execution.
Custom Development & Strategic Consulting.

Incisive Minds LLC pairs senior enterprise architecture with high-velocity engineering teams. Whether you need isolated strategic consultation, custom feature development, or full-scale engineering outsourcing—we build to scale.

Decades of Software Engineering Leadership Meets Next-Gen Intelligence

At Incisive Minds LLC, we believe modern systems demand more than static code bases. True digital scale requires the integration of reactive microservices with modern Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and continuous delivery capabilities.

We partner directly with CTOs, VPs of Engineering, and business leaders to conceptualize resilient system designs, audit infrastructure, establish secure MLOps pipelines, and build robust proof of concepts (POCs) that transform raw data into enterprise value.

Sr. Automation Tester - Bloomington, IL

Open

Job Description: We are seeking an experienced SDET to architect, build, and maintain sophisticated automation frameworks leveraging Python and the Robot Framework. Your primary focus will be developing and executing comprehensive automated test scripts for cross-browser web applications, while implementing best practices such as Page Object Model (POM), data-driven, and hybrid framework architectures.

You will utilize JMeter to drive performance testing initiatives, conduct automation feasibility analyses to identify high-value automation candidates, and integrate test suites into robust CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, Git). The role includes executing API automation alongside UI-driven validations, performing root cause analysis on failures, and reporting defects with clarity.

You will engage directly with developers, QA, DevOps, and product stakeholders within Agile ceremonies. We expect active participation in code reviews to maintain high automation code standards, as well as a commitment to mentoring junior engineers and advancing our internal processes.

Primary Skills: Expert-level proficiency with Robot Framework (custom keywords and library management) and Python; deep hands-on experience in API testing (JMeter) and database validation; proven success in deploying Hybrid, Data-Driven, and Page Object Model frameworks.

Note: We are unable to provide visa sponsorship for this position.

Java SDET (Selenium) - Bloomington, IL (Hybrid)

Open

Job Description: We are looking for an SDET to design, develop, and execute automated test scripts utilizing Selenium WebDriver and Java. You will be responsible for creating and maintaining highly scalable automation frameworks (Page Object Model, Data-Driven, and Hybrid) to handle regression, smoke, sanity, and functional testing for our core web platforms.

You will work in tandem with Business Analysts and Developers to translate functional requirements into precise test cases. This role requires technical rigor in defect identification, logging, and retesting through JIRA/ALM. You will also manage the integration of automation execution into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, Git, Maven, and TestNG/JUnit, while ensuring backend integrity through REST service testing and SQL validation.

As a key member of our Agile teams, you will participate in daily standups, sprint planning, and retrospectives. You will be accountable for analyzing execution results, generating detailed quality reports, and continuously enhancing our test coverage, script reusability, and overall execution efficiency.

Primary Skills: Advanced Selenium WebDriver and Java development; professional proficiency in JIRA/ALM; deep experience with CI/CD ecosystem tools (Jenkins, Maven, TestNG); and practical backend/SQL querying capabilities.

Note: We are unable to provide visa sponsorship for this position.

iSeries Developer - Remote

Open

Key Responsibilities: We are seeking a developer with 5–8 years of experience in IBM i/AS400 environments. You will be responsible for end-to-end development using COBOL400, COBOL ILE, SQL400, and Query400. You must possess a strong working knowledge of DB2400, ILE concepts, Display Files, Sub-Files, Printer Files, and Embedded SQL. Essential capabilities include managing iSeries APIs, data queues, user queues, multithreading, journaling, and IBM iSeries file systems.

You will lead requirement analysis, provide accurate task estimations, and monitor project timelines. You will partner with business teams to prioritize feature development, prepare comprehensive design documentation, and ensure rigorous reporting and tracking of all assignments. You will also serve as a key point of contact for resolving critical production support issues.

Required Skills & Experience: Deep technical expertise in the iSeries stack (AS400, ILE COBOL, ILE CL, DB2, COBOL400, SQL400, Query400). Previous experience in production support environments is highly valued, and familiarity with MQ Series and Aldon is considered a significant advantage.
