About the Role

We are looking for a QA Analyst to join our distributed QA team in a role centered on production deployment support. You will be the quality gate during live platform releases across multiple systems, working closely with developers and delivery teams to validate that every deployment lands cleanly.

Beyond deployments, you will contribute to day-to-day QA across our platforms: writing test cases, running API tests, and reporting defects with precision.

Key Responsibilities

• Own QA sign-off during live production deployments, providing real-time validation and clear go/no-go communication to the delivery team
• Collaborate with Product Owners, Business Analysts, and Developers to understand requirements and define test strategies ahead of release
• Write and maintain well-structured test cases and test plans in Xray
• Report defects in Jira with clear reproduction steps, environment context, and expected vs. actual outcomes
• Conduct API testing in Postman, including pre-request scripts and environment configuration
• Use SQL queries to validate data and support backend testing

Must-haves:

• 4+ years in software QA with a track record of owning quality end-to-end
• Demonstrated experience supporting or participating in production deployments; you are calm, methodical, and decisive under time pressure
• Strong API testing skills using Postman or similar tools, including pre-request script authoring
• Solid working knowledge of SQL for data validation and backend test support
• Clear, precise written communication; your defect reports do not leave developers guessing
• Comfortable working independently within a distributed team
• BS/MS in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience

Nice to have:

• Familiarity with Playwright (JavaScript/TypeScript) or Selenium WebDriver; our automation landscape is evolving, and exposure here is an asset

Technologies & Tools we use: Postman, Jira, Xray, SQL Server, Azure, Chrome DevTools

We provide a competitive compensation package with a strong pay for performance rewards approach. Employees have the opportunity to participate in incentive programs and compensation tied to business and individual performance. The expected base compensation range for this position is: $75,000 to $80,000.
