About the role
- Lead end-to-end QA for the Moca product suite: strategy, planning, execution, reporting, and continuous improvement.
- Define and evolve the QA roadmap, tooling, and processes (test strategy, risk-based testing, release gates, defect triage, quality metrics).
- Provide structured, actionable feedback on product requirements, UX flows, acceptance criteria, and edge cases; champion testability in design and architecture reviews.
- Own test planning: create and maintain comprehensive test plans, test cases, data sets, and traceability to requirements.
- Balance automation and manual testing; identify automation candidates and oversee robust, maintainable test suites (API, UI, integration, regression, smoke).
- Establish and monitor quality KPIs (defect escape rate, test coverage, MTTR, flake rate, release health); communicate quality status and risks to stakeholders.
- Implement shift-left practices: embed QA in early discovery, grooming, and code reviews; coach engineers on quality ownership.
- Coordinate release readiness: manage test environments, test data, release verification, go/no-go criteria, and post-release validation.
- Lead defect management: root-cause analysis, prioritization, and prevention; drive quality improvements through retrospectives and CAPA actions.
- Mentor and develop QA team members; scale QA capabilities via standards, documentation, and knowledge sharing.
- Collaborate with Security/DevOps on performance, reliability, and security testing best practices; ensure compliance with relevant standards.
Requirements
- 7+ years in QA/Software Quality roles with 2+ years leading QA initiatives or teams in a fast-paced product environment.
- Strong expertise in test strategy, risk-based testing, requirements analysis, and release management.
- Hands-on experience with test automation frameworks and tools (e.g., Playwright/Cypress/WebdriverIO, pytest/Jest, Postman/Newman, REST/GraphQL tools).
- Proficiency with CI/CD and version control (e.g., GitHub/GitLab Actions, Jenkins, CircleCI); experience integrating automated tests into pipelines.
- Solid understanding of modern web/mobile architectures, APIs, microservices, and cloud environments.
- Experience with non-functional testing: performance (e.g., k6, JMeter), reliability, accessibility, and security testing practices.
- Data-driven mindset with experience defining and reporting quality metrics and OKRs.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management; able to translate technical quality issues into business impact and recommendations.
- Web3 familiarity (nice to have, not required):
- Understanding of wallets and signing flows (e.g., MetaMask, WalletConnect, EIP-712 typed data), basic key management concepts.
- Exposure to smart contracts and EVM tooling (reading Solidity/ABIs, Foundry/Hardhat test basics, contract events).
- Experience testing dApp UX with wallet connectors, chain switching, and handling pending/confirmed/failed on-chain states.
- Awareness of token standards (ERC-20/721/1155), approvals/permits, and common failure modes (reverts, RPC errors, reorgs).
- Light exposure to wallet-aware E2E automation (e.g., Synpress or Playwright with mocked providers) is a plus.
