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.

  • Validate data flow, system interactions, and failure points across platforms.
  • Photo & Video Quality Assurance

  • Surface issues related to file corruption, large or inconsistent file sizes, low‑resolution or degraded media, and failed / partial / delayed uploads.
  • Data Validation & Tabulation

  • Defect Reporting & Follow-Through

  • Identify, document, prioritize, and track defects using Jira and Azure.
  • Ensure defects are reproducible, properly scoped, and actionable.
  • Speak up when fixes are incomplete or introduce regressions.
  • Task Coordination & Development Support

  • Assist in organizing, prioritizing, and tracking QA findings.
  • Help break down larger issues into actionable development tasks.
  • Support sprint planning and backlog grooming from a risk perspective.
  • Monitor task progress and flag stalled or under‑scoped work.
  • Real-World & Production Environment Testing

  • Test under real‑world conditions : unreliable networks, large data volumes, time-sensitive workflows.
  • Identify failure modes that occur in live production.
  • Validate recovery after crashes, power loss, network drops, or partial data writes.
  • Evaluate usability and error messaging for non‑technical operators.
  • Collaboration & Communication

  • Work closely with CTO, Project Manager, and Developers.
  • Communicate findings clearly 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.

  • Comfortable raising concerns 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).
