QA Analyst

About the Role

QKfill is software that automates filling out visa and immigration applications. We’re pre-launch, customers are circling, and every bug in our product is a bug in someone’s visa application — a wrong checkbox can mean a refused entry.

You’ll be the last quality gate before code reaches paying immigration lawyers and applicants. We need a sharp, self-directed QA who thinks like a real user trying to break the product — not someone who just executes scripts.

Core Responsibilities

• Author human test flows — scenario-based test journeys that catch real-world failure modes AI-generated checklists miss
• Run tiered release passes — smoke (per deploy), critical (pre-merge), full (weekly)
• Cross-role testing — execute flows across all 5 user roles (admin, agent, applicant, etc.)
• Multi-tenant isolation checks — verify Org A never sees Org B’s data
• AI extraction QA — verify extracted data from passports and forms matches source
• Money-path testing — Stripe checkout, subscriptions, refunds, overages (test mode)
• Bug reporting + triage — reproducible reports with P0/P1/P2/P3 discipline

Must-Have Skills

• ✓Web app testing fundamentals — modern SaaS behavior, async UI, session state
• ✓Browser DevTools fluency — Network, Console, Application tabs
• ✓Basic SQL reading — can run SELECT queries to verify DB state (no joins needed)
• ✓Reproducible bug reports — title, steps, expected, actual, env, role, screenshot
• ✓Severity discipline — P0/P1/P2/P3 with clear reasoning
• ✓Obsessive attention to detail — immigration forms have 200+ fields where one wrong checkbox = visa denial
• ✓User empathy + breaking mindset — actively tries to break things; thinks like a stressed user, not a spec executor
• ✓Self-direction — plans test sessions from a 1-paragraph spec without hand-holding
• ✓Clear async communication — written-first, time-zone-aware

Strong Bonus

• ★Immigration / visa / paralegal background
• ★Playwright literacy — can read and run existing E2E tests
• ★Postman / Insomnia / curl for API-level testing
• ★Supabase / PostgreSQL familiarity
• ★Stripe test-mode dashboard experience
• ★Prior QA experience on multi-tenant SaaS or RBAC-heavy products

Who This Role is NOT For

• ✕Someone who needs a detailed test plan handed to them before they can start
• ✕Someone who files every bug as P1 with no severity reasoning
• ✕Someone who resists exploratory testing in favor of scripted-only
• ✕Someone whose bug reports read "doesn’t work, please fix"
• ✕Someone who treats QA as a gate, not a partner

How the Week Flows

The rhythm is loose — work whichever 15–25 hours fit your week. Most weeks settle into something like this:

You’ll have plenty of autonomy on how to spend the hours. Our job is to give you clear priorities; your job is to find what’s broken before users do.
