Description

As a QA Engineer at Four Principles, you will be responsible for evaluating, validating, and safeguarding the quality and reliability of our digital products across mobile and web platforms. You will play a critical role in identifying bugs early in the development cycle, improving product reliability, and ensuring that applications perform as intended across all platforms and use cases.

Working closely with developers, designers, and product managers, you will design and execute comprehensive test strategies, champion a quality-first culture, and directly support the delivery of high-quality digital solutions and seamless user experiences.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and execute comprehensive test plans, test cases, and test scripts for mobile (iOS and Android) and web applications, based on product requirements and technical specifications.

• Perform functional, regression, integration, system, user acceptance (UAT), and exploratory testing across all stages of the development lifecycle.

• Design, develop, and maintain automated test suites using relevant frameworks such as Playwright and Selenium.

• Conduct API testing using tools such as Postman or REST-assured to validate backend integrations and data integrity.

• Perform compatibility and cross-device testing to ensure consistent behaviour across platforms, OS versions, and screen sizes.

• Support performance and load testing to ensure application responsiveness and stability under varying loads.

• Document software defects and track them through to resolution using Jira or Azure DevOps, providing clear reproduction steps and severity assessments.

• Ensure test coverage across all critical application paths, edge cases, and regression scenarios.

• Review requirements, specifications, and technical design documents to provide timely and meaningful feedback, including contributing to Definition of Done and acceptance criteria.

• Participate in Agile ceremonies including sprint planning, backlog grooming, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives as a quality advocate.

• Monitor and report on QA metrics, test coverage, and release readiness to stakeholders.

• Contribute to the continuous improvement of QA processes, tooling, and standards within the team.

• Strong knowledge of QA methodologies, tools, and processes.

• Experience writing clear, concise, and comprehensive test plans and test cases.

• Experience with test automation frameworks such as Playwright or Selenium.

• Familiarity with Flutter application testing (unit, widget, and integration tests) is a strong advantage.

• Proficiency in API testing tools such as Postman or SoapUI.

• Familiarity with bug tracking and project management tools, particularly Jira or Azure DevOps.

• Good understanding of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and Agile/Scrum practices.

• Ability to read and write basic code (e.g., Dart, JavaScript, or Python) for test automation purposes.

• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with keen attention to detail.

• Strong verbal and written communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a cross-functional team.
