QA manual tester

Be the person who makes sure our products actually work for the people who use them.

Daemon Ventures is a US technology company that builds and runs internet businesses with a very small team and heavy use of AI. We are hiring a full-time QA tester to see our products through our customers' eyes. You will use our live products the way a real customer would, every day, and make sure that nothing broken, confusing or inconsistent goes unnoticed.

What you'll do

- Every day, go through our live products as a new customer would: sign up with a real email address, check that the emails arrive, use the core features, pay, cancel and ask for help. Do this on your phone and on a computer.

- Test new products and significant changes before and after they go live.

- Report what you find clearly:

- the steps to reproduce it

- what you expected

- what actually happened

- a screenshot or screen recording

- how much it matters to a customer

- Re-test every fix, and mark it done only when it really works.

- Notice what nobody asked you to check: a price that doesn't match, an email that lands in spam, a page that's confusing on a small screen.

- Suggest what should be checked automatically, so the same problem is caught immediately next time.

Who you are

- Meticulous and persistent. You finish every flow end to end, including the steps after the first screen.

- A clear writer in English. Anyone can reproduce your report without asking you a question.

- Reliable. You keep a daily rhythm without being chased, and you report the real state, including "I couldn't finish this, and here's why."

- Good judgment about what matters. You can tell a bug that loses customers from a cosmetic one.

- Comfortable working remotely, independently and alongside AI. Much of our building and operations is automated, and your reports go straight into that work.

Details

- Full-time and remote, within India. You would be engaged as an independent contractor, paid monthly.

- Experience: 1–3 years of manual testing of web or mobile products.

- Helpful: browser developer tools, mobile testing and a bug tracker.

- Pluses, not requirements: API testing (e.g. Postman), basic SQL, or some exposure to test automation.

- Pay: ₹6–9 LPA, based on experience.

- Process:

1. A short application that includes a practical test (about 30–45 minutes).

2. A conversation or two.

3. A first month working together on the real work.

Desire candidate

• Candidate should have valid PF.

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Senior QA Engineer to join our engineering team in Hyderabad. This is primarily a Manual QA role for someone who takes strong ownership of product quality and system stability. The ideal candidate should be proactive in identifying issues before they impact users, maintaining strong regression coverage, monitoring production behaviour, and working closely with developers to continuously improve application reliability.

Experience with test automation is a strong advantage, but the primary focus of this role is hands-on manual testing and quality ownership.

Key Responsibilities

· Own end-to-end quality across new features, existing functionality, integrations, and production releases.

· Perform functional, regression, integration, API, exploratory, smoke, and end-to-end testing across web applications and backend services.

· Build and maintain comprehensive test cases, regression suites, checklists, and release validation processes.

· Proactively monitor applications and production behaviour, identify unusual patterns or failures, and investigate issues before they become customer-impacting problems.

· Work closely with developers and product teams to reproduce issues, identify root causes, validate fixes, and prevent regressions.

· Test APIs and third-party integrations using tools such as Postman and validate data directly using MySQL.

· Take ownership of release quality, production stability, defect prevention, and continuous improvement of QA processes.

· Contribute to automation testing where appropriate and help identify high-value areas for automation.

Required Skills & Experience

· 5+ years of professional QA/testing experience, with strong hands-on experience in manual testing.

· Strong experience with functional testing, regression testing, integration testing, exploratory testing, release testing, and defect management.

· Strong working knowledge of MySQL, including writing queries to validate data, investigate issues, and troubleshoot application behaviour.

· Experience testing REST APIs, third-party integrations, and backend services, preferably using Postman or similar tools.

· Good understanding of web applications, client-server architecture, APIs, databases, authentication, and common application workflows.

· Experience with production monitoring, log analysis, incident investigation, root-cause analysis, and post-release validation.

· Ability to create clear test scenarios, identify edge cases, reproduce complex issues, and communicate defects effectively.

· Strong ownership, problem-solving, attention to detail, and communication skills.

Automation – Good to Have

Experience with Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, or similar automation frameworks would be an advantage. The candidate should be able to identify scenarios that are suitable for automation, contribute to automated regression coverage, and work with developers to improve overall test efficiency.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who thinks beyond simply executing test cases. The successful candidate should take personal ownership of application quality and stability, proactively look for weaknesses in the system, question assumptions, identify risks, and continuously improve regression coverage.

They should be comfortable monitoring production behaviour, investigating problems independently, following issues through to resolution, and ensuring that fixes do not introduce new regressions. The candidate must be comfortable working with an international team and willing to work from our Hyderabad office during UK business hours.
