About the Role

We are looking for hands-on QA Engineers with a strong background in both manual and automation testing to join our team. The ideal candidate has worked on real-world projects delivered to real customers — not just internal or academic exercises — and can independently own quality across the SDLC.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, write, and execute detailed test cases, test plans, and test scenarios based on functional and non-functional requirements
• Perform manual testing including functional, regression, exploratory, integration, and UAT support
• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins/GitHub Actions/GitLab CI or similar)
• Identify, log, track, and verify bugs using tools like JIRA, Azure DevOps, or similar
• Collaborate closely with developers, product managers, and business stakeholders to understand requirements and clarify acceptance criteria
• Perform API testing (Postman/REST Assured or equivalent)
• Participate in sprint planning, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives in an Agile/Scrum environment
• Analyze test results, prepare test summary reports, and communicate quality risks clearly to stakeholders
• Continuously improve test coverage, test strategy, and automation framework architecture

Required Skills & Experience

• 4+ years of hands-on experience in software QA, with a mix of manual and automation testing
• Strong, demonstrable experience with Playwright for automation (must have shipped automation for live, customer-facing products — not just POCs)
• Experience with API testing tools (Postman, REST Assured, or similar)
• Working knowledge of SQL for backend/data validation
• Experience with version control (Git) and CI/CD pipelines
• Strong understanding of QA methodologies, SDLC, and STLC
• Experience with bug tracking and test management tools (JIRA, TestRail, Zephyr, etc.)
• Proven experience working on production applications used by real, paying customers
• Excellent communication skills and ability to work directly with clients/stakeholders when needed

Good to Have

• Experience with other automation frameworks (Selenium, Cypress)
• Performance testing exposure (JMeter, k6)
• Experience with Docker/containerized test environments
• Exposure to mobile testing (Appium)
• ISTQB certification

What We're Looking For

• Hands-on doers, not just process documenters — someone who has actually built and maintained automation suites in production settings
• Candidates who can speak in detail about real projects: what they tested, what broke, how they automated it, and the impact it had for the customer
• Ownership mindset — comfortable taking a feature from requirements to release-ready quality with minimal hand-holding
