Job description
Online interview
Although this position is for an automation tester, it is very important for us to give you room for growth, which is why we have a growth plan prepared for you.
If you are interested in eventually becoming a Software Engineer, you will have that opportunity in the future. Depending on your current knowledge and skills, this should be possible after about 1-2 years. We will help you choose a programming language to specialize in, as well as provide you with a project to work in where your team members will support you in your transition.
About the company
At the beginning of 2021, we created a QA Team that currently consists of three specialists. Due to a large number of new projects and growing QA needs, we are looking to expand this team.

You can read about some of our projects and clients on our website (Our Services page) or Clutch. The important aspect is that we mainly work with startups, so our projects are early in the development stage. This means that you don't need to worry about maintaining legacy systems.
About the position
We are looking for a person who will become a part of our on-site team that includes engineers, UX designers, and a Project Manager. Above all, you will cooperate with our engineers and help them with ensuring the quality of the software. This can include writing E2E tests for web and mobile applications, developing, maintaining, and improving QA processes.
We will give you a freedom of action within the team, so we expect you to be an independent, meticulous, and detail-oriented individual. It is important to us that you understand the role of QA within the software development process well. We require you to have some experience in a similar position as well. It would also be helpful if you had some experience in at least one project where you were the main person responsible for QA.
Above all, we require:
- commercial experience with writing automatic E2E scripts, using tools such as Cypress, Selenium or Detox,
- fluency in at least one programming language – preferred JavaScript,
- good communication skills (in English as well) – you will be closely working with the whole team: engineers, PM, designers, and to some degree the client. Your daily tasks will require communication mostly with our local team, but some things will be discussed directly with the client,
- independence – you have to organize your own work. You will be responsible for taking care of quality assurance procedures (choosing tools and technologies, analyzing data, being involved in the release, etc.),
- good analytical skills – you will work with complex business requirements, and you should be able to help the development team with ensuring the quality of the software we create.
Benefits:
At Software Mansion, keeping our employees happy and healthy is our top priority. The below perks are simply some of the ways that we show we care.
We take care of our employees’ wellbeing by providing:
- flexible working hours - work whenever you like, as long as you are able to accommodate the needs of your projects,
- 26 days of paid vacation leave (for employees on all types of contracts),
- private healthcare – get professional medical care for you and your family,
- sports packages - ability to obtain a sports card from Medicover Sport,
- therapist consultations - seeing as times have been tough lately due to the pandemic and other factors, we are currently, providing free consultations with a therapist to all of our employees,
- nutritious breakfasts and snacks that are available every day at the office.
We actively support our employees’ growth and development by:
- financing a training budget for all employees,
- providing each employee with 3 paid R&D days during the year that you can use to work on educational side projects,
- assigning each employee a mentor for their first 3 months on the job,
- organizing group training sessions for technical and non-technical skills,
- encouraging work-related initiatives such as presenting at conferences, writing blog posts, or organizing your own workshops within the company.
You can get to know all of your co-workers better by:
- meeting everyone at our monthly All Hands sessions accompanied by pizza, sushi & beer,
- preparing for a delicious feast during our monthly company breakfast buffets,
- sign up for one of our sports clubs, such as rock climbing or volleyball, or organize your own with our help,
- taking part in one of our many workshops where you can get to know your co-workers better and learn things such as how to prepare sushi or what it takes to make the perfect espresso,
- relaxing at our Software Mansion Mansion - we’ve recently organized workation trips for employees to places such as Masuria and The Canary Island, and are hoping to make it a tradition!
