• Partner closely with the Technical Product Manager and engineering teams to validate functionality and performance across integrations and data systems.
• Develop and execute detailed test plans, test cases, and test scripts to verify software functionality, system performance, and user experience.
• Identify and report software defects and track them to resolution using the Jira bug-tracking system.
• Participate in test strategy development and test design reviews and contribute to improving the QA process overall.
• Support alignment between QA processes and the broader product roadmap — ensuring test coverage for API workflows, AI-based automation, and data pipelines.
• Perform regression testing to validate bug fixes and ensure the stability of the software.
• Continuously monitor and enhance the effectiveness of the QA processes to meet industry standards and best practices.
• Stay current with the latest testing tools, techniques, and trends and proactively recommend improvements to existing processes.
• Contribute insights related to AI testing, data validation, and intelligent automation to enhance product reliability.

Requirements:

• Work experience as a quality assurance engineer or in a similar role.
• Good knowledge of software (QA) methodologies, tools, and processes.
• Familiarity with the software development lifecycle and Agile methodologies.
• Experience in manual testing, including test case design, execution, and defect tracking.
• Proficiency in using bug tracking systems (e.g., Jira, Bugzilla) to document and manage software defects.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with keen attention to detail.
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
• Ability to communicate effectively with product managers, data engineers, and developers to ensure product quality aligns with technical and business objectives.
• Self-motivated and proactive, able to work independently and in a team environment.

Skills (Optional):

• Experience with test automation using Cypress or similar frameworks.
• Knowledge of JavaScript or other programming languages for test automation.
• Familiarity with continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) processes.
• Experience validating automated pipelines that connect APIs, data systems, and AI-enabled components.
• Experience with API testing using tools like Postman or similar.
• Understanding of performance testing and security testing concepts.
• Knowledge of data accuracy validation, API performance benchmarking, and AI model output testing is a plus.

What We Offer:

• Competitive Hourly Pay: Based on your qualifications and experience as a contractor.
• Remote Work: Enjoy the flexibility of working from anywhere.
• Semi-Flexible Hours: Adapt your work schedule to fit your lifestyle better while meeting project deadlines.
