Full Job Description
- Perform thorough testing of REST/GraphQL APIs (functional, contract, negative, performance smoke) using tools like Postman/Insomnia; validate requests/responses, auth flows, and integrations.
- Test web applications end-to-end across major browsers; verify complex business rules with extensive branching and edge cases.
- Work directly with requirements: clarify acceptance criteria, identify gaps, and design test conditions for large feature sets.
- Validate data at rest and in transit: craft SQL queries to verify persistence, migrations, and reconciliation scenarios.
- Create detailed, structured test plans, test cases, and checklists in TestRail; keep suites up-to-date as features evolve.
- Collaborate closely with developers and product to triage and resolve defects in Jira; provide clear reproduction steps and logs.
- Use network/debug proxies (Charles, Proxyman) and review Swagger/OpenAPI specs to align tests with contracts.
- Contribute to CI/CD quality gates awareness (test artifacts, smoke checklists, release sign-off).
- Optional: read/understand small JavaScript snippets to reason about UI logic (no coding required).
Sharp analytical mind with strong logical thinking and curiosity; you love figuring out how complex systems work. - Comfortable juggling multiple streams while keeping quality high and deadlines realistic.
- A collaborative teammate who communicates clearly and drives issues to closure.
- Proactive, self-driven, and eager to learn new domains and tools., 3+ years of professional QA experience with a focus on Web/API and backend validations.
- Strong understanding of SDLC and Agile (Scrum/Kanban) practices.
- Solid API testing expertise (HTTP, auth, headers, JSON, error codes, idempotency, timeouts, retries).
- Hands-on with SQL and databases for data verification and debugging.
- Familiar with client-server architecture, logging/monitoring basics, and CI/CD concepts.
- Tools: Postman/Insomnia, Swagger/OpenAPI, Charles/Proxyman, Jira, Confluence, TestRail.
- Able to read JavaScript at a basic level to understand what's happening (no need to write production code).
- Growth mindset toward QA automation is a plus (e.g., understanding of test design for future automation; Playwright/Postman scripts/JavaScript is a bonus, not a must).
- Nice to have: understanding of credit products (limits, interest, schedules, delinquencies).
