We are seeking a curious, detail-oriented, and quality-driven tester who is passionate about building great products within a startup culture. This role goes beyond traditional testing—you will be responsible for evaluating the entire product experience before it reaches the client.

Your primary responsibility will be testing across product functionality, UI, UX, and overall usability, while also having basic awareness of automation testing tools and concepts.

You will work closely with developers, designers, and product teams to ensure that what we ship is stable, intuitive, clean, and client-ready.

Key Responsibilities

1. Manual Testing (Primary Focus)

• Perform end-to-end manual testing of web and/or mobile applications.
• Test all product features to ensure they work as expected across different scenarios.
• Identify, document, and report bugs, edge cases, inconsistencies, and usability issues.
• Validate fixes and ensure issues are fully resolved before release.
• Test applications from a real user’s perspective, not just based on requirements.

2. Product-Level Testing

• Evaluate whether the product:
• Solves the intended problem
• Has all the required features
• Feels complete and production-ready
• Identify missing flows, broken logic, or confusing behaviors.
• Ensure the product delivers a good overall experience, not just correct functionality.

3. UI Testing

• Review the visual quality of the product:
• Layout consistency
• Alignment, spacing, typography, and colors
• Check if the UI is:
• Clean and intuitive
• Not overly complex or cluttered
• Easy for users to understand and navigate
• Report UI inconsistencies across screens, devices, or browsers.

4. UX Testing

• Analyze how smooth and logical the user journey is.
• Identify friction points in:
• Navigation
• User flows
• Interactions and feedback
• Ensure the product feels natural, fast, and easy to use.
• Suggest improvements to enhance usability and user satisfaction.

5. Automation Testing Awareness

• understanding of automation testing concepts.
• Familiarity with common automation tools such as
• Selenium
• Cypress
• Playwright
• Postman (for API testing)
• Ability to understand where automation fits into the testing lifecycle.

6. Code Awareness (Secondary)

• Have a basic understanding of code and system behavior.
• Ability to:
• Read logs or error messages
• Understand where issues might originate
• Direct code-level testing is not mandatory, but awareness is a plus.

What We’re Looking For

Skills & Traits

• Strong attention to detail and observation skills
• Ability to think like an end user
• Logical thinking and problem-solving mindset
• Curious to explore edge cases and unusual scenarios
• Clear communication when reporting issues
• willingness to learn and improve continuously

Mindset & Passion

• You genuinely care about product quality
• You enjoy finding bugs, gaps, and improvements
• You take ownership of the product before it reaches the client
• You aim for “client-ready and polished,” not just “working.”

Eligibility

• A background in Computer Science, IT, Engineering, or related fields is a plus

What You’ll Gain

• Hands-on experience testing real products
• Exposure to the full product lifecycle before client delivery
• Strong foundation in manual testing, UI/UX evaluation, and product thinking
• Mentorship from experienced developers and product teams
• Opportunity to grow into a full-time QA or Product Quality role
