We are hiring a QA analyst to help us make our product Awesome Table even more awesome by making sure that it works as users expect it.

Our applications consist of multiple artifacts: Google Workspace add-ons, traditional web apps, marketing websites. Add-ons in particular live inside Google products, and as such represent an interesting challenge for a tester.

Your responsibilities:
  • Design test plans and test cases for new and existing features. Try to break our product in every possible way so that we can make it bulletproof
  • Execute manual test cases
  • Ensure the product meets user acceptance criteria
  • Plan and coordinate testing activities around releases
  • Incorporate tests into the software engineering process (Jira, build, release)
  • Identify, report and track products defects
  • Help in root cause analysis for products issues

You:
  • You have a passion for quality assurance and strong attention to details, you don’t let things slip through the cracks easily
  • You think adversarially, and like to try to break things: the first thing you’ll try when you see a form is inserting special characters or an SQL injection
  • You are relentless, and not afraid of repeating the same tests many times
  • You embrace the Modern Testing principles
  • You’re a team player

Your qualifications:
  • Experience: 2+ years as a QA analyst preferably on SaaS products. Strong knowledge of software QA methodologies, tools and processes
  • Cloud: you have experience with one of the 3 main cloud platforms. Bonus points for GCP and serverless experience
  • Project tracking tools: proficiency with spreadsheets, Github, Jira and other typical software engineering tools
  • Language: fluent English
  • Writing: you enjoy writing, you care about words and grammar, you are sharp and thorough

Benefits (subject to change depending on where you live):
  • Good compensation that gives you financial peace of mind, wherever you live
  • 30 days of paid time off including national holidays
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance (depending on the type of contract)
  • Paid parental leave

How to apply:
We want to get a sense of how you write and think. To that end, please write an email that covers at least the following:
  • Tell us why you want this job, and why our products are interesting to you
  • Tell us about an interesting/challenging test case you had to build
  • Include a link to something you're proud of having written online (or copy/paste if not public - we won't share)

Working with us requires a lot of writing/communicating, so please use your application to show off those skills.
 
Send to the email address indicated on WWR. 
 
Interview process:
  • We will first ask you a few targeted questions to be answered by email so as to get acquainted with you in writing. 
  • If that goes well, we’ll send you a technical test. 
  • You’ll then move on to an interview with a Lead QA Engineer
  • Finally, an interview with the CTO.


  • We can’t wait to hear from you!
