The Role

We're seeking a QA Engineer who brings both creative problem-solving and rock-solid testing fundamentals to our team. You'll be the detective who uncovers edge cases others miss, the strategist who designs comprehensive test plans, and the technician who builds elegant automation frameworks. This role blends manual exploratory testing with modern automation practices, and you'll have the opportunity to pioneer AI-assisted testing approaches as the field evolves.

  • Build Robust Test Automation – Design, develop, and maintain automated test suites for web (Next.js, Node.js) and mobile applications using modern frameworks
  • Master the Fundamentals – Create comprehensive test plans, write clear test cases, execute thorough manual testing when needed, and ensure proper test coverage across features
  • Own Quality End-to-End – Take ownership of the testing process, identify gaps, and proactively propose improvements to testing strategies and methodologies
  • Collaborate Cross-Functionally – Partner with developers, product managers, and stakeholders to define testing strategies, reproduce issues, and advocate for quality
  • Manage Testing Operations – Track defects in JIRA, maintain test documentation, use Git for version control, and contribute to continuous improvement of QA processes

Requirements

Required

  • 3+ years of QA engineering experience , preferably in a SaaS or technology company
  • Strong testing fundamentals – deep understanding of test methodologies, test case design, boundary testing, regression testing, and quality assurance principles
  • Creative bug-finding skills – demonstrated ability to think outside the box, anticipate user behavior, and discover non-obvious issues
  • Hands-on automation experience with web and mobile applications (experience with tools like Selenium, Appium, Cypress, Playwright, or similar)
  • Manual testing expertise – comfort with exploratory testing and knowing when manual testing is the right approach
  • Technical aptitude – ability to read code, understand technical architecture, and work effectively with development teams
  • Self-starter mindset – proactive, autonomous, and able to manage multiple projects simultaneously
  • Curiosity about AI tools – eagerness to explore and adopt AI-assisted testing frameworks as they emerge
  • Proficiency with JIRA for bug tracking and test case management

Preferred

  • BA/BS degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field
  • Experience with JavaScript/TypeScript for test automation
  • Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and integrating automated tests into development workflows
  • Familiarity with performance and load testing tools and methodologies
  • Experience with API testing and backend validation
  • Exposure to AI-powered testing tools or machine learning concepts in QA

Benefits
