  • Author and manage test plans and scenarios for complex systems, validating functional, regression, integration, performance, and API-level testing.
  • Troubleshoot and analyze test failures, logging detailed and reproducible bug reports, and contributing to root cause analysis.
  • Leverage test management and tracking tools such as Jira and Zephyr Scale to document, prioritize, and report testing efforts across teams.
  • Promote and advocate for test automation, quality engineering practices, and tooling improvements that enhance developer productivity and product reliability.
  • Participate in Agile ceremonies, including sprint planning, stand-ups, and retrospectives, while continuously optimizing QA strategies in a fast-paced startup environment.
  • Research and experiment with new testing tools and methodologies, introducing innovative solutions for quality assurance challenges.

  • Strong programming skills in languages such as TypeScript, JavaScript, Java, Python, or similar for test development with an emphasis on UI testing.
  • Demonstrated expertise with test automation frameworks (e.g., Selenium, WebdriverIO, Appium, Cypress, Playwright).
  • Experience with source control systems (e.g., Git), CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions), and cloud-based testing platforms.
  • Solid understanding of RESTful APIs and experience writing automated API tests using tools like Postman, REST Assured, or similar.
  • Proficient in cross-platform mobile testing and web testing across browsers and devices.
  • Familiarity with performance, load, or security testing tools is a plus.
