QA Engineer (contractor)

Income inequality is rising and 1 in 4 Americans have $0 saved for retirement. We understand that most people want to take advantage of their employer benefits—like a 401(k) program or employee stock purchase program—but they might not be able to afford losing hundreds of dollars in paycheck deductions every month. That’s why we built Lendtable: We help our customers max out their benefits and give them the money to replace their contributions, so they can secure their financial future without losing the money they need for daily expenses. We are venture-backed by Y Combinator, Valor Equity Partners, Softbank, and heavy hitters like the former COO of Venmo and the President of Impossible Foods.

We are looking for a QA engineer that is comfortable taking a high degree of ownership for their program vision and execution of ideas. We’re looking for someone who has an eye for detail, is obsessed with quality processes and outcomes, and values efficiency. Beyond a strong background in manual and automated testing, a successful candidate will have experience working on unstructured problems, as well as detecting, investigating, and troubleshooting bug/production issues.
