Senior QA Specialist

What you’ll do

📌 Heads up before you apply!

This is a project-based recruitment – your contract will be linked to the duration of our collaboration with the client. Once the project ends, your contract with Merixstudio will also end. We expect the cooperation to be long-term: the project is planned until the end of 2025, with a potential extension into Q1 2026.

The recruitment process consists of two steps:

• a 30–45 min intro call with HR
• a technical interview (in English, around 2h)

Now, let’s talk about a project.

You’ll be joining a long-term initiative for a UK-based client in the hospitality management industry. The product is a complex, multi-module platform supporting daily operations of hotels and accommodation providers – from bookings and invoicing, to staff and guest communication.

The goal? Build a tailor-made platform from scratch for managing premium guest experiences and hotel attractions – think mud spas, horse riding, wellness rituals and more.

The stack? The platform is being developed using technologies like Node.js, AWS, GitHub, and Keycloak, with NodeJS SuperAgent used for API handling.

Your main focus will be on manual testing with a strong emphasis on regression as the project evolves. There may be opportunities to support API test automation – primarily through collaboration and code reviews, rather than hands-on scripting.

You’ll work alongside a dedicated cross-functional team and collaborate directly with the client-side Product Owner. We follow Scrum and put strong emphasis on product thinking – we’re looking for someone who not only tests features but cares about how the product works, how it’s used and how to make it better.

Who you are (must-haves)

• have strong experience in manual testing, including regression and exploratory testing;
• have good knowledge of API testing best practices and tools (e.g. Postman, Swagger, API logs);
• have worked with GitHub and have a basic understanding of TypeScript-based codebases;
• understand the specifics of payment integrations – ideally including experience with Stripe or similar gateways;
• are used to maintaining test documentation (e.g. test plans, checklists, scenarios);
• have hands-on experience in Scrum teams, with regular rituals and iteration planning;
• experience working in product teams, with close collaboration across QA, development and product;
• strong communication and problem-solving skills, both with internal teams and client stakeholders;
• are proactive and able to define and maintain the QA process in collaboration with the team;
• fluent in spoken and written English (C1).

What we’d like to see (nice-to-haves)

• hands-on experience with automated tests for API;
• experience in the hospitality or tourism sector, or with reservation, loyalty or payment systems;
• ability to write and maintain structured test cases that evolve with the product;
• experience working on long-term client projects, ideally in a software house;
• proactive attitude and ability to collaborate directly with business stakeholders.
