QA & Automation Engineer

About Anchor: Service businesses — accounting and bookkeeping firms, agencies, IT providers, HR consultancies — lose absurd amounts of time and money between "the client said yes" and "the money is in the bank." Anchor closes that entire loop: a proposal becomes a signed agreement, the agreement drives billing automatically, payments collect themselves, and everything reconciles into the accounting stack.

Customers describe it as taking a genuinely complex domain and making it disappear — 4.9/5 on G2, based on 122 reviews.

We’re looking for a QA & Automation Engineer to join our growing team at a point where quality and automation are becoming a key part of how we scale. You’ll combine hands-on manual testing with automation, building test coverage we can truly rely on as the product grows.

• You’ll work closely with Product and Engineering from the early stages of a feature, in a highly collaborative R&D environment where people are professional, supportive, and genuinely enjoyable to work with.

• Build, maintain, and continuously improve comprehensive automated test coverage for new and existing features.
• Plan and perform hands-on manual and exploratory testing with a strong user and product perspective.
• Collaborate closely with Product and Engineering from feature kickoff through release, identifying risks and edge cases early.
• Take ownership of assigned features, from understanding requirements and planning the test approach through release readiness.
• Leverage AI tools to accelerate test planning, automation development, and day-to-day QA work.
• Continuously identify opportunities to improve QA processes and overall product quality.

Requirements:

• 3+ years of hands-on QA experience, including strong manual testing experience and at least 1 year of test automation experience.
• Strong ability to independently plan test coverage for complex features, user flows, and edge cases.
• Experience developing and maintaining automated tests using frameworks such as Playwright, Cypress, or similar.
• Hands-on experience with AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, or similar.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with a respectful, collaborative, and positive approach.
• Comfortable working in a dynamic startup environment where priorities can shift quickly.
• Ability to think beyond written requirements and evaluate the product from the user’s perspective.
• Graduate of a recognized professional QA training program, such as Basmach (IDF School for Computer Professions) or an equivalent professional program.
• ISTQB certification is a plus.
• Anchor values: Heart, Ownership, Grit, Exponential Value.
