Junior QA Engineer

Responsibilities

• Executing comprehensive test cases across web and mobile applications, validating functionality against technical specifications and user stories.
• Building automated test suites from scratch for web and mobile applications, including UI automation and API testing using frameworks like Selenium, Playwright, or Cypress.
• Hunting for bugs and edge cases with a critical eye, then documenting and tracking them clearly using Linear and Notion.
• Running regression tests to ensure new code doesn't break existing functionality, especially critical for underwriting and payment flows.
• Contributing to test planning by creating detailed test cases based on technical specs and collaborating with Product and Engineering teams.
• Collaborating closely with developers to understand technical implementation, reproduce issues efficiently, and validate fixes.
• Maintaining documentation of test results, procedures, and quality metrics to improve team processes.
• Testing APIs and backend systems using tools like Postman, validating HTTP requests, REST endpoints, and data flows.
• Learning and growing your skills in performance testing, load testing, and advanced automation techniques.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, IT, or related field (or equivalent practical experience building technical skills).
• Solid understanding of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and where QA fits in the development process.
• Understanding of backend concepts like Redis, message brokers, queues, and background tasks that power modern applications.
• Keen eye for UI/UX details and the ability to spot when something feels off or doesn't match expected behavior.
• Hands‑on experience with testing tools like Postman and basic exposure to UI automation frameworks (Selenium, Playwright, Cypress).
• Strong communication skills to clearly document bugs, explain technical issues, and collaborate with engineering teams.
• Relentless attention to detail and a passion for finding edge cases that others miss.

• Experience with version control systems like Git and collaborative development workflows.
• Exposure to advanced testing tools like JMeter, k6, Appium, or Lambda Test for performance and mobile testing.
• Understanding of CI/CD pipelines and how automated tests integrate into deployment workflows.
• Experience in fintech, payments, or regulated environments where quality is critical.
