Base Career helps you apply smarter for this job.
Key skills for this role
You will test our web application and backend services across the full release cycle: planning and running exploratory and functional testing, writing clear and useful bug reports, and steadily growing your automation skills by contributing Playwright tests to our existing suite.
You will work closely with our engineers and product team rather than testing in isolation at the end of the process. We use AI where it makes sense in how we build and test, and you will learn to use it as an accelerator: faster test design, data generation and repetitive checks, with your own judgement on what is actually correct.

• Solid testing foundations. Two to three years of hands-on software testing experience, ideally on web applications and APIs, with good judgement about what to test and why.
• Curious and thorough. You like exploring how things break, you notice the small things, and you take pride in clear, precise bug reports.
• Some automation experience. You have written automated tests before (Playwright, Cypress, Selenium or similar) and want to build on that. Building a framework from scratch is not expected.
• Comfortable with the technical side. You can read logs, run a basic SQL query, call an API with a tool like Postman, and follow what a TypeScript codebase is doing at a high level.
• Clear communicator. You can explain a problem clearly to an engineer, a product manager or a founder, and you ask questions when requirements are unclear rather than guessing.
• Practical about AI. You are open to using AI tools to work faster and keen to learn where they help, where they do not, and how to check their output.
• Care for correctness. You understand why data accuracy matters, ideally with some exposure to financial services, fintech or another regulated or high-trust environment.
• Experience testing AI or LLM-based features, or any feature with non-deterministic output.
• Exposure to lending or broker workflows, or financial document processing.
• Familiarity with any part of our stack: TypeScript, Nuxt, Node services, PostgreSQL and AWS.
• Exposure to API testing, SQL, or basic performance or accessibility testing.
• ISTQB Foundation or a similar testing qualification.
• You know our product and its key workflows well enough to test with confidence and spot risk early.
• You are a regular contributor to the Playwright suite, and the tests you write are reliable and trusted by the team.
• Fewer defects reach customers in the workflows you cover, especially our document and lending flows.
• Engineers seek out your input before and during development, not only at the end.
• You use AI tooling to work faster day to day without losing rigour, and you know where your own judgement stays in the loop.
This is a chance to grow as a tester at a company where quality directly affects real financial outcomes. You will get variety, real responsibility, and the chance to build your automation and AI skills alongside experienced engineers in a team that takes both speed and correctness seriously. If you want to learn fast and see your work matter, this is it.
