What you'll do
- Review tickets and product specs to write thorough test plans and test cases before development starts
- Execute functional, regression, and exploratory testing across web (Next.js), mobile (React Native/Expo), and API surfaces
- Test payment flows, KYC/identity verification, and onboarding funnels — catching edge cases that matter in a financial product
- File clear, reproducible bug reports with steps, environment details, and screenshots or screen recordings
- Verify bug fixes and validate releases before they go live
- Maintain and improve our test case library in Linear
- Participate in sprint ceremonies and give QA input during planning to catch issues early
- Partner with engineers on defining acceptance criteria for new features
Required skills and experience
- 3+ years of QA experience, ideally at a startup or product company
- Strong instincts for finding edge cases — you break things methodically, not randomly
- Experience testing both web and mobile apps (iOS and Android)
- Comfort testing REST APIs using tools like Postman or similar
- Ability to write clear bug reports in English — details like environment, steps to reproduce, and expected vs. actual behavior
- Organized and self-directed — you can manage your own test queue without a lot of hand-holding
- Experience with a project management tool (Linear, Jira, or similar)
- Professional working proficiency in English (written and spoken)
Nice-to-have
- Experience in fintech, payments, or any product handling financial data
- Familiarity with Playwright, Cypress, or other automated testing frameworks
- Some scripting ability in Python or JavaScript — enough to read test code and eventually write it
- Exposure to compliance-sensitive workflows (KYC, identity verification, regulated flows)
- Experience testing white-label or multi-tenant SaaS products
