QA Engineer

MeteorOps · remote

About the role For a small, fast-moving team building a multi-tenant CRM/e-commerce system (Django/Postgres backend; React admin; Angular storefront; a couple of Node microservices). Development velocity is currently blocked by manual QA—especially in high-risk financial areas (refunds, credits, settlements). We’re hiring a fully-remote Freelance QA Automation Engineer to design and own test automation, wire it into CI, and unblock safe, confident releases. Strong overlap with Israel time is important; onboarding and domain knowledge are primarily in Hebrew. Capacity: 60h / Month What you'll do Define and own the QA strategy: test levels (API/e2e), environments, data, coverage targets, reporting. Stand up automation from scratch (framework selection, repo scaffolding, conventions/utilities). Prioritize and automate money-critical flows first: refunds/credits, payment provider integrations, ledgers, orders/reservations, webhooks, retries/idempotency. Integrate suites into CI/CD: PR gates, deploy-time smoke tests, nightly runs; provide clear, actionable reports. Build reliable test data/fixtures (sandbox accounts, test cards, seeded datasets, reset tools). Translate existing manual flows into maintainable automated cases; write concise test plans/checklists. Track and reduce flakes; define release criteria; triage failures to drive down MTTR. Collaborate with engineering/product; coach teammates to contribute tests and follow QA best practices. What we're looking for Must-haves 4+ years hands-on QA automation, including building frameworks from zero. Strong JavaScript/TypeScript with Playwright or Cypress for UI; plus Python/pytest or Postman/Newman for API testing. CI experience (GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket pipelines), artifacts & reporting dashboards. Solid grasp of web apps (React/Angular), REST APIs, and basic SQL (Postgres). Proven work testing payment flows (refunds, credits, settlements, webhooks) and other high-risk financial features. Comfortable owning a roadmap, making pragmatic trade-offs, and communicating clearly with stakeholders. Hebrew fluency (onboarding and much of the domain context are in Hebrew). Nice-to-haves Familiarity reading Django code; factories/fixtures; Django admin. Experience with Israeli acquirers or Stripe-like gateways. Multi-tenant systems, roles/permissions, complex back-office workflows. Basic performance/security testing (e.g., k6/Locust). Logistics Contract, fully remote; strong overlap with Asia/Jerusalem hours. Initial engagement ~3–6 months, with potential extension. ‍
