QA Engineer (Manual & Automation)

About the Role:

Squaretalk is looking for a QA Engineer with a balanced focus on manual and automation testing to join our Sofia-based team. In this role, you will validate new features through hands-on exploration, and translate regression and repetitive testing work into reliable, maintainable automated test suites — all within a fast-paced Scrum environment.

You will work closely with developers, product managers, and DevOps engineers to ensure our platform remains robust, intuitive, and reliable for our customers.

What You'll Do:

• Analyze functional and technical requirements to develop detailed test plans and test cases.
• Conduct manual exploratory, functional, and regression testing of web applications and APIs.
• Design and write automated test scripts using WebdriverIO (WDIO) for UI regression and smoke testing.
• Review feature specifications and contribute to defining clear, testable acceptance criteria.
• Maintain and evolve the test automation suite, and help integrate it with Jenkins CI/CD pipelines.
• Execute and monitor automated test runs, analyze failures, and escalate issues as needed.
• Collaborate with developers to identify bugs early and troubleshoot issues in staging or production environments.
• Document test plans, test cases, and testing results clearly and systematically.
• Actively participate in Scrum ceremonies: sprint planning, backlog grooming, daily standups, and retrospectives.
  
  

• 3+ years of experience in QA testing, including both manual and automation testing.
• Proficiency in manual test case design, execution, and defect tracking.
• Hands-on experience with WebdriverIO (WDIO) for test automation.
• Hands-on experience with performance testing tools such as JMeter, Artillery, or similar.
• Solid understanding of testing web front-ends (UI) and RESTful APIs.
• Experience with Jenkins CI/CD or similar tools for automating test execution and reporting.
• Familiarity with Git, bug-tracking tools (e.g., JIRA), and test documentation practices.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work closely with cross-functional teams.
  
  

• Programming skills in JavaScript (used for test automation).
• Experience with the Playwright automation framework.
• Experience with mobile testing tools such as Appium or Espresso.
• Familiarity with React-based applications.
• Basic DevOps or server-side knowledge (Docker, Linux CLI, HTTP fundamentals).
• Experience with VoIP, Asterisk, or SIP/WebRTC platforms.
• ISTQB certification (Foundation Level or higher).
• Experience with test reporting/observability tools (e.g., Allure, ReportPortal) or API testing tools (e.g., Postman/Newman).
  
  

• Hybrid working model (4 days from the office, 1 day working from home)
• Competitive salary
• Cibus card
• Exciting opportunity to join a successful company, with big ambitions for the future.
