What Were Building

Were a small team inside TransPerfect building a massive internal platform a low-code application builder thats powering how our entire company operates. Its ambitious its complex and its not done. Thats exactly why its fun.

Think:

Not just a bug-logging role

Youll shape quality standards and help build testing infrastructure from the ground up

Complex data-driven interfaces that need thorough thoughtful QA

Enterprise-scale impact without enterprise-level red tape

We operate more like a startup embedded inside a global company. We move fast figure things out as we go and need people who are excited to make sure what we build actually worksreliably at scale every time.

What Youll Actually Be Doing

You wont just find bugs. Youll help define what quality means for this platform.

Write execute and maintain manual and automated test cases for a drag-and-drop application builder

Identify document and track bugs with clear reproducible steps

Collaborate closely with frontend engineers to catch issues early in the dev cycle

Help build out regression test suites as features evolve

Contribute to QA processes and documentation that grow with the team

Participate in sprint planning and review to understand whats being shipped and what needs coverage

The Kind of QA Engineer This Role Needs

Were not looking for someone who just runs a checklist and closes tickets.

Were looking for someone who:

Asks what could go wrong here before a feature ships

Is comfortable when specs are incomplete or evolving

Can think from the users perspective not just the test plan

Takes ownership of quality

Communicates clearly with engineers not just in Jira

Wants a career in quality engineering not just a job

If youve worked somewhere perfectly structured with locked-down processes: this will feel different. If youve ever found a bug no one else caught and felt genuinely good about it: youll fit right in.

Core Technical Skills

We dont expect you to know everything on day one. You should have a solid foundation in:

QA Fundamentals

Understanding of the software developer lifecycle (SDLC) and QA methodologies

Experience writing test cases test plans and bug reports

Familiarity with functional regression integration and exploratory testing

Comfort working in Agile/Scrum environments

Tools & Platforms

Bug tracking tools: Jira Azure DevOps or similar

Basic understanding of browser developer tools for frontend debugging

Familiarity with API testing concepts (Postman or similar is a plus)

Automation (Preferred Not Required)

Exposure to test automation frameworks: Playwright Cypress Selenium or similar

Basic scripting ability in JavaScript TypeScript or Python

Understanding of CI/CD pipelines and how automated tests fit in

A Design Mindset

We need QA engineers who care about UX not just pass/fail.

You notice when something works technically but feels broken to a user

You think about edge cases that live in the gap between spec and reality

You can communicate UX observations clearly to engineers and PMs

What Its Like Working Here

Lets be real:

Were building something big with a small team

The structure isnt perfect

Priorities can shift

Were figuring some things out as we go

But also:

Youll have real ownership over qualitynot just a slice of a ticket queue

Your findings will actually change what ships

You wont be stuck running the same regression suite forever

Youll help define how QA evolves on this platform

Why This Role Is Worth It

If youre looking for:

A highly structured perfectly documented test environment this isnt it

A chance to build quality practices from the ground up this is it

Real ownership at the start of your QA career this is it

This is a role for someone who wants to:

Build not just execute

Influence what ships not just report what broke

Grow into a QA engineer who understands the whole product

The Basics

Bachelors degree or equivalent experience (Computer Science IT or related field preferred)

02 years of QA or software testing experience (internship or project work counts)

Strong attention to detail and analytical thinking

Clear written communication youll be writing a lot of bug reports

AI can be a useful tool but our engineers are expected to function without it

Youll probably love it here.
