QA Engineer

Description: 

THE PLACEITRex - AI pioneers who build systems that actually work in the real world, not just in demos. We're 200+ people spread across the US and Europe, creating solutions for companies like P&G and Shutterstock. We keep it simple, build it right, and focus on what works.

THE PEOPLEWe're the kind of people who don't ignore messages in Slack, who jump in to help when you're stuck on a problem, and who offer solutions instead of blame when things go sideways. We believe in openness, accountability, and having each other's backs. No office politics, no hidden agendas - just people who care about doing good work together and supporting each other to get there.

THE ROLEWe are looking for a QA Engineer to join a high-scale product in the digital finance / blockchain domain. Our client is a globally distributed tech company building high-load, security-critical solutions used by millions of users. The product ecosystem is with a strong focus on mobile.

• Use AI tools as part of the QA toolkit to enhance test coverage and efficiency
• Collaborate closely with developers, product managers, and stakeholders to ensure product quality
• Define and establish QA processes and best practices for new projects
• Act as the sole QA when required, owning the end-to-end testing process
• Contribute as part of a QA team, ensuring alignment with shared goals and standards
• Work with product requirements together with the team during backlog refinement
• Participate in Agile ceremonies and provide input on quality-related risks

Technical Skills

• Strong experience in manual testing across multiple platforms: Mobile applications (iOS/Android), Web applications, APIs (REST, GraphQL, etc.)
• Experience working with traffic sniffers / proxy tools such as Charles Proxy, Fiddler, Proxyman, etc
• Hands-on experience applying an agentic approach across the SDLC (e.g., Claude Code, AI agents for test design, execution, and defect analysis)
• Ability to design, execute, and maintain comprehensive test documentation
• Familiarity with bug tracking and test management systems (e.g., Zephyr, Qase, Test Trello)
• Understanding of SDLC and QA’s role within Agile, Scrum, or Kanban environments

Business & Collaboration

• Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written, with an ability to convey information clearly and concisely
• Product-oriented and collaborative mindset, effective in Agile cross-functional environments
• Strong attention to detail and ownership of quality
• Ability to stay effective under deadlines and production pressure
• Self-driven and proactive, able to operate independently within a defined framework

Why people stay

First, the foundation:

• Remote flexibility: Work where and how you work best - we trust you to deliver
• Fair compensation: Competitive salary + benefits that matter (medical, learning)

• AI enhancement: We leverage AI to make you faster and stronger - complementing your abilities, not replacing them
• Learning investment: English classes, professional development
• Career progression: Real paths up, not just sideways shuffling

Finally, the people:

• Responsive teammates: No ignored Slacks, no "not my problem" attitudes
• Supportive culture: When you're stuck, people help. When things break, we fix them together
• Human connections: Regular meetups, tech talks, and actual relationships beyond work
