Job description

📸 QA Analyst / QA Specialist (Media, Data & Multi-Platform)

Salary : $85,000 – $95,000 CAD

Location : Toronto, ON

Work Model : Hybrid / Remote (Canada-based)

✨ The Opportunity

We’re a growing media and technology company looking for a highly detail-oriented QA Analyst / Specialist to take clear ownership of quality across our entire software ecosystem.

This role is for someone who is comfortable going through software with a fine-tooth comb , identifying issues others miss, and clearly calling out what needs to change so it can be fixed properly.

You’ll be testing a complex, real-world platform that includes :

  • A Windows desktop application
  • A web portal
  • A mobile app
  • Photo & video capture, processing, and delivery
  • Scheduling, registration, and data tabulation systems
  • Emerging AI-driven features

If you’re thorough, opinionated about quality (in a constructive way), and communicate clearly without being noisy or political, this role will suit you well.

🎯 Key Responsibilities

Cross-Platform Functional Testing

Execute deep functional, integration, and regression testing across :

  • Windows desktop application (Windows OS only)
  • Web application (cross-browser testing)
  • Mobile application
  • Validate data flow, system interactions, and failure points across platforms
  • Photo & Video Quality Assurance

  • Test media capture, file handling, exports, uploads, and playback
  • Proactively surface issues related to :

  • File corruption
  • Large or inconsistent file sizes
  • Low-resolution or degraded media
  • Failed, partial, or delayed uploads
  • Data Validation & Tabulation

  • Rigorously test scheduling, registration, and tabulation logic
  • Validate calculations, totals, rankings, and record integrity
  • Identify discrepancies and clearly flag actionable fixes for developers
  • Test Planning & Ownership

  • Design and maintain clear, structured test plans, test cases, and scripts
  • Translate product requirements and real-world usage into practical test scenarios
  • Continuously improve test coverage based on observed issues
  • Defect Reporting & Follow-Through

  • Identify, document, prioritize, and track defects using tools like Jira and Azure.
  • Ensure issues are :

  • Clearly reproducible
  • Properly scoped
  • Actionable for development
  • Speak up when fixes are incomplete or introduce regressions
  • Task Coordination & Development Support

  • Assist in organizing, prioritizing, and tracking software development tasks related to QA findings
  • Help break down larger issues into clear, actionable development tasks
  • Support sprint planning and backlog grooming from a quality and risk perspective
  • Monitor task progress to ensure fixes are completed correctly and on schedule
  • Flag stalled, unclear, or under-scoped work that may impact quality or timelines
  • Real-World & Production Environment Testing

  • Test software under real-world conditions, including unreliable networks, large data volumes, and time-sensitive workflows
  • Identify failure modes that occur in live production environments, not just ideal test cases
  • Validate recovery behavior after crashes, power loss, network drops, or partial data writes
  • Evaluate usability and error messaging for non-technical operators working under time pressure
  • Collaboration & Communication

  • Work closely with the CTO, Project Manager, and Developers
  • Communicate findings clearly, directly, and respectfully
  • Advocate for software quality and integrity
  • 🔑 Essential Skills & Qualifications

  • 3+ years of professional QA or software testing experience
  • Mandatory experience with at least one of :

  • Photo or video processing software
  • Media file handling systems
  • Data-heavy or tabulation-driven applications
  • Proven experience testing Windows desktop, web, and mobile applications
  • Strong attention to detail and structured thinking
  • Comfortable raising concerns, asking for changes, and defending quality decisions
  • 🌟 Nice-to-Have (Assets)

  • Experience with test automation tools (e.g., Selenium, Cypress)
  • Database testing experience using SQL
  • QA certifications (e.g., ISTQB)
  • 💼 Compensation

    $85,000 – $95,000 CAD, based on experience and domain expertise

    If this sounds like a fit, we’d like to hear from you. Apply with your resume and a brief note outlining your QA experience.
