Job Description
We are looking for an experienced QA Specialist to take full ownership of quality assurance across our product. You will be the primary QA voice on the team — embedded in our Agile development process, working directly with developers on every sprint, and responsible for ensuring nothing reaches production without proper validation.
This is a hands-on role. You will test features as they are built, validate APIs and database behavior, document findings clearly, and continuously improve how quality is embedded into our development cycle.
Job responsibilities
• Perform end-to-end testing of platform features, APIs, and integrations across the full product (web interfaces, backend services, and database layers)
• Define testing scope and maintain test documentation (test plans, test cases, and sprint QA summaries)
• Design and execute API tests validating request/response payloads, authentication flows, error handling, and business logic
• Conduct backend and database validation using SQL to ensure data integrity and consistency
• Investigate and troubleshoot issues using logs, network analysis, and database queries (not just surface-level UI testing)
• Manage defects in Jira, ensuring full lifecycle tracking from discovery to resolution
• Contribute to and continuously improve QA processes and best practices within the team
• Support release processes (ensure product quality is verified before every deployment to staging and production)
• Collaborate with developers and product management to identify quality risks early in the sprint cycle
• Explore and integrate AI-assisted testing tools into the QA workflow to increase coverage and reduce manual repetition
• Produce clear sprint QA summaries documenting what was tested, what was found, and production readiness status
Required qualifications
• 3+ years of experience in software QA
• Strong hands-on experience in API testing using Postman, Swagger, or equivalent tools
• Solid understanding of RESTful API principles (HTTP methods, status codes, authentication mechanisms, and response schema validation)
• Solid SQL skills for backend validation, data integrity checks, and troubleshooting
• Experience with both manual and automated testing
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting mindset (comfortable digging into logs, network traffic, and database state)
• Proficiency with Jira for defect tracking and sprint participation
• Experience working in an Agile/Scrum environment
• Clear written and spoken English for documentation and cross-team communication
• We place high value on punctuality, reliability, and consistent presence. This role requires someone who shows up, follows through, and takes ownership of their commitments.
Additional information
Nice to Have:
• Experience in performance and security testing.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and integrating QA processes into automated deployments.
• Understanding of Agile methodologies and working within a Scrum team
