Type / duration / rate: 6+ months with a possibility of extension 

About the role

Join a quality engineering team supporting a consumer payments and wallet platform. You'll coordinate day-to-day regression operations: prioritizing and tracking the team's weekly test requests, keeping test-management data accurate, and monitoring automated workflows.

Responsibilities

1. Weekly task management and prioritization ( primary ). Own the team's work-tracking board. Sequence incoming test requests, set priorities, assign and track tasks, and keep the board accurate as scope changes. Make routine calls independently, such as ordering work, merging overlapping requests, and rescheduling, and escalate anything that affects committed coverage.
2. Test-management upkeep. Link scheduled test suites to tracking items using documented rules, create release tracking hierarchies from templates, and run regular checks that the test-results platform and defect tracker agree.
3. Workflow monitoring. Confirm scheduled automation completes correctly and resolve routine exceptions using a runbook.

Required qualifications

1. [3+] years in QA, test operations, program or project coordination, or release quality, including ownership of a schedule or work board.
2. Experience with a defect-tracking system and a test-management platform, including bulk updates and verifying changes.
3. Ability to prioritize competing requests and communicate trade-offs to stakeholders.
4. Strong attention to detail and clear written communication.
5. Comfort following detailed procedures and escalating ambiguity.

Preferred qualifications [TBD]

1. Experience using AI tooling in day-to-day work.
2. Payments, identity, or mobile-platform familiarity.
3. Experience with CI or automated-test infrastructure.
4. Basic scripting (Python preferred).
5. Experience coordinating across multiple teams.

Working style

You'll shadow a team member for the first few weeks, then take increasing ownership of the weekly plan. Clear guidelines define which decisions you make independently and which are escalated. A runbook is provided. Access to internal systems is granted after start, so please factor that into availability.
