We’re looking for talented engineers to join us in building foundational systems from the ground up.

About the Role

We’re looking for exceptional Quality Assurance Engineers who go beyond test scripts — people who think like users, attackers, and defenders.

You’ll collaborate closely with engineering teams to ensure quality, performance and usability of our products. The ideal candidate has a passion for uncovering elusive bugs, designing robust test systems, and understanding the nuances of cybersecurity workflows.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and execute comprehensive test plans and continuously up level the quality game.

• Identify and analyze defects that impact real-world user experiences — not just edge cases.

• Champion quality best practices and continuously enhance QA processes.

Qualifications Required

• 5+ years of experience in QA for complex, data-driven, or security-focused applications.

• Strong understanding of testing methodologies (functional, regression, performance, and security testing).

• Experience with test automation tools (e.g., Cypress, Playwright, Selenium, or Postman).

• Solid grasp of API testing, microservices validation, and data validation workflows.

• Basic understanding of cybersecurity concepts such as SIEM, SOC workflows, alerts, log pipelines, or incident response.

• Ability to think from an end-user perspective and simulate real-world security operations usage.

• Excellent debugging, communication, and analytical skills.

Nice to Have:

• Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and Kubernetes-based deployments.

• Exposure to security/SIEM tools.

• Experience in performance testing, load testing, or chaos testing environments.

• Prior experience in a cybersecurity company or working with data analytics pipelines.

Why to choose us ?

• Work on cutting-edge security analytics technology.

• Be part of a team that values curiosity, ownership, and precision.

• Opportunity to influence product quality at every level — from architecture to user experience.

• Competitive compensation, flexibility, and a fast-moving, collaborative environment.
