- Working closely with engineering and product teams, you will identify risks early and help deliver reliable features with greater confidence and speed.
- The role combines hands-on automation with the opportunity to define QA standards, documentation, and best practices across the organization.
- As the product and team grow, you will have the opportunity to hire, mentor, and eventually lead a dedicated QA team.

- Build functional and regression testing coverage to ensure product stability as new features and releases are introduced.
- Develop automation scripts capable of reliably handling dynamic and asynchronous web elements.
- Use modern automation frameworks such as Selenium, Cypress, or Playwright to improve testing efficiency and coverage.
- Partner closely with engineering and product teams to identify high-risk areas, prioritize testing efforts, and strengthen overall product quality.
- Investigate issues and create clear, detailed, and reproducible bug reports to accelerate resolution.
- Establish and maintain QA documentation, testing guidelines, and repeatable quality assurance processes.
- Help integrate quality practices earlier into the development lifecycle to identify defects before they reach production.
- Monitor and continuously improve automated test coverage, reliability, and execution efficiency.
- As the organization scales, contribute to building the QA function by hiring, mentoring, and leading additional quality engineering talent.
