Quality Assurance Engineer (Modern Age QA)

About the Role

We are looking for a Modern Age QA Engineer who doesn't just "test" but thinks, questions, and evolves. If you're someone who blends solid testing fundamentals with a hunger for automation, a sharp reasoning mind, and the ability to leverage AI tools to supercharge quality this role is for you.

This is not a traditional QA role. We want someone who can adapt quickly, learn fearlessly, and operate with ownership beyond the 9-to-5 mindset.
