What You’ll Bring

Tools & Tech You’ll Use  

- Jira and Confluence for tracking and documentation.

- Slack and Zoom for real-time collaboration—distance won’t slow us down.


Why You’ll Thrive Here  

You join a stealth-scale US technology firm that values curiosity over credentials. Mentorship is baked into our culture; certifications such as ISTQB Foundation are sponsored. Performance is measured by the bugs you prevent—not the hours you log. Prefer morning code or evening tests? Flexibility is real. Growth paths lead to Automation Engineer, QA Analyst, or even Product Owner. Your career, your call.
