  • Collaborate closely with developers, product managers, and other stakeholders as a QA feature owner

  • Validate A/B tests and support feature quality during experiments and releases

It’s all about you

    • 2+ years of commercial experience in backend manual testing

    • Experience testing mobile applications (iOS and/or Android)

    • Strong practical knowledge of Postman, Swagger, and API testing approaches

    • Experience working with proxy/debugging tools such as Charles, Fiddler, or similar

    • Experience testing backend systems using relational or non-relational databases (SQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, etc.)

    • Understanding of QA processes, SDLC, Scrum, DoR, and DoD principles

    • Experience creating test documentation from scratch

    • Ability to analyze requirements and identify edge cases independently

    • Experience working with Jira and Confluence

    • Experience with A/B testing and validating experiment results

    • Experience collaborating with Product Support teams
    • Expertise with MongoDB testing
