Softeta is a software engineering partner for finance, energy, industrial, and other high-stakes sectors. We specialise in building and modernising backend-heavy, integration-critical systems where speed, accuracy, and reliability are non-negotiable.

Clients such as SEB, NordVPN, and CarVertical trust us with systems that serve millions of users globally.
Softeta is looking for a hands-on QA Engineer who thrives in backend-heavy environments and takes ownership of end-to-end quality. If you enjoy digging into APIs, databases, and complex system flows rather than clicking through UIs — this role is for you.
What you'll do
- Design and execute manual end-to-end test scenarios covering full system flows — from backend services and APIs through to data layer validation.
- Perform thorough backend and API testing using Postman, verifying request/response behavior, data integrity, error handling, and edge cases.
- Analyse business requirements and system specifications to build structured, reusable test cases and test suites.
- Log, prioritise, and track defects in JIRA, collaborating closely with developers to reproduce issues and verify fixes.
- Contribute to improving QA documentation and testing processes in Confluence.
Requirements
- 3+ years of manual QA experience with a clear focus on backend or system-level testing;
- Solid hands-on experience with API testing tools — Postman or Swagger knowledge is a must;
- Confident working with SQL — able to write queries to inspect and validate data in relational databases.
- Strong grasp of end-to-end testing principles and the ability to trace issues across system boundaries.
- Systematic approach to test case design, defect documentation, and root cause analysis.
- Comfortable working without a polished UI to guide you — you read specs, explore APIs, and build test coverage from the ground up.
Benefits
- Diverse and technically challenging projects;
- Training budget for professional and personal growth;
- Flexible working hours and a hybrid workplace model;
- Flexible schedule and Agile/SCRUM environment;
- Technical equipment that you can choose from;
- Salary range - from 3400 EUR to 4600 EUR monthly before taxes.
