Summary Generated by Built In
We are seeking a Staff QA Engineer III to own quality across multiple teams at Versitech. This role is ideal for an experienced QA leader who can make teams more effective at building quality software by defining processes, establishing standards, and driving shift-left testing practices. You will reduce friction between QA, Product, and Engineering while identifying and fixing systemic quality issues at their root causes.
Company Overview
At VersiTech, we go beyond the traditional boundaries of a tech company to provide payment and point-of-sale technologies that help businesses increase their profitability, run efficiently, and grow with confidence. We are innovators at heart, problem-solvers in action, and growth partners in spirit. In every solution we create and every service we offer, our ethos is clear: technology should be advanced, accessible, and easy to use. We have a passion for delivering technology-focused products and services that are built on speed, affordability, and reliability so that every business we serve enjoys a consistent experience with a trusted ally. Our two product lines, BOLD Integrated Payments and Tonic POS Software can be deployed together for a unified end-to-end experience or used independently for maximum flexibility.
Listening first, building lasting relationships, and delivering measurable outcomes for our partners and merchants are central to how we operate as an organization.
Who We Are
We operate under a rapidly growing and widely accepted business philosophy called “EOS” (Entrepreneurial Operating System). In learning to utilize EOS, you will have the ability to drive growth and be an empowered decision maker, something that you can’t get in large, slow-moving organizations.
As we grow, we are intentional about protecting our small-company spirit: staying agile, taking ownership, and maintaining strong relationships. We strive to live our values every day and in every way. We believe culture is built through the habits we practice: Value + Habit = Culture, and we are looking for others who feel the same way:
  • We are ALL IN: We are committing wholeheartedly to a clear vision. Mission first and team always by: following through, owning outcomes, and finishing what we start for the success of ALL involved: our employees, our partners, our vendors, our communities, and our customers.
  • We DARE TO BE DIFFERENT: We embrace our entrepreneurial DNA and small-company spirit as we scale, taking responsibility as first movers, simplifying the complex, and maintaining a culture of fun and approachability while prioritizing our partners and team members first.
  • We are HUMAN: We are grounded in accountability and genuineness, we build strong relationships by listening to understand, communicating clearly, speaking truth with care, and respecting different perspectives with grace as we grow.
How will you make an impact in this role? As Staff QA Engineer, you will operate as a force multiplier for quality across the organization. You define QA processes that multiple teams adopt, establish standards for automation and coverage, and ensure that quality is embedded in the development lifecycle rather than being a separate phase. Teams will become less reliant on QA as a last gate because you've helped them build quality in from the start.
You will report to the Quality Assurance Manager, Alan Piche.
