Employment Details
Employment Term: Full-Time (Fixed)
Work Schedule: 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM US Time (Los Angeles)
Weekends: Saturday & Sunday
Work Setup: Remote (BYOD)
Role Overview
Manually test productivity desktop apps built on .NET for MacOS. You'll work closely with our product and
engineering teams to ensure our agentic AI desktop product works flawlessly on MacOS.
Required Skills
• 3+ years manual functional testing of desktop applications
• Access to MacOS machines. We need verification on both Intel and Apple Silicon (ARM) Macs to catch native code paths, library/runtime variants, and performance differences.
• Hands-on testing experience on MacOS
• Test plan authoring: derive new test cases from product specs, UI walkthroughs, or hands-on exploration; produce structured CSV/spreadsheet formats with clear test descriptions, steps, expected outcomes, and pass/fail criteria
• Refine AI-drafted test plans: we bootstrap test plans using AI, but they require substantial human rework— removing redundancies, adding edge cases, sharpening expected outcomes, and restructuring cases. You'll lead this refinement.
• Clear bug write-ups: precise reproduction steps, severity classification, screenshots, and log capture
• Comfort with complex UI patterns: multi-window interfaces, drag-and-drop, modal dialogs, menu bar behavior, and installer flows
• Platform-specific knowledge: MacOS .app bundles, Info.plist file associations, native title-bar behavior
• MS365 / Outlook familiarity—we integrate with both Outlook Classic and modern Outlook
• Strong written English; proficiency with Microsoft Teams and GitLab for collaboration and issue tracking
Nice to Have
• Microsoft Entra / OAuth sign-in flow testing
• AI / LLM chat product testing
• Installer validation (.app / .dmg on MacOS)
What We Provide
• Test accounts, sample data, and direct access to the dev team for clarifications
• A small, product-driven team where your work directly impacts the product
• Remote flexibility with a team based worldwide
