Responsibilities
- Develop and run smoke, manual, and exploratory test scenarios across mobile, web, and desktop environments.
- Perform functional, localization, regression, and payment system validations to verify application quality.
- Identify, document, and retest software defects discovered during test cycles.
- Record and communicate testing outcomes, including bugs and risk indicators.
- Evaluate test outputs, system logs, and related information to detect recurring issues and improvement opportunities.
- Work closely with engineers, product leads, and other team members to coordinate objectives, schedules, and deliverables.
- Provide clear, timely updates on testing status, blockers, and potential risks to relevant parties.
- Produce test summaries that deliver meaningful, actionable feedback.
- Build and execute API-level tests using Postman, SoapUI, or equivalent tools.
- Develop, update, and validate test cases and test suites in line with business goals and testing standards.
- Plan and structure efficient test data setups.
- Maintain the relevance of the test repository by revising, enhancing, and retiring outdated tests.
- Gain in-depth knowledge of the applications and systems being tested.
- Keep current with emerging trends and innovations in testing tools and techniques.
Other
- Project Focus: This role centers on Software Quality Assurance within Agile frameworks, with a primary emphasis on API testing.
- Project Duration: Assignments may be temporary (6 to 12 months) or ongoing; many short-term contracts are extended or transition into long-term engagements.
- Schedule: Both part-time and full-time contract options are available, with work hours typically aligned to daytime or early evening based on your local time zone.
- Timezone: While remote flexibility is supported, availability during core regional business hours (e.g., 9 AM–6 PM CST in the Americas or CET in EMEA) is expected.
- Required Devices: Access to either an Android or iOS mobile device is mandatory for test execution.
- Internet Connection: A stable, high-speed internet connection is essential; mobile hotspots and unreliable links are insufficient for testing and collaboration.
