The Opportunity
We’re looking for a capable and self-driven Senior QA Engineer to join an agile squad on a contract basis. While this isn’t a heavily layered QA team, you’ll play a critical role as the sole QA within the squad, owning the quality function end-to-end.
This role is ideal for someone with solid experience who is comfortable working independently, making decisions, and getting hands-on across multiple testing areas.
Key Responsibilities
  • Take full ownership of QA within an agile squad
  • Plan, coordinate, and execute testing activities across:
    • Mobile applications
    • Web/UI interfaces
    • APIs and backend services
  • Design and implement effective test strategies and test cases
  • Perform hands-on testing (manual and exploratory as needed)
  • Collaborate closely with developers, product owners, and stakeholders
  • Ensure quality standards are met throughout the delivery lifecycle
  • Identify risks, issues, and areas for improvement proactively
What You’ll Bring
  • 5+ years of QA experience in software testing
  • Strong experience across mobile, UI, and API testing
  • Proven ability to work as a sole QA in a squad environment
  • Confidence in owning and driving QA processes independently
  • Solid understanding of Agile methodologies
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills
