Senior QA Engineer (Manual + Automation)

Summary

Own end-to-end quality for new features using manual and automated testing with Playwright, REST APIs, and AI-assisted QA tools like Claude Code.

We're looking for a senior QA engineer who's comfortable with both manual and automated testing and owns quality for a feature end to end.

The team you'd join
2 backend developers (PHP / Symfony)
3 frontend developers (React / TypeScript)
QA engineer
DevOps / Security engineer
Product Designer
Engineering manager

What you'll do
Own testing for new features end to end — from reading the spec and writing test cases through to verifying the release.
Expand our Playwright coverage: extend the existing suite and automate the regression cases that currently take the most manual time.
Run exploratory and manual testing where automating isn't worth the cost yet.
Practice AI-assisted QA as part of your daily workflow — using Claude Code and MCP to draft and review test cases, test data, and documentation.

What we expect from you
6+ years of commercial QA experience covering both manual and automated testing
Hands-on Playwright
Comfortable testing REST APIs and writing SQL against MySQL to verify data
Solid test documentation: cases, checklists, and bug reports developers can act on without a follow-up conversation
Hands-on practice with AI tooling in your QA workflow — you use it daily, not occasionally
C1 (Advanced) English — comfortable in async written communication and on calls

Work format
Fully remote (B2B contract) — work from anywhere
Flexible hours within an 08:00 – 20:00 (CEST) window

Hiring process
Three stages, typically 2–3 weeks end to end:
Intro call (~45 min) — non-technical, mutual fit
Technical interview — QA / AQA
Conversation with the CTO — final alignment
