Quality Assurance (QA) Tester - remote

Maharishi Foundation International (MFI) is a US-registered non-profit that supports the development of new technologies and outreach opportunities for the worldwide Transcendental Meditation® (TM®) organisations. Over the past 60 years, more than 10 million people worldwide have learned the TM technique through personal instruction by tens of thousands of certified teachers. 

MFI is a growing, fully-remote team of around 50 people, located around the globe but mainly in North America and Europe. As an organisation we are committed to leveraging modern technology and progressive management practices to make the TM technique and its related programmes more available to people everywhere. 

We favor a healthy and balanced work environment with opportunities for personal development.

As MFI’s first QA Tester, you will play your part in ensuring quality throughout the company, beginning with developing a deep familiarity with its products: React Native iOS and Android apps used by students and further members of the TM community, and a web app primarily used by teachers to manage students as they progress through learning TM. 

You will work directly with product, design and our engineering team to ensure high quality releases.

 

You love to improve mobile and web products, by putting a great emphasis on adhering to and improving testing procedures. You are conscientious and able to give clear, full, and actionable feedback on bugs you find in testing.

You have a service-oriented mindset, and seek to understand and create sustainable solutions to problems where you see them.

You have experience in manual testing of mobile and web applications and can demonstrate ability in this work through high quality references from prior roles.

Skills and Requirements 

 

Bonus points if you have 

If you are passionate about this work but do not have all of the skills listed we are still interested in hearing from you! 

Our pay levels are set according to a formula that combines above-median market rate data for the role (we use 55th percentile of New York market rate for this role, based on Payscale data) adjusted for your local cost of living based on Numbeo data. For Engineering roles including this one, we pay the mid-point between unadjusted New York market rate and your locally adjusted formula rate.

 

We take the issue of equitable pay very seriously, and we apply our pay formula to all workers who work 80% or more of full time hours with us.

 

We care about diversity - we strive to ensure all of our team feel included and can bring their whole selves to work but we also know that this work is never ‘done’ or complete, and that we can always improve.

Our team is fully remote, living and working across 20 countries across the world, and we’d love to hear how you can add to our special culture at MFI.
