• Identify, investigate, document, and track defects through resolution.
• Collaborate with software engineers to improve testability and identify quality risks early.
• Contribute to automated testing within CI/CD pipelines.
• Help improve testing practices, automation frameworks, and overall product quality.
• Share knowledge and provide guidance to less experienced QA team members.

What We’re Looking For

• 3+ years of experience in Software Quality Assurance or Software Testing.

• Experience with modern web test automation frameworks.
• Good programming or scripting skills, preferably JavaScript and/or TypeScript.
• Experience with functional, regression, integration, and API testing.

• Ability to work effectively within a cross-functional engineering team.
• Proactive approach to quality and continuous improvement.

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with performance testing.
• Experience working in an Agile development environment.
• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Software Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
