QA Engineer

🧭 About Zobaze

Zobaze is a mobile-first POS software built for small and micro businesses. We help them digitize billing, inventory, and daily ops. With 2M+ downloads and 130K+ receipts per day, we’re scaling responsibly and fast.

We’re a high-context, no-fluff team with deep product ownership. You’ll work directly with founders and shape how 70,000+ businesses run every day.

🛠️ What You’ll Own

• Be the first QA hire — define quality culture, not just write test cases
• Start by building a manual smoke suite (10–15 critical flows), and later automate it
• Set up automation tools from scratch (Appium, Selenium, Playwright, etc.)
• Test mobile workflows deeply — Few of the modules like billing, inventory, Reports, Role based permissions, async actions, crashes etc
• Catch edge cases: multi-language, regional behavior, offline handling
• Collaborate with devs to reproduce bugs, debug logs, and resolve quickly
• Build scalable regression coverage over time — in priority order
• Shape internal QA processes and establish SOPs — no one will hand them to you

✅ What We’re Looking For

Experience & Skill

• 2–4 years in a product-based startup (must) — not a service-based or enterprise QA setup
• Strong Android mobile app testing experience — iOS is a bonus
• Built or contributed to an automation suite (even basic is okay)
• Exposure to tools like Appium, Selenium, JMeter, Postman, Playwright is a plus
• Solid manual test fundamentals — edge-case thinking, exploratory mindset

Mindset & Culture

• Fast learner and deeply curious — always exploring tools, frameworks, or tech trends
• Shows awareness or interest in AI-assisted QA (test case generation, visual diffing, script maintenance, etc.)
• Comfortable working in chaos — no fixed process, full ownership from Day 1
• Has worked in small QA setups — not shielded in large test teams
• Takes pride in uncovering impactful bugs, not just checking boxes
• Handles QA–Dev disagreements with calm logic — uses acceptance criteria, not emotion
• Thinks automation is a tool to scale judgment, especially in release crunches

Attitude & Ambition

• QA engineer who is interested to evolve into QA architect with learnings from live project
• Sees every bug as a learning opportunity
• Doesn’t wait to be told what to test — thinks like a user, acts like an owner
• Wants to grow 2–3x faster by being at the heart of a lean, shipping-fast team
• Willing to relocate to Hyderabad and work from office, full-time
• Thrives under pressure — e.g., 1-hour release windows don’t scare you

❌ Do Not Apply If You…

• Prioritize comfort over learning or clarity over chaos
• Come from highly structured, slow-paced QA environments
• Need predefined SOPs and test plans to operate
• Get defensive when given feedback or asked probing questions
• Believe “bugs in production = failure” — we move fast, and course-correct fast

🌱 Why Zobaze?

• You’ll build something real — used by 1 Million+ businesses across the globe
• Work directly with founders and senior mentors — compound your growth
• Be the QA architect, not just a test executor
• Get exposure to product thinking, not just validation
• Learn fast, build fast, and create leverage through automation and AI
