The QA Engineer position is a critical role within our software development team, focusing on ensuring the quality and functionality of our web applications. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in quality assurance, particularly in UI testing, and will be responsible for creating and executing test cases to identify any issues before the product launch. This role requires a keen eye for detail and the ability to document and analyze bugs effectively. The QA Engineer will work closely with software developers to address any defects found during testing, ensuring that all issues are resolved before the product goes live. In this position, the QA Engineer will spend approximately 60% of their time on manual testing and 30% on automation, with the remaining time dedicated to other quality assurance tasks. As we are launching a brand new platform, the initial focus will be on manual testing to ensure that all functionalities are thoroughly vetted. A typical workday will involve developing new tests, executing them, and documenting the results. If any defects are identified, the QA Engineer will collaborate with developers to implement fixes and re-test the software to confirm that the issues have been resolved. The role also involves coaching team members on best practices for using testing tools, reporting results, and driving process improvements within the QA function. Familiarity with Agile and Scrum methodologies is essential, as the QA Engineer will be working in a fast-paced, iterative environment where collaboration and adaptability are key to success.
