[Hiring] Quality Assurance Analyst @Valsoft Corporation

Role Description

As QA Analyst, you will own the quality of what we ship. You will plan and run testing across Flexigrant, from exploratory, functional and regression testing through to building automated tests, working closely with our developers and Product Manager to catch issues early.

This is a hands-on role for a fast learner who enjoys getting to know a complex product in depth. Much of that product knowledge is built on the job, alongside the development team, so a real appetite to learn is essential.

It is also an AI-native role. You will use AI tools such as Claude or GitHub Copilot every day to plan, create and maintain tests, grow our automation and help build quality in as Flexigrant modernises. AI fluency will be explored at interview, so be ready to show how you work.

We are remote-first: you will work with colleagues across locations and are trusted to work wherever you are based.

Key Responsibilities

• You will plan, design and run manual testing across Flexigrant, including exploratory, functional, regression and edge-case testing.
• You will build and maintain automated tests and help grow our automated test coverage.
• You will work with developers and the Product Manager to refine requirements and turn them into clear, testable acceptance criteria.
• You will reproduce and document issues clearly, giving developers concise, actionable feedback so they can resolve them quickly.
• You will carry out API testing and use SQL to validate data and investigate issues.
• You will support releases each sprint, balancing planned testing with reactive support, and take part in refinement, sprint planning, stand-ups and retrospectives.
• You will use AI tooling as a core part of your daily workflow to improve testing processes and speed up delivery.
• You will share product knowledge across the team and help improve our QA processes and practices.

Qualifications

• 4+ years in a software QA or testing role, ideally within an Agile team.
• Strong manual testing skills (exploratory, functional, regression and edge-case), including web applications across devices and browsers.
• Experience with automated testing tools such as Selenium or Cypress.
• API testing experience (for example Postman) and working knowledge of SQL for data validation.
• The ability to turn requirements from meetings and conversations into test cases and testable acceptance criteria.
• Experience with version control and CI/CD pipelines.
• Daily use of AI tools such as Claude or GitHub Copilot, with the judgement to prompt, steer and critically review their output.
• Excellent attention to detail and time management, with the ability to prioritise several test items at once.
• A collaborative, patient communicator who builds trusted relationships with developers and product colleagues.
• Interest or experience in AI-assisted and agentic testing workflows (desirable).
• ISTQB Foundation (CTFL) or BCS Foundation Certificate in Software Testing, or a further ISTQB, test automation, API testing or Agile certification (desirable).
• Familiarity with accessibility testing and WCAG (desirable).

Requirements

No degree or formal qualification is required. Demonstrable QA experience matters most.
