Job Description

Our client is looking for a QA Engineer to join their team in New York City. You will be joining the product team and taking ownership of quality assurance for the pod's features across web and mobile platforms. This role is critical in maintaining the high standards our users expect and ensuring every release meets the quality

benchmarks. You will develop and maintain comprehensive test plans for all features owned by the pod and define testing scope, objectives, and success criteria for each feature lifecycle. You will perform thorough smoke testing (happy path validation) on release candidates across web and mobile platforms and ensure zero critical defects reach production without being ticketed and acknowledged by engineering and product staff. You will collaborate closely with engineering teams to perform in-depth ad hoc testing for all

new features and identify and test edge cases, boundary conditions, and potential failure scenarios. Your day to day will differ but some days will require you to go onsite to merchant locations and work through the user experience real time and use this to test/find bugs, defects etc. We are looking for someone that is quick and used/excited by an everchanging environment. This role will be a mix of remote and onsite in the office.

We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day.
