Who we are

😼 We are a small but very competitive startup.
We are incredibly visionary. Decently competent. Reasonably funded. Subpar at sticking to deadlines.

• Cool af: What we are building and how we are doing it are one for the history books.
• Chill af: Work remotely, manage your own time, skip work when you need to.
• 0% BS: 0% political behaviour, 0% bureaucracy, 0% pedantry, 0% ass-kissing.
• Give & Take: We won’t take a bullet for you but we’ll never throw you under the bus either.
• Not a: Family. But not a toxic elite team either. Just… a competitive yet reliable company.

The role

💼 No fixed role or rank.
We offer you a role as big as you can handle. If you’re a senior QA architect (and prove it) we’ll let you drive. If you’re a talented newbie, we’ll let you intern.

• Make the first move: Pitch your QA strengths, desired level, and compensation.
• Expect negotiation: We’ll match on scope and budget.
• Prove your worth: Demonstrate successful bug hunts or coverage metrics.

What you’ll do

🐛 Exterminate bugs. Just that.
Ensure every release ships rock-solid quality with full automation.

• Test Automation: Unit, integration & E2E suites (Jest, Cypress, Playwright).
• Performance & Load: K6/Gatling scripts & benchmarking.
• Security Testing: OWASP ZAP, vulnerability scans, pen-testing workflows.
• Chaos Engineering: Controlled failure injections & resilience drills.
• CI Integration: GitHub Actions workflows with automated test gates.
• Monitoring & Alerts: Quality metrics, dashboards & SNS notifications.
• Collaboration: Partner with Deployment & Infra specialist and devs for seamless releases.

How you’ll do it

🧠 Work smarter, not harder.
Automate, automate, automate. Do so with good taste, common sense and care.

• GPT: Ask our most senior and wisest advisor.
• Plan ahead: Plan first (even for yourself) → confirm when necessary → execute methodically.
• Be strategic: Not dogmatic. Not experimental. Choose a result, find how to get it.
• Guidance: Collaborate directly with the founder and exec advisors.
• Notion: Organise test plans, runbooks & bug reports.
• Other tools: Jest, Cypress, Playwright, K6, OWASP ZAP, Docker, AWS CLI…
• Feedback: Iterate from metrics, insights, and team reviews.

Who you are

💍 We want true love, not a marriage of convenience.
We don’t care about your qualifications, 5+ years of experience, etc.

• A well paid hobby: You’d do this for free because you love it; it just happens to be profitable.
• Avid learner: You like learning your craft, new frameworks, testing methodologies...
• Curious: You want to peek behind the scenes, witness history, see how things work.
• Comfortable with new stuff: You don’t tolerate uncertainty; you enjoy it.
• Adventurous: You hate corporate laziness; you’d hack this just for the thrill.
• Assertive: You say what you want clearly and respectfully, without games or roundabouts.
• Analytical: You thrive on metrics, logs, and long hours digging into performance issues.

When

🏡 Join in 30–90 days, stay forever.
We are looking for a long term relationship, not short term fun.

• Rolling interviews: We interview (and hire) as CVs arrive. First come first served.
• Start: As early as July 1st & as late as September 1st.
• Bonus: Performance-based cash bonuses.

What

👀 Show us something worth seeing.
But most importantly, show us YOU. A perfect CV will land you an interview, not a role.

• CV: Keep a balance of readability and completeness, the rest is up to you.
• Portfolio: Test repos, coverage dashboards, bug tracker stats…
• Recommendations: From QA leads, SREs, peers… your mom?
• Cover letter: Tell us why you want to work here!
