Senior Quality Assurance Test Engineer Contractor

(South America, Remote)

Planorama plans and designs the UI/UX of software applications through modern product management and design practices. We focus on user-focused UI/UX design, and deliver everything the development and QA teams need to execute. As a Planorama Quality Assurance (QA) Test Writer, you will work collaboratively with our design team and software documentation writers to author test cases that sufficiently test each feature and groups of features.

Our customers are generally U.S.-based and come from a variety of industry verticals.

Our QA test engineers…

• THINK BIG, WORK DETAILED: Love to understand the big picture, and at the same time, think through the details and boundary conditions that someone could encounter as the use the application
• HONEST: Speak up when something doesn’t look or feel right
• DRIVEN: Challenge themselves and the team to learn and do better
• COLLABORATIVE: Communicate well and often, and are used to working in remote teams
• PROCESS-ORIENTED: Understand the value of process, versus being a “lone ranger”

If this sounds like you, and you’re available for at least 10 hours/week remote contract work, let’s talk.
