About the role
This is a hands-on testing role that is critical to ensuring release readiness across web, mobile, APIs, and integrations. You’ll report into a distributed engineering team and take ownership of test strategy, system documentation, and test case design. As a Manual Test Engineer, you’ll plan and execute functional, regression, exploratory, cross-browser, and mobile tests, manage test data, log and triage defects in GitHub, verify fixes, and contribute to release quality.
To succeed, you’ll bring persistence, excellent written English for high-signal defect reports, and the ability to collaborate closely with engineers and product teams across time zones.
