- Shape the QA roadmap by setting up effective testing processes, tools, and metrics, ensuring smooth release cycles and data-driven quality tracking.
- Collaborate early and often with product and engineering to refine requirements, user flows, and acceptance criteria — advocating for testability and great user experiences.
- Plan and execute testing at every level (manual and automated): API, UI, integration, regression, and smoke — ensuring solid coverage and reliability.
- Drive smart automation — identify high-value test cases for automation and maintain stable, scalable test suites.
- Track and communicate quality metrics such as defect trends, coverage, and release health to keep the team aligned and proactive.
- Champion a shift-left mindset by embedding QA practices early in discovery and development, and helping engineers take ownership of quality.
- Oversee release readiness — from environment setup and data prep to go/no-go decisions and post-release validation.
- Lead defect management — prioritize fixes, uncover root causes, and turn insights into prevention and process improvements.
- Mentor and scale the QA function, building documentation, standards, and best practices that grow with the team.
- Partner with DevOps and Security to strengthen performance, reliability, and security testing — ensuring compliance and operational excellence.

- Proficiency with CI/CD and version control (e.g., GitHub/GitLab Actions, Jenkins, CircleCI); experience integrating automated tests into pipelines.
- Solid understanding of modern web/mobile architectures, APIs, microservices, and cloud environments.
- Experience with non-functional testing: performance (e.g., k6, JMeter), reliability, accessibility, and security testing practices.

- Excellent communication and stakeholder management; able to translate technical quality issues into business impact and recommendations.
Будет плюсом
- Understanding of wallets and signing flows (e.g., MetaMask, WalletConnect, EIP-712 typed data), basic key management concepts.
- Exposure to smart contracts and EVM tooling (reading Solidity/ABIs, Foundry/Hardhat test basics, contract events).
- Experience testing dApp UX with wallet connectors, chain switching, and handling pending/confirmed/failed on-chain states.
- Awareness of token standards (ERC-20/721/1155), approvals/permits, and common failure modes (reverts, RPC errors, reorgs).
- Light exposure to wallet-aware E2E automation (e.g., Synpress or Playwright with mocked providers) is a plus.
