About the Job
atVenu powers live event commerce for concerts, festivals, and stadiums worldwide — and when the show starts, our software must work. We're growing fast and looking for an Intermediate QA Analyst who's sharp, technically curious, and holds themselves to a higher standard than most.
Our bar for detail and accuracy is genuinely high. A missed edge case doesn't just create a bug ticket — it can disrupt the sales of merch, food and beverages in front of tens of thousands of people. We need someone who takes that seriously: methodical enough to catch what others miss and experienced enough to know where to look.
This role is API-first. You'll own API testing across our platform, partnering closely with developers, product managers and fellow QA to catch issues before they ever reach a live event.
What You’ll Do
API & Backend Testing
Design, execute, and maintain API test cases across GraphQL operations — validating queries, mutations, request/response payloads, error handling, authentication flows, schema integrity, and resolver behaviour
Own end-to-end testing of the public-facing GraphQL API, and serve as a subject matter expert supporting other QA teams on private API functionality within their respective domains
Design and execute load and performance tests, using k6 (or similar) identifying bottlenecks, establishing baseline benchmarks, and validating behaviour under peak and sustained conditions
Identify gaps in API coverage and proactively recommend testing strategies
Automation
Build automated API test suites from the ground up using tools like Postman, Bruno, or similar
Collaborate with dev and other QA to identify high-value automation opportunities
Integrate API and load tests into the CI/CD pipeline to enable automated execution on each release, catching issues early and maintaining performance baselines
Help shape and execute the team's automation roadmap as it pertains to API
QA Process
Write structured test cases with automation in mind from the start
Track, document, and manage defects through their full lifecycle
Participate in release management and provide clear, concise QA summaries for stakeholders
What You’ll Bring
Completed a QA certification, or a relevant diploma or degree
3+ years of progressive experience in a QA role, with hands‑on API testing (REST/GraphQL)
Experience with API testing tools (Postman, Bruno, or similar)
Experience with load testing tools such as k6, or similar
Familiarity with API security testing concepts and common vulnerability patterns
Familiarity with automation frameworks — Webdriver IO, Appium, or comparable
Ability to read and write basic scripts or queries (SQL, JavaScript, or similar)
Strong communicator who can translate technical findings for developers and non-technical stakeholders alike
Analytical but pragmatic — you know when enough testing is enough
Provide feedback and results in a way that engages the developers and product managers to work collaboratively on solutions
Nice to Have
Experience with financial or payments applications
Security or compliance testing background
CI/CD pipeline experience
Location
Our QA team is tight-knit, Calgary-based, and mostly remote. We offer real mentorship and a clear path to grow your career in QA. Candidates in Calgary are preferred, but we're open to the right fit.
