Job description

NASTP Silicon Valley, Karachi Full Time Quality Assurance

Job Description

Build and maintain the automated tests that keep our web and mobile releases dependable.

The Division:

Quality Assurance works alongside the product and engineering teams at NASTP, testing the platforms KDys Lab builds across healthcare, e-commerce and real estate. You sit with the developers whose work you test, not apart from them.

The Position:

You will own the automated test suites for the projects you are assigned: writing them, keeping them honest as the product changes, and making their results something the team trusts enough to release on. Expect a mix of building new coverage for features in development and hardening what already exists. Exploratory testing is part of the job too — automation is how a finding gets locked in, not a replacement for looking at the product.

Responsibilities:

• Write and maintain automated UI and API test suites for web and mobile releases
• Turn requirements and designs into test cases before a feature is built
• Run exploratory and regression passes ahead of each release
• Report defects with clear reproduction steps, evidence and severity
• Keep the suites running in CI and investigate failures rather than muting them
• Work with developers on fixes and verify them before they close
• Track coverage gaps and make the case for the ones worth closing

Required Skills:

• 2+ years testing web or mobile applications, at least one of them writing automation
• A test automation framework in practice — Playwright, Cypress, Selenium or similar
• API testing with Postman or a code-based equivalent
• Test design: boundaries, negative cases, data setup and teardown
• Git, and comfort working inside a CI pipeline
• Defect reports someone else can act on without asking questions

Soft Skills:

• Precise written communication — a defect report is only as good as its reproduction steps
• Persistence in chasing an intermittent failure to its cause
• Working with developers as colleagues, not as an audit
• Judgement about what is worth automating and what is not
