Manual QA Tester

💡 Do you thrive in fast-paced environments where you can take ownership and make things happen? 

We’re looking for a Manual QA Tester to join a growing health-tech organization as their dedicated QA resource. In this role, you’ll work closely with developers, internal teams, and external clients to ensure every release meets the highest quality standards. 

You’ll have full ownership of the QA process - from designing test plans to executing and documenting results - and the autonomy to proactively identify issues and improvements before anyone asks. This is a great opportunity for someone with a startup mindset who enjoys taking initiative, solving problems independently, and driving continuous improvement. 

💻 Who You Are 

You’re a methodical and analytical QA professional who takes pride in finding issues before they reach production. You’re proactive, adaptable, and thrive in environments where not everything is perfectly defined - you bring structure, ownership, and follow-through wherever you go.

• Collaborate with developers, internal stakeholders, and clients to clarify requirements and validate fixes. 
• Verify production issues, perform root cause validation, and support post-release testing. 
• Maintain testing documentation and continuously improve QA processes and efficiency. 
• Communicate clearly and proactively about test results, risks, and coverage.
