Junior QA Engineer
At Zeelo, we're on a mission to empower opportunities through smart, sustainable transportation. As the leading smart bus platform for companies and schools, we use our proprietary AI-powered technology to connect people to work and education, especially in areas underserved by public transport. We believe in quality from the ground up and foster a culture of collaboration, curiosity, and continuous improvement. We're a 100% carbon-neutral company with a goal to run a fully electric fleet by 2030, and we're looking for the next generation of talent to help us ensure our products are as robust and reliable as our mission.
The Role:
Are you a recent graduate with an insatiable curiosity for how things work? Do you enjoy breaking things to understand them better? We are seeking a highly motivated Junior QA Engineer to join our dynamic team. This is a fantastic opportunity to kick-start your career in technology, ensuring the quality of the platform that powers thousands of daily journeys.
You won't just be a tester; you'll be a quality advocate. We're looking for someone who isn't afraid to ask "why?" and can work with product and development teams to find issues before they're even coded. You'll be a key part of ensuring our technology—the brain behind our smart, sustainable bus networks—is robust, reliable, and user-friendly.
What You'll Do:
- Collaborate with Product Leads and Developers during the design phase to identify potential issues, edge cases, and user scenarios no one has thought about.
- Help developers identify their blind spots by bringing a fresh, user-focused perspective to the development process.
- Find and articulate potential issues in product requirements and designs before any code is written.
- Thoroughly test new features across our technology platform, from rider apps to our internal routing software, thinking creatively to find defects.
- Execute the team's regression test pack to ensure product stability.
- Identify, document, and track bugs through their entire lifecycle.
- Work closely with developers to investigate issues and verify fixes.
- Communicate your findings clearly, both verbally and in writing, to technical and non-technical team members.
What We're Looking For:
- A recent university graduate in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field.
- Deep-seated curiosity: You have a natural desire to explore systems, understand their inner workings, and uncover potential problems.
- Excellent communicator: You can articulate complex issues simply and are not afraid to ask for clarification or challenge assumptions respectfully.
- A self-starter: You are hungry to learn, take initiative, and can work independently with guidance and mentorship.
- Strong analytical mindset: You possess a logical approach to problem-solving and have a keen eye for detail.
- Resilience and a collaborative spirit: You can handle constructive feedback and enjoy working as part of a team to achieve a common goal.
Bonus Points (Nice to Have):
- Exposure to a programming or scripting language (like Python or JavaScript) through coursework or personal projects.
- Any internship or project experience related to software development or testing.
- Familiarity with the basics of web technologies (HTML, CSS).
What We Offer:
- A competitive entry-level salary and benefits package.
- Direct mentorship and a structured learning path.
- A friendly, supportive, and collaborative work environment.
- The opportunity to make a real impact on our products from day one.
