QA Software Tester (Learning Tech Software / Web Apps)
We build smart web applications that train people for real-world performance. You’ll make sure every click, load, and screen works exactly as it should.
Our platform supports training and assessment in defence, aerospace, and other mission-critical sectors. It’s a complex, .NET-based web application built on the Microsoft stack — and it must perform flawlessly across devices, browsers, and user environments.
We’re hiring a QA Software Tester with strong experience testing web applications — not just for bugs, but for responsiveness, usability, and capability under real-world conditions. You'll play a key role in ensuring our front-end and back-end systems work seamlessly together.
What you’ll be doing:
- Testing a large-scale .NET web application used by clients
- Verifying layout, responsiveness, and functionality across browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, etc.) and devices (desktop, tablet, mobile)
- Running structured test cases and exploratory testing to identify UI, UX, and functional issues
- Reproducing and clearly documenting bugs using tools like Jira or Azure DevOps
- Supporting regression testing, cross-browser testing, and release validation
- Collaborating with developers and product teams to ensure issues are understood and resolved quickly
- Helping improve QA standards, tooling, and documentation as we grow
What you’ll bring:
- Strong hands-on experience testing complex web applications in a commercial environment
- Solid understanding of how modern web apps work — HTTP, cookies, APIs, sessions, rendering, responsiveness
- Experience testing across a variety of browsers, screen sizes, and device types
- Familiarity with the Microsoft tech stack (.NET Core, Azure, SQL Server)
- Ability to write clear, actionable bug reports and work collaboratively with developers
- (Bonus) Knowledge of automated testing tools like Selenium or Cypress
Why this matters:
In the sectors we serve, users don’t just expect a smooth experience — they depend on it. Whether they’re on a laptop in an office or a tablet in the field, your work ensures our platform is responsive, reliable, and ready for the real world.
